Socialism debate echoes in editor review on democracy and control
The letter exchange argues that socialism aims for public ownership of utilities and direct worker influence through referenda while denying wealth confiscation.

The piece critiques the doctor’s interpretation and defends balanced reform via ballots and law rather than confiscation.
