Guess we better just eliminate public schools then so those dastardly capitalists can’t exploit them.

Forty years after the Constitution was ratified, using Adam Smith’s THE WEALTH OF NATIONS, the US was an up and coming economic power!

Sixty years after the Cuban Communists came to power, using Marx’ economic system they still can’t make “La Rev-o-loo-cion work!

Socialists/Communists produce NOTHING socialists/Communists wish to “redistribute.”

Capitalism produces EVERYTHING socialists/Communists wish to “redistribute.”

Socialism/Communism can only exist as a parasite of capitalism.

Over 5000 years of history and only Capitalism has seen a rise in the standard of living across all members of society. From Walden, New Harmony, and others to modern-day Venezuela, Socialism has always failed, yet these non-thinking twits want to try it again. The very definition of stupidity.

Capitalists need to stop giving the Commies the rope to be used to hang them.

Lenin thought that stupid capitalists would sell the rope.

Today dumb Americans pay the Commies to teach their kids.

"capitalism inherently exploits children, public schools, land, labor, and resources."

Okay, capitalism and those that espouse capitalism do all those things. Let’s concede that point, less the public school part. There is no capitalism in public schools.

What’s the teacher union’s alternative?

I was thinking about this the other day, although abstract of teacher unions. People of this anti-capitalist ilk are truly intellectually crippled. I think we may be mistakenly identifying these people as socialists or communists. They simply just don’t know enough about either. So, what do they propose as an alternative to capitalism?

It’s obvious that they are pro big government, but they lack the depth of thinking to take that to the policy of a centralized planned and controlled economy that the USSR once had and China still has to great extent even though there have been some capitalist reforms in China. In other words, they embrace leftist ideologies without any critical thinking.

If they are jumping on the commie bandwagon, they really need to examine how communists FORCED people against their will to part of a system that inherently exploited children, public schools, land, labor, and resources. In the process, the economic outcome was inferior for all but the political elite. The standard of living was lower than the rest of the industrialized world. People did not enjoy the freedoms of the West. And most importantly, tens of millions of people were murdered to achieve such low levels of human achievement.

Given the context that this article is coming from a teachers union, it speaks volumes about how teachers are ‘collectively’ are not equipped to teach our children and really should not be allowed near children.

I am so glad that I homeschooled my children.

So they’re concerned about the children.
