At American Thinker and At Wikipedia

 

Compare and Contrast

 

The American "Middle Class"


The Russian "Kulaks"

 

 

Read The Disappearing Middle Class By Jeremy Meister at American Thinker about the shrinking of this segment and why it has to go for socialism and communism to succeed in the U.S.

Then read the Wikipedia article on the Kulaks, who were the (relatively) "wealthy" peasants of Russia and then the Soviet Union. They had to go, and they did; killed, exiled, enslaved.

 

Read the material carefully. Think about it. Discuss it with friends and family.

It will be on the examination on November 2nd.
