    The schools have so confused our children, they think Capitalism is bad and Socialism is good. We need more parents checking up on what is being taught to our children. They believe their teachers are telling them the truth.

      The HONEST problem is that we are 2 generations late.

      The Parents already believe Capitalism is bad!
      I've seen the effects of the brainwashing on both the children my daughters age, as well as noticing their parents were push-overs (since capitalism doesn't produce 90% success rates, they feel it failed them... Not that they failed to take advantage of what they had access to!)

      Capitalisms simple proof:

      We created OBESE POOR PEOPLE.

      Never EVER Before seen in history!

    Was the first speaker Barry Goldwater? Gary Stewart as Alvin York.

    Great video!

    16th Amendment was the worst. Without it, the present government could not function, and would have to contract. This contraction would be the best possible outcome, and hilarious to watch.

    Recently, I was watching/listening to a lecture series on the Founding Era (note caps). One significant point that was discussed was the distinction that the Pursuit of Happiness is not the same as the pursuit of pleasure.

    The Pursuit of Happiness, along with Life and Liberty is the freedom and therefore the opportunity to achieve fulfillment - however, one may see that end, aside from using force on others. Fulfillment by achieving creative productivity and with self-defined goals of success and endeavoring to get there.

    Another significant point made was that all times are the times that try men's souls.

    Socialism sounds nice in theory. Unfortunately it ain't nice in practice! Try and explain that to people.

      I never have understood why anyone would consider being taken care of, even by a benevolent anything, as desirable. Such a person has a lot of selflessness, i.e., quit a weak self. Being a bit autistic, I have fled from the clutches of selflessness and the suppose comfort for which many seem to search for in it.
