The definition of socialism is a way of organizing a society in which major industries are owned and controlled by the government rather than by individual people and companies.

One major flaw of socialism is that it provides very little incentive for people to do better since everyone is equal.

Socialism was founded by Henri de Saint-Simon in the 1820s and after his death his followers sdevised a system in which all of society would be organized. Socialism is a political term applied to an economic system in which property is held in common and not by a single person although decisions may be made separately.
