What is the key question socialism attempts to answer? A. Would societies be better off supporting agricultural, rather than industrial, economies? B. Who should be in control of the industrial means of production, such as factories? C. How can serfs save themselves from life in a feudal system in countries like Russia? D. What is the best strategy a person can adopt if he wants to start his own factory?
Well think of this way this is a long answer but will help you understand the whole situation that's going on: it's based on the fact that there is an inherent struggle between the workers who are the majority, and the small % of individuals who are wealthy. If you look at history, in terms of the socialist perspective there has always been some sort of class struggle between the haves and have nots. The haves exploit the majority and the wealth climbs up to the top, while the workers compete among each-other and often demand higher wages. which leaves us to the question as who should control the factories? the wealthy or the state. if we take the control away from the wealthy and the factories are in the hands of the state/people then socialism hopes to address the issue of class inequality
so the answer would be B?
I would say so
thank you
