Not that anyone in this unprincipled, totalitarian White House will care, but where in the Constitution does it say that Americans' children are the property of the Federal Government?
The vast majority of American parents send their kids to public schools. That is the fact of the situation. I havent seen any Constitutional challenges to close the schools down. If you're making it a Constitutional issue, I think you're on shakey ground and Founders talked about the importance of having everyone educated for the public good.
Should we just let the liberals have their way in schools and at the Dept of Ed or should we join the fray with out ideas.
