I think the popularity of modern liberalism and socialism is a reflection of the sad state our educational system is in. When people are only taught one point of view, with no discussion of other ideas even allowed, it's no wonder our country is in the sad state it's in. People below the age of about fifty or so were never taught how to think for themselves - they either taught themselves, or they didn't.

Our so-called "leaders" are the same way. Do you think AOC was ever taught anything other than Keynesian economics (or, in fact, any kind of economics)? Do you think Biden was ever taught anything other than how to get reelected? Do you think Kamala has ever hears of John Locke, or Adam Smith? Of course not - but they sure know who funds their campaigns.

I don't think or leaders and consciously trying to destroy America. They're just totally ignorant, like half the country is. And to me, that's even more scary.

And when you add in their hunger for more power, well...
