Keep Socialism in the Trash Where it Belongs
The governmental system of socialism has been tried and failed before. It has actually failed every single time it has been implemented. What makes younger Americans believe that it will work now? It has been found that 57% of Democrats and 51% of those ages 19-29 have a positive view of Socialism (Boaz 2018). ThatContinue reading “Keep Socialism in the Trash Where it Belongs”
