Here’s a revolutionary idea: Turn off the TV, stop chasing Mammon, quit remodeling your kitchen and take an hour off to attend a local school board meeting. Commies are in classrooms brainwashing children because conservatives are too damn lazy to get involved in local government. The Founders warned you that liberty requires vigilance. You failed. What are you gonna do about it?
Regarding: School board meetings
What a waste of time. It is impossible to reform socialist-entitlement, godless, compulsory, and single payer programs. And...Government schooling is the very definition of a socialist-entitlement, single-payer, compulsory, godless, price-fixed, and cartel monopoly program.
Solution: Abolish the school boards and work to shut down socialist-entitlement, single-payer schooling. Begin the process of privatizing K-12 schooling.
While our Founders wanted and educated citizenry they would be appalled at out system of government owned and run socialist-entitlement, godless, and single-payer schools. They are producing godless and socialist voters but certainly NOT educated citizens.
I fail to see why I have any obligation whatsoever to fund your children's education (or that of any other than my own) or waste time and effort down at the local edjumakashun collective wrangling with committed Marxists, National Edumakashun Association or American Federation of "Teachers" commissars to guide policy down at P.S. 666 where God is a four-letter word, where patriotism is regarded as "jingoism" and where common sense is regarded as reaction.
Turning off the TV is always a good idea as is a lessening of the endless chase for mammon (bearing in mind the Scriptural injunction that those who will not work will not eat). Remodeling your kitchen is infinitely more likely to be a successful and effective use of your time than wrestling with the Marxists and birdbrains running the local edjamakashun collective as though it were actually possible to influence those tax wasting pigs.
My wife and I saw that our elder children were largely homeschooled and then my wife went to work for a strictly private Catholic K-12 established by the parents to avoid even the parochial schools (also infested even in this conservative diocese by the usual gang of leftist suspects.
Really Catholic priests from many parishes compete to spend time with this private school where Latin begins in about 5th grade, history is taught with strong Catholic and American values, algebra is mastered BEFORE high school, theology is taught in every grade, and everyone attends Mass on First Fridays at the local Tridentine (old Latin Mass) parish. Class sizes are small and tuition is affordable and the parents actively volunteer in many capacities to keep the school viable. That's what we have done. How about you?
We are far too vigilant to expose our kids to P.S. 666 or its bureaucratic bosses and union masters. How is that wrassling with the gummint skewels' godless commies going for you?
The conservative goal ought to be nothing less than abolition of the gummint skewels.
