History is strewn with the wreckage of experiments in Socialism from New Harmony to Walden, but either they don’t know about them or they are too stupid to heed its warning.
“”but either they don’t know about them or they are too stupid to heed its warning.””
That was my thought when I posted on this thread earlier. Someone took issue with my take on it and sent me a PM but I’ll stick with “stupid”. He/She misunderstood my reply.
Our universities are responsible for turning out these “know nothings”. I actually heard someone on FOX Cable tonight say (some gal I don’t recall seeing before) that the Holocaust precipitated WWII. That wasn’t the word she used but the actual word escapes me - that happens more and more now - LOL.
She was lamenting that young people just don’t know their history and I said loudly at the dinner table, “and they sure aren’t going to learn it from you, sweetie.” My husband doesn’t hear well what is being said so he didn’t have any idea what my outburst meant...
I know - I know - the news shouldn’t be on during dinner but I hadn’t heard any during the day so turned it on..My mistake!
