Was it Voltaire, who grabbed the baby out of the mother’s arms and said, “Tell me everything you know?”
I’ve been trying to figure out why there is so little interest in understanding Freedom, and knowing about the history of this Nation. Why there is so little objection to the tax-supported school system. Why young children have no idea where a tomato comes from. Why they know who lives in a pineapple house in the ocean, but do not know who lives in the White House. Why a ten year old, knows how to kick a soccer or football, but has no idea how to plant and grow a seed. Why my 20-year old nephew in college called home to find out how to put a quarter in a washing machine.

THIRD IN SERIES ABOUT TAX-SUPPORTED SCHOOLS
We must now come face to face with the reality of that to which millions of young children are being subjected in the current school system. Namely, the system itself is socialistic, an immoral system, and no amount of money nor well-educated teachers, improved text-books, concerned parents, beautiful buildings, great school lunches, improved test scores, or anything else is going to change that fact. The culprit is the system, no one can change for the better, so long as it remains a system of Socialism.

This is the third in a series of articles I’m currently writing about the school controversy. Months back I have written bits and pieces about the tax-supported school situation and my history battling them.
Because this past week’s news cycle brings attention to a lot of objection over Obama’s upcoming speech next week, it seemed the time is apropos for telling more about my personal story and the battles I fought with the system.
My disenchantment with the so-called “public education” actually began back in early sixties. Because I actually had two sets of children subjected to the compulsory attendance laws, and the subsequent abuse, I’m going to relate events with my last child. After removing my older children and home-schooling.

Recently we are hearing more and more from small isolated groups, opposing the direction we are headed in this country. A direction not geared towards individual freedom and private ownership of property. But one diametrically opposed to it. A direction already clothed in many tenets of Socialism.
It’s a noble premise and action to take a stand against the onslaught of Socialism. One of the latest moves is for States Rights regarding gun ownership. Thousands have assumed the responsibility of educating their children via homeschooling. In the recent, “Tea Party” protest, thousands gathered with various agendas of protest.
