 Why is "Nationalization" A Dirty Word in America? 
From: "Mark Laffey" 

Well, the short answer would be that nationalisation can be articulated to notions of the nation as well as to a notion of the workers. Those are very different - crudely, one leads to fascism, the other leads to communism.

CB: True. So:

Socialism implies ( in the logical sense of modus ponens) nationalization

Not nationalization ,not socialism. 

Nationalization is a necessary condition of socialism. socialism is a sufficient condition of nationalization.


However,  Nationalization does not (necessarily) imply socialism.

Socialism is not a necessary condition of nationalization.  And nationalization is not a sufficient condition of socialism.
