    Im really confused.

    Is she going to ban capitalism (stock markets, public companies, private properties, bonds, etc.)?

    This is communism.

    Socialist think that goverment funds should be used to help its people. You know… Society. Schools, healthcare, public infra. Things like that. Socialism does not mean banning private schools and hospitals, or that nobody could not own any land.

      I think you misunderstood my “property” word in the context of socialism. Both in communism and socialism, owning properties for means of production, labor, etc. is generally restricted, but the difference here is that in socialism you can (generally) own your own housing. Yes, this includes banning private hospitals and private schools for profit

        No it does not mean banning anything.

        Goverment sets certain stantard of public healthcare and education, but if you want something outside of it, or for some reason, like long wait time for surgery etc. you can go to private sector.
