As a kid, 'Capitalism was regulated' and 'Socialism' meant comrades living in shitty identical boxes, waiting in breadlines for equal shares of their 'Collective Production'.
Think USSR.
Be mindful of the terms you use to describe the type of government you advocate for.
I don't want to live in a 'Socialist' nation.
I want to live in a nation with a 'Social Conscience' where capable and honest entrepreneurs can make it, monopolies don't exist, taxes and justice are equitable and a system that cares for those unable to care for themselves.
I want to live in a nation that is a hybrid of the USA I USED to know and a Norway I THINK I know; where Earth is a community of organisms living in harmony and equilibrium with the nonliving components of our environment; where democracy rules and greater-good prevails.
I want to live in a nation where healthcare is a right, not a privilege, where retirement is planned, accidents are covered, generosity is rewarded, greed is shunned; where Humanity is lifted up and Psychopathy has guardrails and consequences.
Where Education and Science rule.
I want to live in a World where 'Tolerance' means 'Limits', just like it does in engineering, mechanics and science.
"Permissible limit(s) of variation"
The majority won't beat you into being clones of themselves.
A minority would.
I want to live in a World where there is separation between 'Your Religion' and 'My Governance'.
I want to live on a planet where Humans co-exist with our Environment and get 'progressively' better at it because we never stop learning and studying and 'sciencing' our way ahead.
I want to live on a planet where I can't personally own a weapon capable of massacring a HERD of deer, or HUMANS, but our 'Trusted National Defense Organizations', can.
Why? Because, 'Out-of-Tolerance-Humans' exist.
Outliers.

Fred Brennan was shocked and told me one of these Jim Watkins N.T. Technology domain mail server names is Japanese for what a girl would say when she doesn't want to be raped, after I showed him this shot, last November.
