Lesson 1 (*) (Note that an asterisk * indicates that there is a worksheet on this lesson)

Welcome to your first day of school! I wanted to give you one important reminder before you begin. Many of your lessons below have an internet link for you to click on. When you go to the different internet pages for your lessons, please DO NOT click on anything else on that page except what the directions tell you to. DO NOT click on any advertisements or games. DO NOT click on anything that takes you to a different website. Just stay focused on your lesson and then close that window and you should be right back here for the next lesson. Okay?

1. If you didn’t get here through My EP Assignments, I suggest you go there and create an account.
2. (*) Print out your first quarter grading sheet or use the Excel version.
3. The first half of the year we’ll be learning about American government. It’s an example of a representative government, where the people vote on those who will represent them in government to make the decisions about the laws of the country.
4. You’ve already studied American history, so you know America’s beginnings. We’re going to focus on the “Documents of Freedom” and learn about the structure of US government and how you can participate in the great American experiment.
5. The Unique Idea of the American Constitution – Read this article as an introduction to the course. The second half of the year, we’ll be looking at other types of governments and how they affect the people living under them.
6. Governments and cultures reflect each other. America’s culture is very individualistic. We believe individuals are important, individuals have a voice, individuals matter. We believe the people give the government power. We have the “American Dream” where you can work hard and build a successful life for yourself.
7. Under governments such as communism, the individual loses value. The individual doesn’t have a similar dream. What they are working for is the good of the “state,” not for the good of themselves and their family.
8. Americans are losing sight of how special America is. As Americans lose their belief in the one true God, they are losing their belief in our very foundation. What happens when a foundation isn’t secure? (Matthew 7:24-27)
9. So here we go, America’s foundation…
10. Read this introduction. Write down these words and your version of their definition.

2. I’ve heard a lot of young people arguing for “democratic socialism” because they get free stuff and it feels like they keep control because it’s democratic, meaning they get a vote. So, I wanted to give my explanation of the difference between communism, socialism, and democratic socialism.
   • Communism is government control by force.
     • This is why people say communism is bad and that socialism isn’t like communism. The socialists aren’t torturing and killing people.
   • Socialism is government control by design.
     • One way this plays out is in high taxes. They control you by taking your money and then “giving” it to you. That way you have to rely on them.
     • I knew a family that wanted to homeschool desperately. They lived near the Polish border and could have lived in Poland to homeschool while the husband worked in Germany. The problem was they couldn’t afford it. They gave half of their pay check to Germany, and need the payback from the government in order to live. They would have been free to live elsewhere and homeschool if it weren’t by design that they would “need” the government.
     • They ended up moving to Ireland to be free to homeschool. We have an EP family in Ireland that helped them!
   • Democratic socialism is government control by vote.
     • It’s really kind of the ideal for leaders since people are willingly becoming their servants, but that also makes it the saddest of the three.
   • They all have the same end, just different means. They all create a system of government control. Homeschooling is illegal in these places for the most part because they want to control the children’s education, what they are taught. In Germany children are to report to the teachers if their parents teach them about God at home. Does that feel like freedom of religion to you? Is it worth a month’s vacation each year?
