Are capitalism and socialism opposites?

Typically they are considered to be opposites, even though there are many similarities. These are some common distinctions between the two: 1) Socialism is based on Social ownership of the means of production; Capitalism is based on Private ownership of the means of production. 2) Management in socialism is based on collective-decision making and self-management; Management in capitalist firms is based on hierarchical decision-making. 3) Socialism is based on "Production for use"; capitalism is based on "Production for profit". This means that the surplus product generated is used to benefit everyone in socialism, whereas in capitalism it becomes the profit for a few private owners. 4) Socialism is generally based on economic planning; while capitalism is based on a market economy. This is not always true; there are many forms of market socialism, and most of the existing capitalist economies are actually "mixed economies".
