Socialism ends when you run out of other people’s money.  There is no such thing as FREE.  Someone must pay for something that is given away for free.   A high wage earner would, and should oppose being squeezed to give away FREE.  Their quality of life declines.  What is the purpose of working hard to get ahead, when all you will be doing is handing over your income to someone else (who isn’t successful)?  A redistribution of wealth brings equal POVERTY to all.  There will be the elites in a Socialist Society.  The ones who dole out the benefits to the peasants. This poll clearly identifies the ignorance of young voters.  I actually don’t believe anyone should be given voting rights, (if they are not independent of their parents).  They have no earnings to take; to contribute to socialism.  They are that little fish hanging from the sharks belly (Ramora). Feeding off of others hard work. There are NO countries under socialism that have as much opportunity as we do here in the United States.  If you want to stifle creativity and opportunities to succeed, then embrace Socialism.  Not for me.  I’ll pass.
