Paperback. Zustand: Good. Stalin?s gulag, impoverished North Korea, collapsing Cuba.it?s hard to name a dogma that has failed as spectacularly as socialism.

But even in America, that hasn?t stopped politicians and bureaucrats from planning, to various extents, the most vital sectors of our economy: public education, energy, and the most arrogant centralplanning effort of them all, Obama?s healthcare plan. In this provocative book, Williamson unfolds the grim history of socialism, showing how the ideology has spawned crushing poverty, devastating famines, and horrific wars. Lumbering from one crisis to the next, leaving a trail of economic devastation and environmental catastrophe, socialism has wreaked more havoc, caused more deaths, and impoverished more people than any other ideology in historyespecially when you include the victims of fascism, which Williamson notes is simply a variant of socialism.

Socialism is alive and kicking, and it?s already spread further than you know.…
