Common Core is part of an effort to implement regionalism, the replacement of local governments by regional boards of federally appointed bureaucrats, who in turn are beholden to international bodies. Regionalism will eliminate the freedom parents now have in choosing neighborhoods with good schools because tax funds will be distributed equally.
There will be no escape in home schooling or private schools either, because the curriculum will follow national tests. Students will be tracked through mandatory state records that will then be accessible to Washington bureaucrats. Ultimately, all students will be subject to education mandates implemented by Obama’s radical cronies.
NOT LETTING A CRISIS GO TO WASTE
Standards in Medicine are also being implemented to come into line with International requirements. I work in a very large National type laboratory. We are having to bring our workplace into compliance with standards that originate in Switzerland. Obamacare will bring our medical care level down to the same level as European Socialist medicine. Americans will NOT BE AMUSED. Our medical system was the best. It is rapidly being dismantled and, when Americans wake up and realize what is happening, it will be waaaaaay too late. It is already too late for many areas of medicine. More's the pity. This is what will happen with Nationalized education. STATES RIGHTS, PLEASE!
