D. Socialism attempts to redistribute wealth, but capitalism does not.

Capitalism is built around the pursuit and protection of one's private property.  Early ideas of capitalism began with thinkers like Adam Smith in the late 18th century.  In a purely capitalistic system, there would be no income redistribution by taxing those who succeed at business in order to give aid to those who aren't as successful.  

Under socialism, members of a society contribute to each other's needs and provide help to one another.  The earliest socialist efforts were somewhat small-sized communities or groups that lived and worked together cooperatively, such as the factory town reformed by Robert Owen at New Lanark, Scotland.  In the modern world, socialism generally means national measures through taxes and government programs so that those with more resources in terms of private property provide aid to those less well off.

We'll add a note here about communism, which was an extension of socialism.  Communism was called "scientific socialism" by its founders, Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels.  The "science" of it believed it was the inevitable path of economic history.  It expands the socialist project so that all members of a society have all in common and everything equal.  There is no private property; all is intended to operate communally.

Most modern governments incorporate elements from more than one system.  China is governed as a communist nation but pursues many capitalistic endeavors.  The United States runs on capitalism, but there are many government-run social programs (a form of socialism) that provide aid to those in need.

Cesar Chavez's approach to organizing farm workers to demand better working conditions was notable because
Vilka [71]
In 1962 Cesar founded the National Farm Workers Association, later to become the United Farm Workers – the UFW. He was joined by Dolores Huerta and the union was born. That same year Richard Chavez designed the UFW Eagle and Cesar chose the black and red colors. Cesar told the story of the birth of the eagle. He asked Richard to design the flag, but Richard could not make an eagle that he liked. Finally he sketched one on a piece of brown wrapping paper. He then squared off the wing edges so that the eagle would be easier for union members to draw on the handmade red flags that would give courage to the farm workers with their own powerful symbol. Cesar made reference to the flag by stating, “A symbol is an important thing. That is why we chose an Aztec eagle. It gives pride . . . When people see it they know it means dignity.”

For a long time in 1962, there were very few union dues paying members. By 1970 the UFW got grape growers to accept union contracts and had effectively organized most of that industry, at one point in time claiming 50,000 dues paying members. The reason was Cesar Chavez’s tireless leadership and nonviolent tactics that included the Delano grape strike, his fasts that focused national attention on farm workers problems, and the 340-mile march from Delano to Sacramento in 1966. The farm workers and supporters carried banners with the black eagle with HUELGA (strike) and VIVA LA CAUSA (Long live our cause). The marchers wanted the state government to pass laws which would permit farm workers to organize into a union and allow collective bargaining agreements. Cesar made people aware of the struggles of farm workers for better pay and safer working conditions. He succeeded through nonviolent tactics (boycotts, pickets, and strikes). Cesar Chavez and the union sought recognition of the importance and dignity of all farm workers.
