The only good govt schools died years ago.

Now, the only good govt school is a dead govt school.

Almost the same for govt colleges - with the exception of our military academies - all of which having curricula that would easily eliminate idiots like the Obamaloon and the MSM.

I liked all the facts presented in this post.

So well researched and footnoted.

I teach literature at the public schools.

I teach the difference of positive and natural law as outlined in the Declaration of Independence.

I also teach Puritan poetry (including “Huswifery” by Taylor, which is an elaborate extended metaphor about God).

The main thing I teach, however, is how to interpret literature, how to write, and how to proofread.

Every day, ALL government teachers **willingly** go into government schools and **willingly** take a paycheck for teaching their students to think and reason godlessly. The government schools BY LAW are godlessly secular in their worldview. The children must learn to think and reason godlessly merely to cooperate in the classroom and do assignments.

I have no problem with this. I don't want the government teaching my kids about God, that's my job.

Proud to see someone with so clear a belief.

The government keeps its schools going with YOUR tax money.

If you pay your taxes, YOU are responsible for continuing the abomination against which you rail.

Therefore, YOU are also the problem.

I'm sure you will IMMEDIATELY cease paying ANY taxes, since to do so makes YOU responsible for the schools' ability to corrupt children.

Put up, or . . .

Well, you pay taxes to support the godless government. Does that make you evil too?

Please remember that when you meet dear Mrs. Smilely ( the teacher who loves her cat) in church or at the supermarket, that every working day she is establishing, supporting, and upholding government schools that teach children to think godlessly, to be comfortable with taking their neighbor's money for "free" stuff, and to submit meekly to the crushing heel of the collectivist voting mob. None of that can that be "good"!

Oh absolutely. Mrs. Smiley should be beaten, tarred, feathered and then run out on a rail. Hell, hang her cat for good measure, that'll teach her. /s

I’ve worked in public schools in the past between real jobs. Not one of the teachers in any of them admitted being a union member or liberal.

IMO, teaching should be a free market occupation.
