ROSE UNPLUGGED: ONE GENERATION FROM EXTINCTION: Why Socialism’s Rise Should Alarm Every American Family (VIDEO)

Socialism isn’t just a dorm-room debate anymore. It’s on ballots, it’s winning elections, and it’s shaping how a whole generation of young Americans thinks about work, ownership and success.

On this episode of Rose Unplugged, Rose takes it on directly, and she makes the case that capitalism isn’t mainly an economic theory. It’s a moral one.

It rests on the idea that you own yourself, your labor and what your labor produces, and that no king, bureaucrat or committee gets to decide what you’re allowed to build, sell or earn.

Rose is joined by Dr. Charles N. Steele, Director of the Center for Commerce and Freedom and Associate Professor of Economics at Hillsdale College, and author of the upcoming book Understanding Capitalism.

Dr. Steele explains why prices carry information no government planner can match, and why competition holds businesses accountable in a way a government monopoly never will.

He covers the lessons of Thomas Sowell’s journey from Marxist to free-market champion, and he looks at how the Reagan years turned 13% inflation into millions of new jobs. He also explains why Hillsdale believes you can’t honestly teach commerce without teaching freedom alongside it.

The conversation goes back long before any economist. It starts with Jesus’ Parable of the Talents, a lesson in stewardship, initiative and the moral weight of what we do with what God has given us.

It ends with Moses’ warning in Deuteronomy 8 never to forget who gives us the power to make wealth in the first place. Ronald Reagan said freedom is never more than one generation away from extinction. Every generation gets one shot at holding onto the freedom it inherited, and this one is ours.
