Thomas Jefferson knew all about that back in 1776

These schools here in America are wasting our children's time these days. Becoming bastions of social intimidation that if these children don't succumb to it they became shunned and ostracized. That the big word now is bullied.

"To think in the progressive people's political way."

If you were to ask the children going to school today about how the United States Government runs. How they view it and what was the significance of World War II, the 1900 century, the end of the Civil War, the Revolutionary War, or the development after those events. I bet they will not be able to tell you at all.

All of what these same school children today have been told is that we the American people should be ashamed of that. That is what the teachers are teaching now and has reached that point.

That our innocent children are getting polluted by this progressive bureaucracy political propaganda. Living their young lives in a safe place box and that, of course, is not freedom at all.

Thomas Jefferson knew all about that back in 1776 because of how the bureaucrat King George of England was trying to make him live.

They still do the pledge and prayer at my kid's school. The other day he had to write a paper about a hero... he wrote about Desmond Doss. There are still schools out there trying to promote morals but parents also have to help educate their children at home. Don't leave it up to the school to raise your kid.

But do they say the pledge as originally intended with a Bellamy Salute?

I think it's the responsibility of a parent to check up on what their kids are learning in school. It's important to make sure your kids are woke before they go to college so they can be aware of the indoctrination process beforehand.

Pretty damned prophetic....

quote:

Quotation: "If the American people ever allow private banks to control the issue of their currency, first by inflation, then by deflation, the banks and corporations that will grow up around them will deprive the people of all property until their children wake up homeless on the continent their Fathers conquered.... I believe that banking institutions are more dangerous to our liberties than standing armies.... The issuing power should be taken from the banks and restored to the people, to whom it properly belongs."



FYI, The Federal Reserve is a private bank, that issues our currency and controls inflation/deflation.

Jefferson was a large proponent of public education


One of the few areas where I differ from his philosophy greatly.

This U.S. Government political progressive member like Hillary Clinton feels like she is entitled to go to our country public school and experiment with their brand of government progressive bureaucracy. Because they are so much smarter than you and me.

That this government bureaucracy doesn't know anything more about social problems than you and me. Hillary Clinton will never admit to that fact ( that you are just as smart if not smarter) as long as we go on tolerating these progressives very bad social intrusions in how you raise your own children.

This is why I am so disappointed in the Ivy League so much. Because they have been feeding into that government bureaucracy who thinks that they have that entitlement. Performing on TV like they are so refined to do so, but in fact knowing even less than you.

Because you are nothing but a captured mob of housewives and uneducated men who are from the South and North. "That keep leaning on their guns and religion." To quote Barack Obama, remember.

This... sort of.

One of the main reasons private schools are generally more successful than public schools is the level of parental participation in the lives of their child/ren. Another reason is that many private schools still allow an underlying foundation of religious philosophy within the school.

At their core all religions can be boiled down to nothing more than being a philosophy that creates a framework for behavior (some being more responsible than others). While a given person's attitude toward religion and/or spirituality often change as they age, the younger the child that is raised in a home with little to no positive role models, the more they need this foundation (since they have no other).

In this light it's no coincidence that as public schools have moved farther from the allowance of religion (to the point of outright banning of it) those same public schools in general fall behind their private school counterparts.

"If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be"

or

"Lay down true principles, and adhere to them inflexibly. Do not be frightened into their surrender..."

There is a very good book called "A Thomas Jefferson Education" I would encourage anyone to read it.

It is truly much better for me to start reflecting on the more normal people who are working in this country's government. Then the steady stream of political perverts who were running the Washington DC establishment for so many years.

Now we have a normal man in President Donald Trump and his supporters to help past the time with, in a much more constructive way for a very nice change for us.

The mainstream media is melting down, and it has become amazing to us how they just can sit there on TV and talk to each other in front of us like we will go on following what they want us to believe. When, of course, they are living in the same political way that they have been behaving in for so long now.

That the Ivy League wise guys political way has been a complete failure to the general public in so many fundamental breakdowns.

This country's society has been badly hurt by them (the Ivy League wise guys) and I am not about to forgive and forget, not for one minute...How they have been acting so condescending to you when you simply wanted to be left alone to live out your normal way of life here in America, no, I will not forget.

Those people were crooks that Donald Trump is firing, and we the people know it. And I hope President Trump goes after each and every one of them. Because he has to now it is either them or us.

Let them squark, and keep hollering at the moon, and let them say that Presiden Trump is the misfits of all misfits. Because Trump must get rid of the Washington DC swamp creatures for us the normal American people.

Because we have seen the fail-safe corruption that the Ivy League wise guys build against the normal American people trying to take back control of the leavers of power in this U. S. Government. And we do not want to go back there again.

The Ivy League wise guys were crooks and they have been crooks for the past 40 years.

WHat the frick are you even saying? You have periods where there should probably be commas, and this rambling mess is basically incoherent.
