Democratic presidential candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt. – who faces voters Monday in the Iowa caucuses – and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., proudly and loudly call themselves socialists. You have nothing to lose but your chains,” Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels wrote in “The Communist Manifesto” in 1848. Revolutionary predecessors of Sanders and Ocasio-Cortez embraced Marxism and sparked uprisings in Russia, Eastern Europe, China, North Korea, Cuba, Venezuela and other parts of the world. Yet incredibly today, Marx’s disastrous philosophy is in vogue and popular with millions of Americans – particularly young people of my own generation. Or consider the tens of millions of people who starved to death or were imprisoned by socialist and communist governments in the Soviet Union and China.
