The Inception of Labor Day - Soil for American Socialism
On May 6, 2016, during the heat of the presidential election, Gallup ran an article by Frank Newport titled: “Americans' Views of Socialism, Capitalism Are Little Changed.” The gist of Newport’s story was that Americans’ attitude towards socialism was not much different than it had been in 2010. Gallup’s poll indicated that 35% of Americans queried admitted to a favorable image of socialism, while 60% of those polled had a positive image of capitalism.- Sunday, September 2, 2018
