Parents must be held partially responsible for the diet of propaganda we see in government primary and secondary schools. They are not paying attention to their children's education, they are not reviewing textbooks and other classroom materials, and they are not complaining to educrats and school boards. They have entrusted the malleable minds of their children to social engineers and low-IQ educators who have been dumbed down by years of Marxist cirricula on so-called "teaching" campuses.

State-run indocrination centers, posing as "schools," are a scourge on America. They have turned several generations of our children into uncritical adherents of the nanny state and devotees of cultural Marxism.

We need an all-private school system. Government should be kept out of education -- for reasons that by now are all too obvious.

Great Response, and I agree.

Parents obviously are not reviewing the material, or they agree with it as a result of the brainwashing they received at one of the universities.

Multiculturalism is so deep in any and everything governmental, that it's now reached the hospitals. Upon visiting the hospital, today, I noticed that there was a card on top of the nurses station that said, "Spanish for kids". I read what the card said, and it indicated that they were offering classes at the hospital to help your child "learn the Spanish language and culture". This was visually upsetting, for why would anyone need to take Spanish culture classes? What about French, German, etc.? Why merely Spanish? I asked the nurse what it was about, and she stated that because of the huge influx of Spanish speaking people into the area, they had decided to start teaching Spanish. I asked her, "why aren't we teaching English to them, since they are clearly in the minority". Why would we need to teach the overwhelmingly larger population another language in their own country, as opposed to teaching a smaller group of Spanish speaking people, many of whom are illegal aliens, our language, English. The nurse answered my question with, "I agree with you. However, we have to". I stated that this is inciting division in our country and is a threat to our stability. She agreed. I then asked her if it was the government who was making them give Spanish speaking classes to children. She stated that it was the government who was dictating to the Hospital system that they teach Spanish.

Thus, there is really no area that the government doesn't have control.
