    Excellent points by Bill. Wonder if his influence could get a similar but expanded video into high schools and colleges that are still open to the truth.

    Years ago I was at a party a good friend was giving for her friend, a diplomat who recently returned from the USSR with his Russian fiancee–a very pretty doctor who spoke flawless English. I had just read an article about the many millionaires connected to the government in the Soviet Union and mentioned it in passing to the diplomat and the doctor. Mind you, I was a leftie in those days and was pretty surprised at what I’d read. The fiancee said that couldn’t possibly be true as the goal of the USSR was equality. Even in my leftism I suspected that this American diplomat was being had by a likely “honeypot spy,” as surely no educated Russian could be that naive.

      I know Bill does speaking engagements in schools, mostly colleges. One of the things he does is asks who is willing to sell their belongings – phones, Ipads etc. – and give the money to the less fortunate. He says nobody ever does.

        That’s great Bill is speaking at schools. It just may enable teachers and administrators to be more bold in defending America and our Constitution.

        Re the students not being willing to give up their phones, etc. …they’ve learned from Bernie that you can be a millionaire and a socialist. Since he espouses the cause, he doesn’t have to give away his possessions or donate his salary to charity that directly helps homeless or Americans living in poverty. Socialist/communist leaders never do…certainly not Venezuela’s Chavez…when he died, his daughter became a billionaire.

    What’s to understand? Everybody owns everything but no one owns anything.What’s mine is yours and nothing’s mine.
