Under democratic socialism:

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Democratic socialism advocates for the state to assume ownership of strategic industries, such as healthcare, education, and utilities. However, private ownership of smaller businesses and industries may still be allowed. Democratic socialism also aims to expand social welfare programs and redistribute income to promote more equitable societies. Therefore, choices A, B, and D are incorrect, and choice C is a misleading statement as it is possible to separate the functions of government from the means of production in democratic socialism. Under democratic socialism, the state assumes ownership of strategic industries, but private ownership of means of production is not necessarily abolished. Taxes may be higher to fund social welfare programs and efforts to redistribute income. The government plays a role in regulating the economy and protecting workers' rights.
