Most members of capitalistic societies feel that they have more control over their own lives: where they can live, how to earn a living, or what to teach teach their children. They can participate in commerce as little or as much as they feel comfortable with, not having to fear repercussions for their choice.
Most understand that capitalist societies have varying degrees of flexibility, and are not all the same. There are benefits and disadvantages to either system.
Any political system has the capacity to become oppressive, but modern history has demonstrated that a socialist system has a much shorter life span than a capitalist society.

Do you think socialism is good or bad for the United States?
Good. Most Americans think that social programs = socialism, which isn't the case, but I'm answering as if it were. Social programs are necessary to undo the destruction of our infrastructure caused by rampant, unchecked capitalists. Actual Socialism would also be good for this country, but because of the effectiveness of anti-Soviet propaganda during the Cold War, the vast majority of American citizens disdain the idea of socialism without even knowing what it is.
