Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. When an opponent declares, “I will not come over to your side,” I calmly say, “Your child belongs to us already… What are you? You will pass on. It als o shouldn’t surprise anyone that Nazi Germany embraced wage controls, Social Security, public schooling, a government-managed economy, a military-industrial complex, and other programs that have long been central to the American progressive program.Ī quote by Hitler regarding the importance of public schooling, one of the main German socialist programs that progressives imported to the United States, should be contemplated by every American who enthusiastically supports the idea that the state should be responsible for the education of people’s children: Social Security Administration has a bust of Bismarck on its website. So, it shouldn’t surprise anyone that the U.S. The German socialists came up with all sorts of socialist and interventionist programs that would later be embraced by German leader Otto von Bismarck, the so-called Iron Chancellor of Germany, as well as American progressives. From socialists in Germany in the late 1800s.
Guess where American progressives originally got their philosophy and their ideas. They say judge the law by its good intentions, not by the actual consequences of the intervention. That’s why black teenagers suffer a chronic unemployment rate of some 40 percent. Of course, never mind that minimum-wage laws hurt those at the bottom of the economic ladder - those who labor is valued in the marketplace at less than the state-mandated minimum. The state must step in and correct things. Progressives hold that in the absence of such laws, employers will pay employees subsistence wages or less. So, government must step in to remake society through the use of force.Ī good example is minimum-wage laws. It’s not sufficient for the state to simply leave people alone who are engaged in purely peaceful activities, progressives say, because doing that will result in undesirable consequences. The basic principle of progressivism is that the force of the state can and should be used to improve society. Another one is “ Eugenics: Progressivism’s Ultimate Social Engineering” by Art Carden and Steven Horwitz, posted at The Foundation for Economic Education’s website. A good one is “ Eugenics, American Progressivism, and the ‘German Idea of the State’” by Tiffany Jones Miller, which is posted at the Library of Law and Liberty website.
Just Google “eugenics progressives” and you’ll come up with an extensive list of online articles.
There is lots of information on the Internet on this subject.

In case you’ve ever wondered where German leader Adolf Hitler got his ideas on how to purify German society, especially through medical experimentation on people, the answer is: American progressives and, specifically, their eugenics program.
