If you mean healthcare for all, treating everybody with dignity and taking care of them, and paying for it with progressive taxes, then win?

Capitalism also can use some sort of progressive taxes. I hope You're right, that it's only about healthcare for all and progressive taxes, because 20th century has only bad examples of socialism.

(edit from previous comments) I suppose extreme versions of anything are bad ideas -- extreme capitalism with no socialist elements would be terrible! Those with money would abuse the shit out of those without. Minimum wage, social security, medicare -- these are all things that are not defined by pure capitalism. I think this is where "democratic socialism" falls: incorporate elements of socialism (the welfare state, duty to look out for all people) and capitalism (economy, growth, etc).
