What about this situation is related to workers controlling the means of production at Intel?

  > workers controlling the means of production Well... usually that is done through a government. There isn't a single type of socialism just as there isn't a single type of capitalism. The government being a public entity, being a representative of the government, is in fact one way to handle said social ownership.

    Given other examples worldwide, it's a minor form of state capitalism, not socialism because again there is nothing about workers (not just any taxpayers) controlling the means of production.

      Forgive me, but I'm having a hard time reading this in any way that isn't equivalent to you declaring Scottland as fictional. It's not like there is exactly one form of socialism and anything that deviates from it in the slightest is capitalism.

        It is in the definition of the word. I never said anything that deviates is capitalism though because one can make the same argument against that too.
