Even most Freepers don't seem to realize that communism in the U.S. has its roots in the public school systems as they were established around the time of World War I.
If you got rid of every U.S. institution that is part of the communist foundation of our government and economy, you wouldn't even recognize this country.
Communist Rules for Revolution.
A. Corrupt the young, get them away from religion. Get them interested in sex. Make them superficial, and destroy their ruggedness.
B. Get control of all means of publicity thereby:
1. Get the peoples minds off their government by focusing their attention on athletics, sexy books and other trivialities.
2. Destroy the people’s faith in their natural leaders by holding the latter up to contempt, ridicule and obloquy.
3. Always preach true democracy, but seize power as fast and as ruthlessly as possible.
4. By encouraging government extravagance, destroy its credit and produce fear of inflation with rising prices and general discontent.
5. Foment unnecessary strikes in vital industries, encourage civil disorders, and foster lenient and soft attitude on the part of government toward such disorders.
6. By Specious argument cause the breakdown of the old moral virtues, honesty, sobriety, continence, faith in the pledged word, ruggedness.
C. Cause the registration of all firearms on some pretext, with a view towards confiscating them and leaving the populace helpless.
“...communism in the U.S. has its roots in the public school systems as they were established around the time of World War I.”
Actually, it started just after WWII, in the early-50s when the commies were exposed by the McCarthy Hearings, they went underground and re-surfaced in academia and other industries. They’ve infiltrated local state and federal gov’ts, police, religion, military etc etc etc.
I was born in 1949, and went thru grade school, Jr HS, HS and University when we had the Pledge of Allegiance and Prayer to open the day’s classes and were taught about America’s History by good, Conservative teachers.
The generation(s) behind me lost all that; American flags were removed, God was taken out of schools and all gov’t, and I escaped with University graduation in 1971, as liberal teachers and profs were replacing the Conservative ones, as they retired.
If you got rid of every U.S. institution that is part of the communist foundation of our government and economy, you wouldn’t even recognize this country.

Being born when I was and having done what I’ve done, it would be better that the country I live in which I don’t recognize now.
