It is appropriate to assume it is most likely a centre left or a centre right position. The problem is you most likely think that North Korea, Joseph Stalin and China are communist when they were not. You are most likely a proud supporter of capitalism, republicanism and constitutional monarchism. Economic inequality causes social inequality.
I know what socialism is. The problem is that I don't care about social inequality; anything trying to create equality in this aspect tends to infringe upon the freedom of others, which is something I value far more (not to mention socialist governments have always gone down the path of more and more restrictions on individual freedoms in the name of equality, even though they're not related to economics). Life itself is inequality, and one will never be able to make it equal without first hindering the individual.
Since I don't care about the group, anything that imposes itself on the individual is despotic to me.
Not a supporter of any of those either, though they've had a better track record regarding individual freedoms so far.
So you are for freedom of upperclass individuals to wage slave the lower and middle class. By you admitting there is something wrong, there is and it must be fixed. Capitalism is taking an ugly root where the rights of corperations are getting more than an individual rights. Where the average person has no say.
The bit which you said about track record is a bit silly, Communism has only been around for 100 years while monarchy/republics has been around for longer. The French first republic failed, I think if you lived in the 19th century you would be anti-democratic person and you would be quoting track records.
