Great example, one I am familiar with since I was in education is the Department of Education. It does suck, but maintaining a national standardized in curriculum is in the best interest.

Yet another line on your statist resume. I'd be curious where our Constitution says that the federal government has the right to dictate to the States what their curriculum will be.

Ok, I see with whom I am dealing.

I am a statist now because I know it is important in the TWENTY FIRST CENTURY to set and maintain a uniform standard in secondary and higher education.

We are, in a technologically advanced and complex world, way past the one room school house as a solution.

Show me where having one group of our citizens remain educationally behind the rest is supported in the constitution, much less by the founders...

Where is it written that it is a good thing to no longer be competitive in the 21st century world.

Please wake up and realize it is not 1900 anymore...

Or don't, it is basically irrelevant to those of us living in the real world
