I received the following in email awhile back about the Dumbing Down of America.  Maine and New England are the worst culprits when it comes to our school system and the teachers trying to frame the young minds sitting before them in a class room.

I had watched Kelley Taylor Ryan's(public access show in southern Maine I

referred to previously) interview with the author of "The Deliberate Dumbing

Down of America". This author has in her book all the documentation to

support the following: Maine is leading the US in instituting a communist

curriculum in it's school systems to dumb-down the people so the power

seekers will have more malleable subjects. She has worked in the Maine school

systems since the 70's and as I said, has retained the documentation and

plans for how our government will accomplish this. The book is $50 and can

only be ordered from a private publisher so I do not have it as yet myself.

I do have "Cloning of The American Mind" and started reading it yesterday.

In it, Eakman explains how surveys mixed in with school achievement tests

are used to see how the dumbing-down is working and provide the means to see

where the curriculum needs to be changed.

Already, advertisers and politicians are using databases loaded with personal information on each one of us to target us for various sales ploys. As I read about this, the light bulb went off: Now picture one of these huge databases collecting

student's answers to surveys on their own personal laptop and using the

computer to gear curriculum for each individual student to influence their

morals, political views, and dumbing-down. Each student will have their own

curriculum programmed to manipulate their minds, their own personal

brainwasher, if you will. And guess which state is leading in attempting to

instill this program? – MAINE!

Maine,of all places.

Maine was alwsy considered,by us in Massachusetts,as a place where independence,stubborness,and self reliance was the big thing.

"As Maine goes,so goes the nation." Sad to see these changes.It was probably all the Mass libs moving to Maine that started the state on the road to socialism.
