The ultimate goal of the ALEC agenda is to turn American education into a giant glorified trade school, one that churns out corporate worker bees and low skill drones. They don't believe companies should bother training employees...they want your tax dollars to do that.

Judging by the last election, they aren't that blue.

Then we're on the same page as I've never done that either. I've reported racist posts but can take the heat. You need to drop the anger however. Playing off people's frustrations is how Hitler came to power. Stop getting ticked off at today's school kids too. They aren't indoctrinated like you think they are. If anything, that would be your generation with the required school prayer.

Sounds like you didn't really pay attention to the last election then.

How do you think we pay for charter schools? Moreover, who do you think actually has the interest in Charter Schools? The millionaires it produces on our tax dollars?

Teachers are commies...


Nothing is worst for americans than to be taught that they must not let anyone to exploit them. That way teachers erode the colums of prosperity of the elite which owns the nation.

I don't care for charter schools TBH. There is still public dollars involved.

It's a slight improvement, but I'd rather no public money be used for education at the federal level, and ideally states wouldn't get involved in education either, but if they wish to it's their right per the 10th Amendment.

Because the NEA and the Democratic Party are one and the same.
