Welcome!
I’m Bub Kuns, and today we’re talking about socialism.
Socialism’s popularity is growing at an alarming rate — especially among youth. According to research by Axios, over HALF of young adults surveyed have a POSITIVE view of socialism and according to research firm YouGov, 60 percent of Millennials favor a “complete change of our economic system away from capitalism!”
So, what makes socialism so appealing to younger people?
Well, historian Lee Edwards suggests that youngsters have an idealistic view of socialism as a classless society where all people are treated equally, have all things in common, and have all their needs met. While all that SOUNDS good, historically IT HAS NEVER WORKED THAT WAY! In fact, socialism is responsible for destroying the work ethic of entire cultures, and communism — socialism’s militant version — is responsible for the deaths of millions around the world.
Just how many deaths? Well, we’ll discuss that next time.
