Millennials Do Not Understand What Socialism Is
If government planners can’t even provide goods and services efficiently, how will they ever provide togetherness?

Millennials Embrace Socialism, but Do They Know What It Is?
Socialism is having a moment.
I’m not just referring to Bernie Sanders’s surprisingly strong showing in the Democratic primaries. Various polls show that Millennials have a more favorable view of socialism than of capitalism. And Millennials generally are the only age group that views socialism more favorably than unfavorably.
Some conservatives aren’t surprised. Schools have been force-feeding left-wing propaganda to kids like it was feed for geese at a foie gras factory.
On the other hand, what are we to make of the fact that only a fraction of the young people who say they like socialism can explain what it is? If left-wing indoctrination is so effective at getting kids to like socialism, you’d think it would have more success at getting kids to at least parrot back a serviceable definition.

If they don’t then they are lazy and stupid. In this age of smart phones, which are super glued to every hand, there is no excuse for not looking things up and educating oneself. Do they want to earn and keep what they have or do they want to be standing in a line waiting for the gov to hand them things? When the gov runs out of things to hand out, things get really ugly really fast.
Case in point: Venezuela, the most recent example of Socialism run amok. Less than two decades after a socialist revolution, the old dictator’s kids are worth several billion while the country is out of toilet paper, beer, electricity and several critical medicines.
Reading the original article,
” They wanted to return to the imagined Eden of the noble savage and the state of nature. They wanted to live in a world of tribal brotherhood and mutual love. ”
Tribal brotherhood and the clans that make it up; having chiefs to contend with
and a violent pecking order to endure.
What do these Millennials know about anything not related to reality shows and celebrities?
