I think we desperately need the Education Department. We just need to redefine it’s Core Mission.
The Department of Education SHALL have only 3 Responsibilities .
1. Guarantee that EVERY SCHOOL IN AMERICA Teaches US HISTORY.
2. Guarantee that EVERY SCHOOL IN AMERICA Teach The US COnstitution,Declaration of Independence, Federalist Papers, ALL HISTORIC DOCUMENTS
3 Require ALL Students to demonstrate Proficiency in EVERY ASPECT of the US Constitution, including All Arguments for said Article or Amendment that brought it into existence, Before receiving a DIPLOMA!
If we think we can’t eliminate the education department, perhaps we’re just not trying hard enough.
Step 1: Permanent hiring/promotion freeze for the Department of Education.
Step 2: Eliminate all frivolous expenditures for the Department of Education (travel, morale, etc.).
Step 3. Eliminate useless Department of Education jobs individually if they contribute insufficient value to justify their cost.
Step 4: Relocate the entire remaining department to northern Alaska (a beautiful state, but anathema to delicate leftists).
Nothing reduced in govt has ever STAYED that way. Hell, Zero did it to welfare w/ a pen/phone...not a ONE in D.C. said a word in protest (except to use it in their political ads).
The *ONLY* way is to eradicate the whole stinking, illegal lot. Tear it out by the roots, burn the field, salt the Earth and Fukushima the site.
