high-quality preschool:

- free babysitting

- teaching kids you don’t want to teach yourself

This is nothing but a baby sitting program. When it started, it was a couple days a week and a parent went with the child. It was a social learning situation for a couple of hours.

As it's set up now, it's an overpaid babysitter trying to teach not much of anything. Stats prove the program does not benefit chidren's learning.

I started full time kindergarten at age 4 1/2 circa 1950. Then they changed the cutoff from Feb 1 to whatever. My granddaughter was 2 months short of 6 when she started kindergarten. Ridiculous!!

Get rid of the whole damn program and let the neighbor watch your kid for a few bucks.

Plagiarizing ME from before:

More ways (and more unfair ways)for working Americans to subsidize the BS life style of irresponsible and lazy idiots who want to bear children whether or not they are able to support them.

The will pop their illegitimate brats, dump them on the state and go on with their worthless, lazy, druggie-party lives and ALL on our nickel.

Can you imagine what the next few generations of monsters will be like who have been TOTALLY the spawn of irresponsible and worthless losers who make the ‘sate’ their daddy?

Think there’s social mayhem NOW? Just wait!

Whoever said that we’re becoming a feral society was right!

It’s just another entry point for the Welfare State. Preschool will turn out to consist of feeding and clothing kids and probably parental indoctrination.

Before our kids and grandkids hit the education system, they all knew their alphabets, numbers and were reading at levels well above the grade level at which they entered. They knew all those things from us and their parents – at HOME!
Comes now Barack “The Great” Obama with an effort to resurrect the old plan to get 3 year-olds into the government school system with a system of pre-schools.
Let me see if I have this right:
The current schools K thru 12 are turning out hundreds of thousands of kids each year who are barely literate, don’t understand basic math but DO know how to slide a condom over a cucumber.
(As an aside, they must use really small cukes, most of these kids have repeated 6 grades or I should have been eating in the local high school lunchroom all these years.)
The country is essentially broke and here comes Dear Leader with another expensive program. This does, of course, meet his Cloward-Piven, Saul Alinsky Prime Directive to break the bank and drive the America he hates to her knees en-route to third world status.
The pre-school program makes sense to these cunning but delusional leftists: If the current leftist/progressive K thru 12 system is so effective in indoctrinating future voters that government is the solution to every problem and carried a dissembling Marxist into the White Hut, they must be nearly orgasmic at the thought of getting their hands on the kiddies 3 or 4 years SOONER!
We must NOT allow that to happen!
A quote from the sad history of Europe for you to consider:
“When an opponent declares, ‘I will not come over to your side,’ I calmly say, ‘Your child belongs to us already... What are you? You will pass on. Your descendants, however, now stand in the new camp. In a short time they will know nothing else but this new community’.” Adolph Hitler Speech November 1933

Hitler was stopped before he could accomplish his goals. If the few remaining sane adults remaining in America do not wrest control of the government schools from the progressives/leftists/big government statists now running them, we have only ourselves to blame if another Obama – or far, far worse – appears on the scene.
And we are far closer to that point than you may think!
And the saddest element of all of this is that these future Americans won’t even understand that the birthright we took for granted has been snatched from them and their progeny.
A short video for your further consideration: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D0lR1KQq2-U

At-risk children who don't go to preschool are 25 percent more likely to drop out of school, 60 percent more likely not to attend college and 70 percent more likely to be arrested for a violent crime. As one Alabama business leader said in a New York Times story today, "The evidence is, if we don't make this investment and we don't make it wisely, we're going to pay for it later.

Whew!! Talk about overloading the BS meter!! I didn't attend pre-school. I graduated from high school and just earned my third college degree.

But, that's not what is behind this "initiative" by zero. This plan is one that was successfully pushed by very liberal (and Obama sycophant) San Antonio mayor Julian Castro, whom some liberal pundits believe is a Democrat up'n comer. Castro has a 4 year-old kid for whom he doesn't want to pay for pre-school, so he dreamed up this plan that would get the San Antonio residents to pay for it by raising sales tax by 1/8 cent.

And, San Antonians, not being among the sharpest knives in the drawer, went for it!! That's where zero got the idea. Castro called his plan "Pre-K for SA". Obama calls his plan "Another Screw Job for America!"

Julian Castro is a slimy, sneaky snake that has all the charm of a used car salesman. He also has a twin brother, Joaquin, who was recently elected to the House of Representatives. While I don't live in San Antonio, I live close enough and watch these two crooks at work. I don't like either one and wouldn't trust either of them to help the foxes guard the henhouse, much less have any concern for either the foxes or the hens. Julian Castro is about as cold-blooded as they come.

By the by, if you want to know what is in the soul of a leftist, you need look no further than their eyes. They are dead inside and their eyes betray that fact.

Didn’t catch a clue in the comments, sorry if I missed it.

This is about USG indoctrination. The sooner the better for Jungen... Duh.

Be glad that he isn’t seizing children at birth, separating them into groups, indoctrinating those that he wishes into his socialist agenda, and “disposing” of the rest.
