Here in this little place I like to affectionately call home - Florida -
we had a state-mandated course for all secondary school students called
'Americanism vs Communism' requiring course materials that promoted
(quoting from the law) "the system of constitutional government and the
free-enterprise, competitive economy indigenous to the U.S."
