Agreed. How can we have the government educate children without the risk (or more likely the certainty) that those children will be taught that government is to be viewed as ever-benign rather than a semi-necessary evil, that anyone who tells others what to do is assumed to be more knowledgeable than the people who actually engage in the productive endeavor? That you’re always assumed to be noble when you’re meddling in the lives of others, backed by the threat of force, while minding your own business and dealing with others on a purely voluntary basis earns you the assumption of selfishness if not lack of integrity?

When children attend the government's godless and single-payer indoctrination camps two things happen:

1) They **WILL** learn to think and reason godlessly. The must just to cooperate in the godless classroom. How could it be otherwise?

2) They risk learning to be comfortable with single-payer socialism! Gee! If the voting mob can give them tuition-free schooling, why not use that voting mob to get **lots** of “free” stuff?

( Yes, I am shouting, jumping up and down, and having a fit.)
