Well, I'm at a diadvantage, being sane and all, but here goes:

so�cial�ism     n. 
Any of various theories or systems of social organization in which the 
means of producing and distributing goods is owned collectively or by a 
centralized government that often plans and controls the economy.


There's no sane way to argue that Social Security fits into that 
definition.
