Free Speech Dead on Arrival at U.S. Colleges

What has America come to that we need a President's Executive Order to assure free speech on college campuses-former bastions of free speech and debate? How are students supposed to learn if they're prevented from exploring all ideas? Sadly, U.S. campuses have become violently intolerant to anyone expressing Conservative views. Ironically, U.C. Berkeley, once the origin of the Free Speech Movement, is now making headlines for the physical attack of a student trying to recruit others into a Conservative student group. Today's guest, Dr. Michael Busler, a public policy analyst, economic expert and university professor of finance, explains how the college world has turned topsy turvy and the surreal danger it poses for free speech, free thought and democracy itself. He also explores differences between capitalism, socialism and communism, why millennials are finding socialism trendy and how this could signal the demise of forces that built America into a leading economic power.
