Socialism At A Glance, American Polarization - In The Tank #443

The Heartland Institute’s Donald Kendal, Chris Talgo, and Linnea Lueken present episode 443 of the In The Tank Podcast. Heartland's Socialism Research Center just released a new book, Socialism At A Glance. Socialism at a Glance attempts to fill that educational deficiency, providing a succinct summary of socialism's origins and rise in modern history while also giving detailed case studies of some of the most infamous socialist regimes that rose to power in the 20th century, including some that still exist to this day. Also, is the political rhetoric getting more polarized in America? Are the left and right getting further apart?
