Excellent and brilliantly written. You’re right and it is a concept brought to us by our crypto-Marxists. We cannot trust the rich and we must hate them because they’re all political capitalists, no?
The truth is that political entrepreneurs thrive in a socialistic environment. Our Founders were rich guys and a smaller government loses the natural playground of corruption found in overreaching regulation and explosive budgets.
We’ve got to undo some of these Amendments and get back to Constitutional principles. I don’t know how to do it when AP American Government classes denigrate the Constitution and celebrate the Philosophy of Big Government. How do we breakthrough the government education monopoly and retrain Americans in basic, God-given liberty?
“Political Entrepreneurs,” is rich. Don’t be surprised if I plagiarize it!
I was brought up in a largely conservative atmosphere both at home and school. Still, I had a liberal period that lasted about two years. I was over it by age 20.
When so many young people are subjected to Marxist nonsense through their early twenties, it is a wonder there are so many Conservatives under age 50.
I don’t know what the answer is, though getting rid of the Dept of Education and turning the matter back to the States where it belongs should be a starting point.
Sounds like the Chicago Way on an even grander scale....
This book taught me all I needed to know about political entrepreneurs in America:

You’d love it and I share its ideas with everyone I meet.
The solution is vouchers and breaking teachers unions. If Wisconsin, Ohio, et al. win it’ll be the end. What conservatives have to recognize right now is that the battle is joined. Liberals are fighting for their lives and they’ll destroy America before they lose power.
Watch Obama’s policies and it’s proved out. Our goal is the opposite: victory while preserving the Union.
