What's "socialism" anyway?

Asked by Gallup to define socialism, the largest number of respondents — about a quarter of both Democrats and Republicans — said it meant equality. Another 13 percent of Democrats, but only 7 percent of Republicans, saw it as government services, like free health care.

About 6 percent believe socialism means being social, including activity on social media.

Relatively few Democrats (13 percent), but more Republicans (23 percent) believe socialism implies government ownership.
