The public school system is addicted to the Federal teat. I don't think accepting federal money should automatically make the recipient an arm, extension, agent, of the fed.

It certainly isn't required of the many nations we give aid to, and it should not be required of States.

The states need to take back their power from the broken, over weight Federal government.

But they don't want to.

Have you had a look at your State legislators lately? The last thing any of them want is controversy.

Similarly, the Congress has spent the last seventy-five years abdicating its powers and responsibilities to the President, to the Courts-to anyone who will take the risk of making any voter unhappy.

Until We elect people to office who will act to reclaim Our sovereign power from appointed officials, there is no hope of reform.
