Answer 2

The correct answers are:

1) It sees all members of society as equal.

2) It makes most social services, like healthcare and guarantee of work available to all.

Socialism is a politcal system in which the government has significant control over citizens. This includes determing what resources each family/household receives. Even though it limits incentive for businesses, the goal is to ultimately ensure that all members of society are living somewhat equally. This is accomplished by government control of the means of production and important social services (like healthcare).
