Future generations will not fight to defend fundamental principles and freedoms if they do not understand history and the price paid for the freedom we enjoy.
The greatest sin of modern American life is the deliberate dumbing of our children. Education is the key to freedom. We're putting our children in chains by keeping them ignorant.
"Only the educated are free." -- Epictetus.
"While a man can be kept ignorant, he cannot be made ignorant." -- Bertrand Russell.
"The foundation of every State is the education of its youth." -- Diogenes
"Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe. " -- H. G. Wells.
Keep the fire of intellect burning. It's fueled by knowledge, and is sparked by curiosity.
Freedom, Wealth, and Peace,
Francis W. Porretto

Some political philosophies have proven their merit and other have proven their lack of merit. To ignore these distinctions is to doom our future generations to the same mistakes we've already learned the hard way.
