The United States of Stupid
By Alan Caruba
In 1983, the National Commission on Excellence in Education released a report titled “A Nation at Risk” that documented nationwide failure in American schools. Not much has changed since then and the federal takeover of school curriculums and testing methods has mercilessly continued with the Bush administration’s No Child Left Behind and the Obama administration’s Race to the Top.
The Sorry State of Education in America
By J. D. Longstreet
One-room schoolhouses turned out scholars of unequaled accomplishment when compared to today’s graduates. A high school education, just 50 years ago, is the equivalent of a college degree today. Our Public School teachers are barely qualified to teach. But, they have a Union to see that they are paid well, whether the can teach or not! Oh, you thought teachers unions were for the welfare of the students??? Surely you jest!
No Wonder Henry Ford Said “History Is Bunk”
Elementary school history teachers aren’t supposed to be giants in the field, but I think most parents expect teachers, particularly those evaluating textbooks, demonstrate enough interest in the subject to notice the book had more states in the Confederacy than existed in reality.
Destroying the False Racial Narrative and Creating True Equality
There are millions of people of all races that are caught in the poor education-poverty-crime-hopeless trap. To help them, or in some cases, encourage them, to escape, we’d also have to do a phase-down on the nanny state. Benefits would have to be restructured, yet again, to encourage success, and not penalize it. Caps and limits would need to be imposed to put an end to system-induced inter-generational dependency.
States must boot Federal Department of Education
No where in Art. 1, Section 8 of the U.S. Constitution does it give the Outlaw Congress the authority to take over education in this country. If the framers of the Constitution meant for the GENERAL government to legislate education, it would have been specifically enumerated in the clauses under Art. 1, Sec. 8. It is not because education is the domain of the states of the Union – an internal operation.
Why Are Schools of Education Such an Oxymoron?
Most of the problems of modern public education originate outside the school building. The locus of the worst influences are schools of education that turn out teachers and administrators who have absorbed four to six years of fantasy–based theory and practice.
Our Schools, Dumb and Dumber
As the nation’s children return to elementary and secondary schools, it is increasingly essential that their parents and communities coast to coast realize how poorly served they are and how their learning environment is increasingly tainted by a socialist agenda.
Totalitarian Collectivism: Part 6 – School
By: SARTRE
Government schools act as community social welfare centers. Outreach and remedial education is not just for “special needs” students, it is a staple of the state syllabus. Can this reality be attributed to genetic defects alone? Blaming it on the drinking water just does not fly. The more money spent on public education, the greater the decay in intellectual standards.
The Obama School Address Controversy
It is bad enough for agents of the state to guide the student through a mental exercise with the largely predetermined goal of increasing the student’s fidelity to a particular presidential administration. It is even worse when plans are made to determine and catalogue the degree of compliance on the part of students.
Cognitive Dissonance Revisited
…The Key to Defeating the Progressives.
Socialism collapses in the presence of doubt. In the examples of the fallen Soviet Bloc dictatorships, we see that once the people no longer “believed in” the state, and that their doubt overcame the fear of the state, the state collapsed. This is instructive because it shows us the path towards defeating the POTUS and his socialist policies. …
Conservative Hideout Freedom Plan: The Parental Rights Amendment
Untold billions of dollars are tied up in the public indoctrination machine. The unions, the special interests, and the politicians that want a complaint army of useful idiots, all have a stake in indoctrinating youth. They won’t let this pass lying down. So, we structure the fight so they have to show their true colors. Let them come with false claims. We’ll show where the money goes.
2010′s Top Anxieties
The list is subjective; based on an analysis of the past year’s headlines and anticipated events. It incorporates on-going, often long term concerns that Americans have expressed.
The Public School System is a Failure
The Public Schools system of the US has crashed and burned! No longer are our children the best educated in the world. Now our scholars rank among the less well educated even among a few of the third world countries. This is a shame we have brought upon ourselves by inviting the Federal Government and the Unions into our schools.
We Don’t Like to Stock That, It Sells Too Well
Maybe the big thinkers at Indoctrination Control were hoping parents would change their collective mind and decide a school with uniforms, expectations, community service and discipline was a bad idea after all and embrace more “progressive” educational theory like “white guilt.”
