Earnings

[VNA]

if only we lived in a capitalist society.

You better believe it.

Rail Subsidies, Oil company subsidies etc

That's right private companies, some of them that can't even turn a profit get subsidised by us, they then pay their useless board millions and in turn pay out further millions to their rich shareholders.  Your taxes straight to the rich..

Bailing out companies that fuck up (banks)

Yup instead of the banks, their bosses and rich shareholders taking the hit, they are bailed out by you and then you get punished with austerity.  Focced over, then focced over again.

Subsidising low pay with government benefits,

As I already said, we subsidise the multi billion pound companies (who don't pay their taxes) their rich bosses and shareholders by paying the money to their hard working employees that they should be.

Yes perhaps you are correct Raz, what we have is socialism, but socialism for the rich.
