Voters control the government in a liberal democracy. Under socialism, it is the sort of oligarchs whom you admire that control everything. Some of those voters in a liberal democracy happen to be industrialists, media moghuls, investors, and the like.

There are only evil people in charge under socialism. There are all sorts mucking about in a liberal democracy.

There is no such thing as a 'liberal' democracy. There is only democracy, or there is not.

There currently are no democracies in the world today. Not surprising, as it's an unstable form of government.

Do they bollocks - they are lied to by the crooks every minute of every day, as your reaction demonstrates: socialism is control by the workers, not by bosses like yours who pretend to be socialist as yours pretend to be Christian. Socialism means control by the vast majority, and if they are evil, Calvinist, there isn't much to be done.

No. It is control by the government in the name of the workers, and the workers are slaves to the government. In other words, it's a lie.

Socialism is state control.

Liberalism is the guiding Western philosophy since the 17th Century. It refers to political, social, cultural, and economic freedoms, often referred to, separately, as liberty, community, individualism, and capitalism.

Today, liberalism is often used incorrectly instead of the illiberal ideology of progressivism, which is an incremental rejection of liberalism, compared with socialism, Marxism, fascism, Nazism, monarchy, theocracy, anarchy, and the like.

Since most aspects of Western liberalism are discussed and/or voted on democratically, it is termed liberal democracy.
 
Too bad the food has jumped the shark.

I used to love their chicken sandwich, but now days they buy chicken so full of hormones and steroids that it is chewy and way to thick. I missed the way their sandwiches used to be. I still like the waffle fries.

How can it be? All State governments are the central committees of the ruling class, and the vast majority can't be a ruling class, obviously.

Nope. You are just describing your oligarchy that you live under.

Not all governments are oligarchies. The United States is organized as a federated republic.

The cut of a chicken has nothing to do with hormones or steroids. I suggest you get a better cook or learn to cook it yourself. BTW, a steroid IS a hormone. A chicken cannot live without hormones. Neither can you.

these hormones are artificially injected. They make the meat chewy and uber thick, you are a dunce who thinks he is smart, I bump into all kinds of you types. Knows just enough to think he is a stable genius.

The vast majority don't get a say, obviously. Or does every example of socialism on Earth not prove this point?

Each State and the Central Government run by and worked in the interests of the capitalists, obviously. A tiny proportion of people are capitalists, and nobody else gets a look in, not anywhere.
