About

Synopsis: This week on "Learn Me Something," Aaron and Rich delve into the history of socialism and how it applies to modern times, both in Canada and other countries. The DSA website, saying no country is fully socialist, suggests the organization would borrow from the best examples from around the world: “We can learn from the comprehensive welfare state maintained by the Swedes, from Canada’s national health care system, France’s nationwide childcare program, and Nicaragua’s literacy programs. Lastly, we can learn from efforts initiated right here in the US, such as the community health centers created by the government in the 1960s.” Make sure to signup for Audible today to get your FREE audio book and 30-day trial.
