I'm not a utopian socialist. And privatization means making state-owned corporations private, so what does that have to do with what you're saying?

What you are describing is a Utopia.  Where everyone will just agree to disagree nicely and work out all of their problems.  And we can just be one big world with no states.  The world doesn't work that way.  Which is why the first thing Socialists do when they get power is to start crushing those who disagree with them and/or opposed them in their path to power.  And why they don't get along with people who believe in other forms of Socialism.  They all want the control of that big government and the power and wealth that comes with it.

And how do you not get this concept of privatization?  A company is not private when the government can just take it away from you because they don't like you or don't like your beliefs.  A private company is separate from the government and not controlled by it.  Sure, they may have to obey some regulations, but that is a FAR cry from the government just taking your company from you and handing it to someone that supports them.
