Homeschool.
Starve the beast.
The fewer pupils the school collective has, the fewer federal dollars it gets.
Of course, that wouldn’t stop them from fudging the number, because commies are gonna commie.
You are a tax payer. It is your money paying their salaries.
YOU need to keep an eye on them.
If you do not you are neglecting your duty to the community.
Think of it the way you would jury duty.
Thank you for mentioning so-called "federal" funding for public schools Westbrook. Consider that federal funding for INTRAstate schooling is arguably unconstitutional for the following explanation.
First, not only is the word "education" not a constitutional term, but President Thomas Jefferson, in a State of the Union address, and Justice Joseph Story, had both indicated that the states have never expressly constitutionally given the feds the specific power to tax and spend for intrastate educational purposes.
“The great mass of the articles on which impost is paid is foreign luxuries, purchased by those only who are rich enough to afford themselves the use of them. Their patriotism would certainly prefer its continuance and application to the great purposes of the public education, roads, rivers, canals, and such other objects of public improvement as it may be thought proper to add to the constitutional enumeration of federal powers [emphases added].” —Thomas Jefferson: 6th Annual Message, 1806." (Jefferson is indicating that Congress cannot tax and spend in the name of intrastate infrastructure imo.)
"Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States." —Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.
"The power to regulate manufactures is no more confided to congress, than the power to interfere with the systems of education, the poor laws, or the road laws" of the states [emphases added]." —Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2, 1833.
"From the accepted doctrine that the United States is a government of delegated powers, it follows that those not expressly granted, or reasonably to be implied from such as are conferred, are reserved to the states, or to the people. To forestall any suggestion to the contrary, the Tenth Amendment was adopted. The same proposition, otherwise stated, is that powers not granted are prohibited [emphasis added]." —United States v. Butler, 1936.
In other words, career state lawmakers who brag about winning “federal” funding for their state are evidently not aware that such funding is arguably state revenues which have been stolen from the states by means of unconstitutional federal taxes.
State lawmakers would probably find a tsunami of new revenues for many things that their respective states want to do if they would put a stop to unconstitutional federal taxes, taxes that Congress cannot justify under its Article I, Section 8-limited powers, indicated by the excerpt from Gibbons v. Ogden above.
Insights welcome.
The ultimate remedy for unconstitutionally big, alleged election-stealing, Democratic Party-pirated federal and state governments manufacturing crises to oppress everybody under their boots...
Consider that all the states can effectively “secede” from the unconstitutionally big federal government by doing the following.
Patriots need to primary federal and state elected officials who don't send voters email ASAP that clearly promises to do the following.
Federal and state lawmakers need to promise in their emails to introduce resolutions no later than 100 days after start of new legislative sessions that proposes an amendment to the Constitution to the states, the amendment limited to repealing the 16th and ill-conceived 17th Amendments.
Again, insights welcome.
