The Soc half of SocDem/Soc gives greater protection from outside forces that almost certainly don't care about the locals. If you believe in the hybrid, vote for the hybrid option.
And if there is no outside investment under a capitalist system, we're going to starve for resources. It's an attempt at a middle way that very well may fail on either side because the surplus doesn't exist to allow the robust welfare state that SocDem states talk about, and it doesn't provide the lower level protections and democracy that comes from Socialism. There is a very real risk of neither money, nor freedom for workers.
Hm. You know what, fair enough. Re-re-revising my vote, on the basis of intentionally striving for the goal of something of a merging and hybridization between the Social Democrat and Socialist positions, at least in flavor. One or the other sets of Pros/Cons will have the mechanical effect, but this is as much about principle, story, and flavor.
[X][IDEALS] Social Democrat: Centered around the idea that it is the state's responsibility to ensure a bare-minimum standard of living, the Social Democrats add to the New Capitalist agenda with a push for a government guarantee of adequate housing, food, and water to all citizens -- itself a fairly titanic task. It
remains rooted in the fundamental ideal of private enterprise. The Social Democrats have some interest in the potential of democratized workplaces and are willing to support them in an experimental measure.
[X][IDEALS] Socialist: Having come to refer to a specific political movement rather than an entire branch of ideology, modern socialism is focused on giving the state the power to care for allcitizens, and claims that the modern Social Democrat platform does not go far enough in pursuit of this. It also calls for a massive investment into healthcare in order to revitalize the field and make sure that there are enough medical professionals to go around (long-term, they want free healthcare, but there needs to be enough of it first). They also grant unions extensive privileges over private employers. They are fervently in favor of democratized workplaces, and openly campaign in favor of granting them special concessions.
[X][CRUSH] None. This is a democracy. If your ideology cannot make its case to the people in practice, it deserves to fail.
[X][POWER] You are a centralized federal state along the lines of the later United States.
[X][TEXT] The Constitution serves as a broad guide for the structure of this document, and many legal concepts integral to it carry through, but it is rewritten from the ground up to serve its new situation rather than simply amending it until it fits.
[X][REVIEW] The new Constitution will serve just fine with a standardized system for proposing amendments.
