Oh please. That's just stupid. That's not socialism.
My town had a vote on a parcel tax to pay for fire engines; it passed, but not by 100%. But we all have to pay the tax. That's not socialism; that's democracy.
"Socialism is an economic system characterised by social ownership of the means of production and co-operative management of the economy.[1] "Social ownership" may refer to cooperative enterprises, common ownership, state ownership, citizen ownership of equity, or any combination of these.[2] There are many varieties of socialism and there is no single definition encapsulating all of them.[3] They differ in the type of social ownership they advocate, the degree to which they rely on markets or planning, how management is to be organised within productive institutions, and the role of the state in constructing socialism.[4]"
