Government Schools Turn Young People into Socialists

[Delta4Embassy]

Democractic socialism is awesome. Forbes' top 10 lists of happiest countries on earth are dominated by the Northern European countries which are socialist.

Fools consistently try to cloud this issue by portraying these systems as communist-socialism or Nazi national-socialism. But they're nothing like that.

Keep trying though fellas, we need someone to oppose.

The northern European social democracies indeed have a wonderful blend of regulated capitalism and a comprehensive, cradle-to-grave safety net. If I lived in Germany I would be thrilled with it.

But keep a couple things in mind. Those countries have a strong work ethic, and are (at least until recently) very homogeneous in almost all ways. Too many Americans, for whatever reason, are minimalist when it comes to work output. Also, we have large populations of Americans who do not now, and never seriously intend to, participate as productive members of society. Social democracy cannot thrive where more and more people are happy suckling at the government's teats. This is what's happening in England now, and it's not pretty. The country will presently be bankrupt, even if Scotland remains in the fold.

Productive members of these countries are paying MORE THAN HALF THEIR INCOMES in national income tax. Plus ungodly high prices for gas and electricity. A typical family of four has an 800 square foot apartment, with no garage. Would you be satisfied with that? Most middle-class Americans would find it horribly confining.

These countries are in the beginning stages of demographic suicide. They are reproducing at a rate that is far too low to reproduce the present population, and are retiring in the same numbers as here, only YOUNGER, on average. Thus, they have to, somehow, import foreign workers to pay taxes to support the welfare state, while at the same time devising ways of telling them that they cannot fully participate (or expect to retire in, say, Germany, Austria, or Norway). It is a time bomb that is at least as bad as what we have here. The problem is made worse by the fact that the native populations of the countries are more and more resentful of the Muslims, Portuguese, and Eastern Europeans who keep coming in and thumbing their figurative noses at the native cultures. Think, Denmark.

There is something to be said for having "free" healthcare, early retirement, old-age homes for granny that don't consume her estate, clean streets, efficient mass transit systems, and free college education for the kids (who qualify). But the cost is exhorbitant and the system that created all this appears to be collapsing, albeit slowly.

Exactly, that's why schools encourage cheating. Cheating is a form of welfare-socialism and schools begin moving Americans to socialism by awarding the best cheaters.

American workers are among the hardest working, most productive in the world.

Hilter a leftist? This is ridiculous... The only "socialist" thing in his party was the name. Nationalism and racism were is ideologies, and they are from the far right.

Would Hitler lie? Would Hitler use a group such as the NAZI to gain his objective then abandon the group's agenda? Would Hitler have all those socialist killed on the night of th long knives? What kind of person do they think Hitler was?

The list was compiled by a socialist. It's bullshit propaganda.

Only the gullible were fooled.

Unkotare, please cite the basis on which you say that, "American workers are among the hardest working, most productive in the world."

The PRODUCTIVITY of American workers is admirable, but that is mainly due to automation and computerization, not "hard work."

You want to see people who persistently work hard (and long), go to Japan. They make the typical American look like a stone slacker. (Myself included).

 

[initforme]

Hmmmmmmm. My kids attended the public schools. They aren't socialists. Nor are their kids who are currently in the public schools. American workers are very productive.

"You want to see people who persistently work hard (and long), go to Japan. They make the typical American look like a stone slacker."

And they probably do this for less wages. Their bosses laugh all the way to the bank. Americans work plenty hard. Most Americans are very hard working people. Especially those in the middle class.

Poll: College Students Favor Speech Codes and Trigger Warnings
Welcome to the marketplace of ideas.

n excerpt from the upcoming New Criterion in The Wall Street Journal:

Williams College (Tuition and fees: $63,290) has undertaken an “Uncomfortable Learning” Speaker Series in order to provide intellectual diversity on a campus where (like most campuses) left-leaning sentiment prevails. What a good idea! How is it working out? The conservative writer Suzanne Venker was invited to speak in this series.

