She’s right...we don’t need the Dept of Education.

As I understand it, the public school system was full force incorporated into American society after WW2 because we were led to believe we had a few difficulties with getting men to co-operate in some areas and that a 'common' education would have facilitated a few operations ... or something like that.

Maybe we were just handed a bill of goods and we were too proud to see correctly and/or say no.

Whatever ... with home schooling and the internet, true education no longer needs to be standardized.

local day prisons, on the other hand should remain in place, well guarded.

Do not need Dept. of Education just the Board of Education applied to the seat of learning!!

“She’s right...we don’t need the Dept of Education.”

I agree, but what bothers me is that some people won’t understand what getting rid of the Federal Department of Education means.

They might think it means getting rid of education altogether, and not giving the freedom and responsibility to their state, plus saving a lot of money, and improving their children’s education, which is supposed to be what education is about.
