Are there any industries that Barack Obama won't consider nationalizing?

Germany has criminalized home schooling, demanding that parents place their children in state schools. California is moving in the same direction. It behooves the Left to preserve the status quo of America's dismal government schools. A look at the Whitehouse education web page indicates Obama plans to continue the leftist obsession with precisely equal educational outcomes, and create cradle-to-grave educational entitlements and increased pre-school conditioning. Get to 'em while they're young is the underlying strategy. To better promote and live out the principles of conservatism, conservatives should abandon the public schools and use private forms of education instead. If the government can't teach reading and writing and 'rithmetic for $10,000 per year per student, why would anyone want them to have more? {The following is based on an FBI strategy report sent to the 14,000-member National Association of Chiefs of Police.} Let us hope that as Obama's children "siphon off" resources from schools that the rest of Washington's families must use, he will see the virtue to giving those families the same opportunities that they have given to his. Many people want to believe that a body of secret knowledge will free them from Christianity’s stern admonitions to work hard, save for a rainy day, abjure hedonism, and recognize that perfection of human life is impossible in the earthly realm. The notion that separate is inherently unequal may be a great slogan, but, like so many other Warren Court overreaches, it led to a host of terrible laws. IC contributing editor, conservative leader and writer Michael Johns, a former White House speechwriter and Heritage Foundation foreign policy analyst, said last night that the United States needs to act with great urgency to secure its southern border with Mexico if it hopes to protect the nation's security interests and begin reversing the many economic [...] Most Americans presume that public schools strive to provide a neutral arena in which multiple religions can be exercised equally. Liberals get really testy when some folks, devout Christians for example, choose to live their lives under God’s laws; but have no compunction in compelling others to live under the tender mercies of the Nanny State where they make the rules. For teachers unions and education bureaucrats, compulsory school attendance is a tool of social control. Socialism, of which liberal-progressivism is the American sect, is more than control of the economy. Most importantly it is mind-control through the public education system. Homeschool Legal Defense Association director Ned Ryun resigned over his group's endorsement of former Arkansaw Governor Mike Huckabee. Children are coming out of school dumb because they aren't taught academics. They have, instead, become experiments in behavior modification. The Qualifications and Curriculum Authority in Britain has dropped Winston Churchill from its list of key historical figures, in order to make room for "modern" issues. Enforcing proper behavior is anathema to liberals, but essential to learning. We are loathe to discuss the dead horse on the living room floor because we don’t want to contemplate the fact that we would have to do something tangible about it. So we simply tiptoe over it and try to ignore its presence. Similarly, that is how we treat school security and prohibiting guns [...] Charter schools may be an unacceptable compromise with the state-controlled education system. Schools must find a way to hire people who are actually competent in their subject areas, and States must demand real standards for graduation from their colleges of education. Big Brother dishes up mealtime regulations for students – but how did "sexual orientation" get on the menu? Poster in a Catholic School cafeteria states that discrimination based on sexual orientation is prohibited. Literally "cafeteria Catholics." In truth, conservatives do not really want intellectual diversity, and rightfully so. |
