NEW VIDEO: How America's Best State Fell Apart
🕑 Added 2022-01-27 22:13:18 +0000 UTCHello, everyone! We hope you enjoy our latest video:
Wisconsin – that most American of all U.S. states – was once a land where socialists won elected office and where “the Wisconsin Idea” represented a nation where government could be a force for good. But in the last few decades, Wisconsin – and the rest of America – has changed. The story of Wisconsin is a story of much more: it’s the story of the betrayal of America’s poor and working class.
Philip Rocco, associate professor of political science at Marquette University, explains.

I lived in Wisconsin until I was 9, and it’s remained a big part of my life. It’s kind of weird to think about all of this.

Higher taxes and redistribution by the capitalist state aren't socialism. That's just progressive capitalism.
