Fox News and Republican Party's economic agenda exposed through school worksheet outrage [View all]

Fox News 'The Five' host Eric Bolling attacked an algebra worksheet, which he claimed was "pushing the liberal agenda," reports RawStory.com (video below).

The worksheet, by Scholastic, gives students “insight into the distributive property as it applies to multiplication,”

Bolling said: “Distribute the wealth! Distribute the wealth with the lovely rich girl with a big ole bag of money, handing some money out.”

Co-host Kimberly Guilfoyle said the algebra worksheet her on “high alert” for the liberal agenda in her 6-year-old son’s education.

This isn't about "socialism" and if capitalism stopped serving their goals they would hate that too.

Everything that does involve a rich person getting money is "redistribution" to them. It is quite simply this they want: You are given a small bag of money from one rich person, you hold onto that bag for a very small amount of time, and sooner or later you will give that small bag of money back to that rich person or another rich person. That money going anywhere else or if it is even delayed in it's journey, then that is... wait for it... MARXISM!!!1!