But when word got out that an alternative point of view might be coming to Williams, angry students demanded her invitation be rescinded. It was. Explaining their decision, her hosts noted that the prospect of her visit was “stirring a lot of angry reactions among students on campus.”

...

To put some numbers behind that perception, The William F. Buckley Jr. Program at Yale recently commissioned a survey from McLaughlin & Associates about attitudes towards free speech on campus. Some 800 students at a variety of colleges across the country were surveyed. The results, though not surprising, are nevertheless alarming:

• By a margin of 51 percent to 36 percent, students favor their school having speech codes to regulate speech for students and faculty.
• Sixty-three percent favor requiring professors to employ “trigger warnings” to alert students to material that might be discomfiting.
• One-third of the students polled could not identify the First Amendment as the part of the Constitution that dealt with free speech.
• Thirty-five percent said that the First Amendment does not protect “hate speech,” while 30 percent of self-identified liberal students say the First Amendment is outdated.

With the assault on free speech and the First Amendment proceeding apace in institutions once dedicated to robust intellectual debate, it is no wonder that there are more and more calls to criminalize speech that dissents from the party line on any number of issues, from climate change to race relations, to feminism and sex.

IF YOU WANT REAL CHANGE, START WITH EDUCATION
Stopping the indoctrination of our children is a necessary first step.
March 9, 2017

Bruce Thornton

The first eight weeks of Trump’s administration have been filled with executive orders attacking the unconstitutional excesses of the Obama presidency. He’s also pledged to kill the regulatory Hydra, increase defense spending, reform the tax code, and restore America’s prestige. And all these changes and promises have been met with vicious attacks and outlandish charges from the media, and scorched-earth obstructionism from Congressional Dems.

All of which is as entertaining as an MMA blood-fest. But to effect real change, we need to get beneath the telegenic food-fight and transient click-bait, and start dynamiting the foundations of the deep state. And that means going after higher education, the one institution that more than any other shapes the young and indoctrinates them with progressive ideology.

But it’s not enough to go after the ideologically biased professoriate and administrators, or ridicule the pretentious “research” churned out by pseudo-disciplines in the humanities and social sciences. No doubt such critical exposure of the “higher nonsense” is important, for those bad ideas trickle down from the research universities to the state colleges, where most of the K-12 teachers get their teaching credentials. And most of those teachers inflict these political prejudices and false knowledge on the impressionable young, who by the time they reach college will already have been primed for even more pernicious indoctrination.

Take, for example, the silly notion of “microagressions.” This is the preposterous idea that systemic racism, sexism, etc. are so pervasive that people can subconsciously inflict injury on women, homosexuals, “people of color,” and all the other certified victims due special treatment like “safe spaces.” This wacky idea got started back in 2007 with a scientifically dubious paper called “Racial Microagressions in Everyday Life.” An even more influential bad idea, “Islamophobia,” traces its origins to Edward Said’s 1978 Orientalism, a “work of malignant charlatanry,” as Middle East scholar Robert Irwin described it, and one of the most-assigned books in social science and humanities courses. Like bacilli, such ideological prejudices disguised as scholarship have infected curricula from grade school to university, and from there sickened the whole culture. And they replicate themselves through the education industry’s monopoly on training, hiring, and tenuring of teachers.

...

It is easy to put a low priority on our how progressive ideology has corrupted higher education, and spend our time and energy on reforming the tax code or reining in the EPA. But remember the Jesuit maxim: “Give me the child until he is seven and I’ll give you the man.” Education today gets children at five, and in some cases continues to mold them until they’re 21. Changing the laws that empower bureaucratic ideologues to indoctrinate our children is the necessary first step to dismantling deep-state tyranny.

If you're not a union man, you're not a man at all. Scabs are buttboys for the bosses. Bootlicking richlovers are traitors, escapist dropouts are deserters.
