Conservatives love capitalism and liberals love socialism, at least you might think so by reading popular news and social media posts today. But, what are the *real* definitions, and what do people mean when they use the words in casual conversation?

And, we will delve into how the words are used in popular media today, and whether there are aspects of each that might be useful in our modern economy and the country’s future.
