Last week I presented you with the beginnings of a lesson plan on capitalism and socialism. I was concerned that lessons like this are helping move our country farther away from the ideals that I consider The American Dream.
After asking the kids which society they would rather live in and asking them to write their answers with reasons why, the teacher was to write on the board the definitions of capitalism and socialism. They are as follows:
Capitalism is an economic system based on the private ownership of the means of production and distribution of goods, characterized by a free competitive market and motivated by profit; in other words, an economy where money is used to make more money.
Socialism is a political theory or system in which the means of distribution are controlled by the government and people and operated according to equity and fairness rather than market principles; in other words, a system of government where owners share profits with workers.
When I looked up the definitions in the Merriam Webster Dictionary they looked a little different. They were as follows.
Capitalism: a way of organizing an economy so that the things that are used to make and transport products (such as land, oil, factories, ships, etc.) are owned by individual people and companies rather than by the government.
Socialism: a way of organizing a society in which major industries are owned and controlled by the government rather than by individual people and companies.
Do you see the difference in the definitions? The ones that were provided in the lesson plans were skewed slightly to emotion. The lesson plan writers opinions of what the definitions mean to them were added at the end.
The author of this lesson plan, in my opinion, is making socialism look like a wonderful, happy time of sharing where all things are equal and fair. They make capitalism, in my opinion, look like an evil economic system based on pure greed. They use a little bit of fact and a lot of emotion to present this lesson.

Former Johns Hopkins neurosurgeon and potential Republican presidential candidate Dr. Ben Carson is under fire for passages included in a 2012 book that appear to be lifted from an anti-socialism website and other sources.
A report by the news site BuzzFeed found sections of the book, "America the Beautiful," were reproduced from a website called Socialismsucks.net that has since been taken offline. Other passages mirrored those written by several conservative historians.
"Alongside the author and literary agent, we take these matters very seriously," a spokesperson for Zondervan, a Christian publisher owned by HarperCollins, said in a statement Wednesday regarding the Carson book. "We will work with Dr. Carson and his agent to review the information and will respond appropriately."
Carson's agent, Sealy Yayes, told the Associated Press that Carson had provided Zondervan with all of his source material and had thought the publisher would make sure the book included adequate attribution.
"America the Beautiful" was co-written by Carson's wife, Candy Carson.
"Certainly, the Carsons were relying on their publisher, as all authors do," Yates said. "It doesn't mean that the author is not responsible, but the Carsons felt they had fully complied will all their responsibility."
The extent of the potential fallout from the report is unclear. At least one of the authors involved told BuzzFeed he granted permission to duplicate up to 10,000 words of his work as long as he was credited, which Carson did in the book's footnotes.
Carson retired from Hopkins in 2013 after a celebrated career in pediatric neurosurgery. Talk of a potential presidential campaign began to swirl after he delivered a fiery address at the National Prayer Breakfast in Washington in February. He now lives in Florida.
He has said he will make a decision about whether to seek the GOP nomination by this spring.
The story is similar to a 2013 report from BuzzFeed regarding passages of a book written by Sen. Rand Paul that were copied from a report by a conservative think tank. The sections were updated with more attribution in subsequent printings, according to BuzzFeed.
