I'd guess HRC would simply deride such an ascription. Clearly articulated legal procedures for democratic legislatures would be a must for any form of socialism that uses representative government afaict, so one could always disparage them as technocratic; it doesn't follow that they are. Legalese infuriates many US citizens because they can't always tell where/when/if mendacity begins with such jargon laden discourse. Such is the price for inegalitarian eduction policies and a culture of rampant anti-intellectualism.
