"Socialism isn't communism. It's health care, toll-free roads etc. with a free press and free elections."
You just pulled that definition out of your ass. That isn't socialism. Healthcare is a government policy fully compatible with any capitalist nation, same with roads, free press and free elections.
Socialism is specifically the idea that the workers should own the means of production. Literally "social ownership".
