Define socialism. The original and technically correct definition and the colloquial modern definition are wildly different from one another.

If I can keep my current quality of life or have a better one, sure.

You're going to get two answers here, corresponding to the two kinds of socialists: "My kind of socialism doesn't exist yet" and "Yes I'd immigrate to the secretly highly-developed and free nation of North Korea"

It looks like you've got a lot of people that call their version of capitalism "socialism" as well.
