Growing up at the end of the Cold War like I did, communism was a dirty word, and was a constant threat. Many today think that the threat of communism went away after the collapse of the Soviet Union, which started in the early 60’s and was observed by intelligence officers as far back as the Cuban Missile Crises. The Soviet Union was going to collapse, it was just a matter of time when. They were collapsing because their political philosophy of communism destroyed ambition and productivity, leaving all of Russia and the gigantic land mass of China to turn those countries into the economies of the third world.

Communism cannot work without destroying individuality, and in the process, destroying the kind of ambition that manufactures productivity.
But communism is not gone from the world—it has never left. It is alive and well today through the labor movement, through the Obama presidency, through any nation’s tendency toward big government. All that has changed with communism is that advocates have changed the names around to hide their true intentions. This makes it hard to identify who America’s friends are from their foes when the red flag of the U.S.S.R is removed from the face of communism and is replaced with Barack Obama’s smiling mug advocating progressivism. The threats to individual sovereignty is the same as it always has been, but the marketing of the ideas did change to appear less threatening, so that the idea of communism could spread all across the world—as was always the plan. And no place in America is communism more present than in the public education occupation—exclusively because education is controlled by massive government backed teacher unions who plan to teach our children on the merits of communism while forcing them to live under a rainbow-colored umbrella of communism in their everyday lives. The communists look and act like any other person in our general society—that is, until they open their mouths and begin to spew the long-held philosophic ideas of Karl Marx. The dead giveaway that a person is a communist is that they advocate high taxes for the “rich” and wealth redistribution for the “middle class.” For proof of this radicalism, look at the video produced by the California Teachers Union narrated by long time respected actor Ed Asner. What is being advocated in this video is communism. This is what our kids are learning in school with tax payer money off our property values. This is the result of a communist attack from within America that has proven far more dangerous, and sinister than even the Cuban Missile Crises was during the Kennedy years.
I know this video and the producers of it are communists in spite of their declaration that they are “progressives” because their beliefs have been tried before, most notably in the Russian Revolution in 1917 Petrograd—known today as St. Petersburg. For anyone wishing to learn more on this communism idea they should read We The Living by Ayn Rand, published in 1936 during the “Red Decade” here in America as a warning to those in The United States who were thinking of pushing communism during our own Great Depression. The book is widely available at any book store today as Ayn Rand books are flying off the shelves as people are going back and learning what she was trying to say during the first half of the American 20th Century. CLICK HERE TO READ MY REVIEW OF WE THE LIVING. Communists today fear Ayn Rand’s books, so they will ridicule anyone who attempts to read them. In Ayn Rand’s novels—particularly We The Living she shows how the process happens, and it begins by demonizing the “rich,” those who produce jobs and generate the wealth of a country. Communists wish to remove these “wealth producers” so that the government does not have any competition for that kind of activity. In a communist country government wishes to be the job creators by distributing the looted wealth collected from the masses, so they must eliminate those who actually make things. That is why they attack the “rich.”
The fundamental flaw that all communists suffer from is that they do not understand what makes wealth. They believe that money is finite, that it is not a renewable resource generated from the ideas in an individual’s head and implemented by the companies that they create. So communists attempt to steal the wealth that has so far been created, and then they sit on that looted wealth by redistributing it to the poor and middle class. Then they wonder why their economies failing, because the value for things goes down as the wealth leaves the country like water running through a screen door. Committees do not produce wealth, corporations do not produce wealth, and governments do not produce wealth. All those collectivist organizations can only “manage” the wealth created by individuals. America has had more wealth than any other nation because it has produced individuals who could think in such a fashion to manufacture wealth. If those individuals are looted by their government, the individuals will stop manufacturing wealth, and soon the nation will fail with devalued currency, and become a society of middle-class looters looking to government to send a check they can live on in the mail. When they don’t get it, they will protest—just like what is happening in Greece.
The California Teachers Union along with the rest of the public employees of that state are bankrupting it with their commitment to socialism/communism, and their mentality that was wonderfully evident in their video hosted by Ed Asner. Communists are certainly alive and well, and if you send your child to a public school, they are being taught by communists, as classically defined. Communists thrive in public education because there is no competition, so government has paved the way to spread communism into the minds of young Americans without any fear of competing ideas interfering. If parents don’t like their children being taught by communists at their local school, they don’t have much choice but to home school their children (as my wife and I did for a time) or send them to a private school. Sadly, it is time to stop kidding ourselves of the value of public education when it is now so obvious that public schools are teaching children the values of communism, instead of becoming productive capitalist in a thriving economy.
If you are an older person and can remember the Cold War, you should withdrawal your support from your public school any way possible. If you send them your money, you are helping spread the communist message to our next generations. CLICK HERE FOR PROOF THAT THE KGB INFILTRATED PUBLIC SCHOOLS IN THE 1960’s AND NEVER LEFT. Younger parents, who did not grow up in such a time, won’t know what is going on because they are still too immature to see history playing out before their eyes, and they will not understand. But for those of us who do, communists have to be removed from public education, and the best way to do that is to starve them out of their hiding places. For more proof of this communist plot in all public schools, CLICK HERE, watch the video there before assuming that I’m pulling your leg. Because I’m not, sorry to say.
