Solution: Begin the process of privatizing all education in this nation from pre-K through university graduate school. What is needed is complete separation of school and state.
Yes, precisely. It won't happen, of course, but in theory this is the only legitimate conservative position, in my view.
” Begin the process of privatizing all education in this nation from pre-K through university graduate school. What is needed is complete separation of school and state.”
I certainly do not disagree with this. I think the key to this is not so much the separating of the school and state (which I do agree with), as the end-result requiring citizens to be actively responsible for themselves, their children, and to seek assistance from non-governmental entities when they need help.
This encourages independence from government, and the building of institutions of local relevance, including neighborhood relationships, as well as church and civic group relationships.
