The NEA and government have been using Liberal propaganda and brainwashing in the the public schools since 1980. If you doubt that, look at your children’s paperwork and curriculum. The teacher’s were raised on this propaganda via their professors. We’ve come full circle.
Read President Reagan’s report “A Nation At Risk.”
Watch James Clavell’s short story “The Children’s Story.”

It only took one to three generations of socialist-entitlement schooling to give the nation Franklin D. Roosevelt and his crypto-Marxist programs.
Fundamentally, public schooling is ( and **always** has been) a single-payer socialist entitlement. It is working **exactly** as designed by the Progs of the 19th century.
I believe it began much earlier than 1980. Maybe 1965 or 1968.
