“...Home School Your Children...”
This is so important maybe it should have been first. The government schools have successfully molded the up and coming generations and taught them how to groupthink since the 1960’s. Ironically they think they are the non conformists. It is laughable if not so dangerous for the country.
Home schooling the young unfortunately isolates and “ghettoizes” the young to a certain degree. Some say this is good, but an entire alternative school system that teaches the classics (including non Keynesian economics) and critical thinking would work as well but difficult to implement.
Home schooling is an OK solution though at some point the socialization needs to occur; albeit a socialization where the group is based on understanding the correct foundation vs. the pseudo utopian crap they are being indoctrinated with now in the government schools.

We've been concentrating on the threee Rs but will be expanding this year. They are lacking in socialization yet we get nothing but compliments about how polite and well behaved they are around other people when we do get out. They actually say May I and Thank You. They're not shy or awkward. They're just not hyper and unruly, until they start playing with the other kids maybe. They do have the ability to swap into kid mode.
We've been using the Robinson Curriculum which requires minimal financial and time input on the parents part and the book list is the classics. We've been mixing in newer stuff because they were starting to talk funny. (who actually says "I shan't" LOL)
I think we're going to finish out the school year with some history, government, elections, socialism and maybe a little Critical Theory; the origins of and current useage. I'm sure they've learned quite a bit already because I get my news from the internet and relay it verbally to my wife and the kids ask about whatever they don't understand.
