Marion Smith on Millennials’ Ignorance of Communism: Schools Busy Teaching Critiques of America

RUSH TRANSCRIPT:
O'REILLY: "Impact segment tonight, on Monday, Jesse Watters will have a report on how younger voters are seeing the presidential election. Tonight, a similar theme. A group called victims of communism memorial foundation has released a report on American attitudes towards socialism and communism. Study found that 32% of millennials, a third of them, believe that more people were killed under George W. Bush than the Russian tyrant Joseph Stalin. Is that amazing? Also, only 42% of the millennials, Americans born in the 1980s have a favorable view of capitalism. 46% they would vote for a socialist like Bernie Sanders. Joining us from Washington, Mary Anne Smith from the foundation. Were you surprised by the findings here, Mr. Smith?" 
SMITH: "Unfortunately we weren't really surprised. Over two years we have been educating Americans and especially younger Americans about the now almost 100 years of history since the first communist regime burst forth on the world stage in 1970 with the ball chick revolution. Since that time 100 million people killed in nearly 40 some communist regimes around the world. And we found that most people found that these numbers were shocking and many didn't even believe them. We suspected it was a problem." 
O'REILLY: "Let's get into George W. Bush and Stalin. If you don't know who Joseph Stalin is, he was a dictator in Russia soviet union during World War II. He killed millions of people, so many people that they can't count them because there was no reporting on it. And it was just mass slaughters that Stalin undertook. To compare him to bush the younger, is so absurd it's painful, so that tells me that the U.S. Educational system, the public school system just doesn't -- they are not teaching anything." 
SMITH: "Well, we have a sort of withering critique of the American free enterprise system and of our own U.S. History. And at the same time millennials and, I don't want to be too hard on them, I am one, are finding sort of a difficult job environment as they graduate from college and enter the workforce. Our poll also found that there were more people my age, the millennial generation who thought our economic system worked against them rather than for them." 
O'REILLY: "Right." 
SMITH: "And some 46% would vote for a socialist. One generation younger than us, those who are in high school now half of them would vote for a socialist. And one in five would vote for a communist."
