Education Secretary Arne Duncan on Tuesday proposed the idea of public boarding schools, saying there are just certain kids we should have 24/7.
One idea that I threw out is the idea of public boarding schools, Duncan said at the National Summit on Youth Violence Prevention in Crystal City, Va. Thats a little bit of a different ideaa controversial ideabut the question is do we have some children where theres not a mom, theres not a dad, theres not a grandma, theres just nobody at home? Theres just certain kids we should have 24/7 to really create a safe environment and give them a chance to be successful. [ ]
I think all of our schools should be community centers, Duncan said. Our schools should be open 12, 13, 14 hours a day with a wide variety of after-school programming. Thankfully, in the vast, vast majority of communities around the nation, our schools are actually safe havens.
[Theres] very little violence happening in schools. The vast majority is on the streets. If we could keep our kids there longer, we think that makes a lot of sense.

Your kids belong to us.

It Takes a Village. .
Any parent that does not support their child is abusing/neglecting the child.
That's prima facie cause to remove the child to an institution that can meet their basic needs.
And it would be no more expensive, possibly LESS expensive that Welfare...which supports the piece of sh!t parent too.
It would also sever as a disincentive to combining poverty and pregnancy...ultimately reducing the number of children in need.
CORRECT Art!
That is exactly what the point of this is.
Hillary Spelled it out right there. They need the Youth.
That is way KINDERGARTEN is a GERMAN word, it came from Prussia to raise the child in the state as early as possible
Because in the olden days, when a kid started 1st Grade you were Six sometimes Seven! That is quite old for early indoctrination.
Even if this were a great idea (it is not), where would the money come from.
Oh, silly me: The Rich.
The remedy for failed socialism is invariably more socialism.
One might recall the history of The Carlisle Indian School and the leftist reaction to an undertaking that was motivated by a turn-of-the-century Christian impulse. The left absolutely hates the experiment because it sought to Christianize Indians, civilize them, prepare them for competition in the world and discipline them. Leftists regard that as inappropriate but I suspect their new version of The Carlisle Indian School would have much the same impulse but with all the Christian love carefully laundered out.
The impulse on the left is always the same, to treat people like chickens in a Skinner box and reeducate them according to their values. At least Christians who exposed Indian kids like Jim Thorpe to their school had a decent set of values and a true philosophy. They sought to create a generation of independent people rather than a generation of dependents.
Also coming just after Barry bemoaned the rich (other than he and Shelly, apparently) sending their kids to private school.
What he really meant was no kids should be able to attend private schools unless all kids can.
Like Hillary, they’re raising a village to take your child. It’s not bad enough that the DNC has its own official pedophilia wing in the NEA. How bad would the abuse become in these camps?
You are not that far off of the progressive plan to institutionalize all children and replace all families.
keep the kids away from the union loving public school teachers!
Been predicting this for years. They want the children fully indoctrinated into the govt.
I just did some quick figuring and estimate that if they enrolled 5 million kids, it would require $350 billion up-front to build the schools, and about $140 billion a year thereafter for salaries and expenses to operate them. And I was trying to be conservative. In the real world, my figures would probably double.
The Communist Manifesto has “predicted” this for years as well. Not for nothing did they stipulate “(f)ree education for all children in public schools”.
It’s been tried...by the Khmer Rouge!
Commit your offspring to a government mental-adjustment institution and you no longer have any reason to complain about what the government decides to do with its children.
Stop wimpering. You made your bed...
That’s what we’ll get if Hillary “it takes a village” Clinton wins.
This guy has never gone on You Tube and done a search for "High School Fight."
