The Naked Communist lays out the entire graphic story of communism, its past, present, and future. And explains how socialism is a stepping stone to communism. He also explains that the ultimate aim of communism is a dictatorship.
I did this last night with my 14 and 11 year old boys. I asked them for their definition of socialism, how many classes there are in socialism and what is the best deterrent to socialism.
They both had the basics of what socialism is, they both knew there are only two classes (rich and poor) and my oldest knew right off that a strong middle class is the best deterrent. The oldest is home schooled and the youngest goes to a public elementary school.

Tell your teenager they can’t have a car because the Dem’s are going to take them anyway.
Parents should also be teaching their kids about the federal government’s constitutionally limited powers as the Founding States had intended for those powers to be understood, especially the fed’s limited power to appropriate taxes.
“Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
”From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added].” —United States v. Butler, 1936.
A Rant: Can The US Be Forced Into Becoming a Socialist Democracy?
Today’s progressive[sic] seeks to alter the government to a socialist state, one where the authority in power directs (through regulation, taxation, fees, and decrees) the actions of both businesses and individual lives. Governing authority is provided by the government, the people are not willing to engage in the process. Money and transactions are controlled by the government and any wealth produced it distributed according to government edict.
Today’s conservative seeks to “conserve” the US as a republic, the representative form of democracy. Activities are controlled through the elected representatives at the behest of those that elected them; governing authority is vested in the people who willingly engage in the process. Money and transactions are controlled by those who have that money to transact. Any wealth produced is retained by those who best understand how to use it.
The US is/was formed as a constitutional republic and that Constitution is agreed to by the people of the several States of which they are a citizen. Among the primary articles of that very same Constitution is the 4th Article [4th Article in which we are all agreed] is the following language:
Section 4, Clause 1
The United States shall guarantee to every State in this Union a Republican Form of Government.
Seems to me that “Socialist Democracy” is a violation of the Constitution.
They got their instruction through osmosis from two parents who spoke to each other about important stuff in front of them.
No matter what we do LEGAL immigration is going to turn the country socialist. And the amount legal immigration seems to be increasing!
Something of mine from another thread:
Everyone who is in love with the idea of “Democratic Socialism” thinks they will either be one of the Masterminds giving orders or allowed do nothing and have their every want provided for. What they don’t realize is they will be using picks and shovels to mine the heavy metals used to make solar panels or working a horse-drawn plow sixteen hours a day or hand digging the mass graves that are always the end result of such a Utopia.
