You did suggest distruction, abolishment, etc. I don't think this is what most conservatives desire. I think most conservatives (and liberals) would rather struggle over control.

I'm for abolishment.

Destroy? Abolish? It's all the same to me. We just need to get rid of it. Having the Dept. of Education at all means Federal control of the school systems. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for the helping out when help is NEEDED, but to attach all the criteria to the "help", then to force the criteria on every public school system in the country is wrong. Those aren't Federal Grants anymore, they are payment for socialization. The only way to end it is to end the D of E.
