When your only options are what liberal professors and public educators present as ‘salvation’ (socialism) and corporatism (which is socialism and modern feudalism-the system we currently live in). Nuckleheads will choose socialism.
Problem is that other than intellectually we don’t have many real advocates for actual free-markets (which work) and lift people out of poverty, as well as give freedom. Ron/Rand Paul are maybe the exception on the conservative/libertarian/free-market side for young people/

We Baby boomers were the last to be taught about America in school. And it was starting to change in the sixties when I was in high school.
There are basically 3 generations of voters today. And 15% of those over 65 favor socialism. I wonder what the percentage is of those age 45 to 64. I’ll bet it’s not good.
There’s homeschooling with a Christ based curriculum.
Our next door neighbor in Claremont Calif who was a teacher tried to convince me that Socialism is good. He said what about Schools? I said home schooling! He said what about FIRE Departments? I said in our little town here (Lake Jackson TX) we have Volunteer Fire Department. LJVFD. He said what about police departments? I said, most of us in Texas own guns!!!!!!!!!!!!
