Progressives are NOT socialists, they are what I like to call "soft capitalists", meaning that they frown upon the "cut throat capitalism" where people make profit from ruining the lives of others. I would go so far as to say most Progressives do not consider clean water, basic food, basic education, and basic shelter to be Capitalised. In other words, Progressives stand strong for a basic "survival net" for society to keep it from regressing to past social systems such as Feudalism, Slavery, and Serfism. Progressives want a profit motive to keep good ideas flowing, but do not consider it the end all be all of society. Progressives will say "workers of the world, unite!" but do so under the banner of Capitalism, not Communism. Progressive are socially anti-authoritarian, and economically moderate left.
