Episode 14 (Sept. 29): Socialism versus Education
Episode 14 (Sept. 29): Socialism versus Education.
A lively run-through of the major developments that will take you to socialism or communism.
A key player throughout is education, or education that has been corrupted to serve ideological purposes. Once this process starts moving, usually it turns out badly because too much power has been concentrated in the hands of the ambitious and ruthless people at the top.
Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.
