It is those very 60's kids(myself excluded)who are running the universities, and public schools now. I really believe we need to dismantle the public school system as they have become nothing more than "brainwashing institutions" for the left.

I am a kid of the 50s and 60s. I was a public school teacher for 15 years and began to get disillusioned with it during the mid 80s. It got so bad that we had to be careful what we said, how we dispensed discipline, how we approached parents when there was a problem. The system was so concerned with self-esteem and the "feeling" side of education that anything that demanded learning "how to think for oneself" or anything that was "real-world" based took second place to the touchy feeling side of things. Needless to say, I don't teach any more and there isn't enough money in the entire universe to ever get me back teaching in a classroom.
