Book We Own the Future

Download or read book We Own the Future written by Kate Aronoff and published by The New Press. This book was released on 2020-01-07 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stunningly original and timely collection that makes the case for "socialism, American style" It's a strange day when a New York Times conservative columnist is forced to admit that the left is winning, but as David Brooks wrote recently, "the American left is on the cusp of a great victory." Among Americans under thirty, 43 percent had a favorable view of socialism, while only 32 percent had a favorable view of capitalism. Not since the Great Depression have so many Americans questioned the fundamental tenets of capitalism and expressed openness to a socialist alternative. We Own the Future: Democratic Socialism—American Style offers a road map to making this alternative a reality, giving readers a practical vision of a future that is more democratic, egalitarian, inclusive, and environmentally sustainable. The book includes a crash course in the history and practice of democratic socialism, a vivid picture of what democratic socialism in America might look like in practice, and compelling proposals for how to get there from the age of Trump and beyond. With contributions from some of the nation's leading political activists and analysts, We Own the Future articulates a clear and uncompromising view from the left—a perfectly timed book that will appeal to a wide audience hungry for change.

Download or read book The Un Socialist Chickens written by David Culver Brenner and published by . This book was released on 2020-03 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Hattie and Eunice and their hen sisters learn that the state Revenue Collector is confiscating more and more of their tasty eggs, they strut into action. Their beloved farmer, Peter, no longer has enough eggs to share with the needy widow and orphans he's befriended. But these are no ordinary poultry. They have an ingenious plan to save Peter and his widow and orphan friends. But can mere chickens out-smart a tax man? The Un-Socialist Chickens shows how democratic socialism erodes initiative, productivity, and social cohesion, thus impoverishing people and nations.Includes Chapter Study Questions and Six Essays on Understanding Socialism: *The Inescapable Law of Human Existence that Socialists Just Don't Get *God or Government? *Sphere Sovereignty and the Unique Challenges Faced by Christians in a Democracy *Is Jesus a Wealth Redistributor or a Supply-Sider? *The Avariciousness of Government *The Holy Grail of Scandinavian SocialismPlot Summary: The chickens on Peter's prosperous farm love life, thanks to Peter's gentle ways and rich feed. A compassionate and generous man, he shares his farm's produce with an elderly widow and the village orphanage. Peter fully accepts the government's new plan to take half his produce to provide for the country's needy citizens, and he is unfailingly kind to the government revenue collector. The rest of the villagers, as well as Peter's chickens, aren't as understanding, especially when they discover the government is wasteful with the taxes they pay. Many of the villagers begin to avoid paying taxes by hiding their produce or simply working less, since working harder isn't rewarded. As a result, tax revenues begin to shrink. The government's solution is to raise taxes, but that only reduces revenues further. As revenues dry up, there are no resources left over to give to the poor, who have come to depend on the government. Moreover, farmers like Peter no longer have anything extra to share, and Peter's village friends -- the widow and orphans -- are now truly in want. So, Peter's chickens hatch a plan to help both their beloved farmer and his friends. With ingenuity and craftiness, they circumvent the revenue collector and provide enough eggs to meet the needs of Peter's friends through the coming harsh winter. In the process, the revenue collector gets a painful comeuppance that will make him sick at the mere sight of eggs for a long time. Young adults, teens, and pre-teens will have a birds-eye view of socialism's fundamental flaws, as they cheer for the Un-Socialist Chicken's plucky campaign against the greedy revenue collector.

  • ISBN : 9780999735527
  • Pages : 105 pages

Download or read book Socialism Is Evil written by Justin Haskins and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 105 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The greatest threat facing the United States today doesn't come from China, Iran, or even Russia; it's the growing number of Americans who believe Karl Marx's socialism provides the best strategy for making our communities safer, healthier, and more prosperous. But the most significant danger posed by socialism isn't that its implementation would lead to greater poverty and fewer property rights, it's that socialism would create numerous moral problems, including the limits it would place on individual liberty and religious freedom. In Socialism Is Evil: The Moral Case Against Marx's Radical Dream, conservative columnist and think tank research fellow Justin Haskins examines the moral perils of Marx's socialism and explains why if socialism were to be imposed in its fullest form, it wouldn't just damage people's freedoms, it would obliterate them. Haskins argues it would be dangerous to attempt to create Marx's utopian socialist world, and even more importantly, that such an attempt would be so highly immoral that it could reasonably be called "evil." In Socialism Is Evil, Haskins makes the moral case against socialism and also describes in detail what socialists believe, the differences between socialism and communism, why Marx's socialism will never be completely adopted, and why even the more moderate European-style socialism, called "democratic socialism" by some, is highly immoral and anti-American. Many socialists are kind, generous people with good intentions, but sometimes, good intentions can create devastating results. Socialism Is Evil briefly tackles some of the most important moral controversies surrounding Marx's socialism, providing supporters of individual liberty with the tools they need to stop the rise of socialism in its tracks.

Book The Case Against Socialism

Download or read book The Case Against Socialism written by Rand Paul and published by HarperCollins. This book was released on 2019-10-15 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A recent poll showed 43% of Americans think more socialism would be a good thing. What do these people not know? Socialism has killed millions, but it’s now the ideology du jour on American college campuses and among many leftists. Reintroduced by leaders such as Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the ideology manifests itself in starry-eyed calls for free-spending policies like Medicare-for-all and student loan forgiveness. In The Case Against Socialism, Rand Paul outlines the history of socialism, from Stalin’s gulags to the current famine in Venezuela. He tackles common misconceptions about the “utopia” of socialist Europe. As it turns out, Scandinavian countries love capitalism as much as Americans, and have, for decades, been cutting back on the things Bernie loves the most. Socialism’s return is only possible because many Americans have forgotten the true dangers of the twentieth-century’s deadliest ideology. Paul reveals the devastating truth: for every college student sporting a Che Guevara T-shirt, there’s a Venezuelan child dying of starvation. Desperate refugees flee communist Cuba to escape oppressive censorship, rationed food and squalid hospitals, not “free” healthcare. Socialist dictatorships like the People’s Republic of China crush freedom of speech and run massive surveillance states while masquerading as enlightened modern nations. Far from providing economic freedom, socialist governments enslave their citizens. They offer illusory promises of safety and equality while restricting personal liberty, tightening state power, sapping human enterprise and making citizens dependent on the dole. If socialism takes hold in America, it will imperil the fate of the world’s freest nation, unleashing a plague of oppressive government control. The Case Against Socialism is a timely response to that threat and a call to action against the forces menacing American liberty.

Book The Socialist Manifesto

Download or read book The Socialist Manifesto written by Bhaskar Sunkara and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 325 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The success of Jeremy Corbyn's left-led Labour Party and Bernie Sanders's 2016 presidential campaign revived a political idea many had thought dead. But what, exactly, is socialism? And what would a socialist system look like today? In The Socialist Manifesto, Bhaskar Sunkara, editor of Jacobin magazine, argues that socialism offers the means to achieve economic equality, and also to fight other forms of oppression, including racism and sexism. The ultimate goal is not Soviet-style planning, but to win rights to healthcare, education, and housing and to create new democratic institutions in workplaces and communities. The book both explores socialism's history and presents a realistic vision for its future. A primer on socialism for the 21st century, this is a book for anyone seeking an end to the vast inequities of our age.
