The Heritage Foundation on Socialism

9 Ways that Socialism will Morally Bankrupt America

EVERY DAY, SOCIALISM BECOMES MORE AND more popular among young Americans. There are 3 big reasons why:

1 Socialism is being marketed to young people as kind, selfless, and community-focused
2 Many people are unaware of Socialism’s dismal record
3 Young people are not being taught America’s founding principles, so they are unprepared to combat the narratives they hear in their schools and colleges.

"Most people who want socialism in America don’t realize that they are being sold a fairy tale with a tragic ending. We’ve seen this over and over again in the last century, in dozens of countries, and always with heartbreaking results."

Lynn,
Please enlighten everyone here on the difference between socialism and communism. Although we already have public schools that we all pay for and public housing, that we all pay for and public health care for the indigent, medi-care and medi-caid, that we all pay for and Social Security that we have all paid for. We are constantly being told that we already are a socialistic country. At what point do we become communistic? Everything comes down through the government.

If you really want to be "enlightened," which you don't, just Google it.
And we have talked about this so many times on this blog. Social Security is not socialism, not when you and your employer pay into it. It is not given for free.

What you have to do, 11:01, is read it in Lenin's own words. "What is to be Done"? Or, you could read: "The State and Revolution", also by Lenin. This is not really a joke. When their little helpers, like ANTIFA, and BLM, are through, they kill them too.
