How is California's high speed rail corporate welfare going?
How is that project, mass transit, corporate welfare.? Why should the United States be the only industrialized country without high speed rail?

SInce nothing is being produced in this example, it is not socialism.
Well the government is producing infrastructure that people can use. Like BIDEN said, Wi-Fi is like electricity 100 years ago.

Social control of the means of production is the classic definition of socialism. But the MAGA morons here and around the country think all government action is socialism. Social control can be by the state, the workers, or the community. Another way to say it is no private control often means of production.

The “means” includes raw materials, tools and the space needed to produce things, like a farm or a factory.

Capitalism to Socialism to Communism = Dream-State.

Dream-State for a few.

Nightmare-State for most.

Well,
I suppose there is a technological culture,
And some companies, some individuals, with an interest, a control in tech,
'Lot of scientific advancements in tech.
. . .

Electrical items are handy, entertaining,
Not that people can't be entertained without,
But they're handy, whether in solitude or community.

Though ironically they can be a dependent.
A person forgets sometimes,
How to have fun without them,
How to communicate without them,
Maybe.
. . . . . . .

I don't know about subliminally,
But has been slow and sudden moments,
Raised from birth, tech just 'there for many people.
(@Self Though maybe even a lever counts as tech?)

I'm still not sure about AI running anything, anytime soon,
Though I can imagine many more automated systems, as exist now and in the past.
Many more machines, such as AI art.
. .
Still, futures gonna take a while, before AI leaders,
Or people become cyborgs with the AI as dominant personality.
. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

More normally speaking,
People sure look at their phones a lot,
Ignore their kids in lieu of them,
Hand off education to environment of technology, TV, video games, internet, (A mistake),
Become part of 'online community, rather than local community (Often, but not always).
