Do you REALLY want to throw away a "tool" WE can use to slap the states and local governments back into line with? With a President  like Trump and a conservative congress,which is a real possibility,we can stop the alternative history being taught in public schools in places like Ca,Oregon,Mn,etc,etc,etc.

And,like it or not,we MUST have federal controls over school curricula in order to insure that "Liberation Theology" and similar brain farts aren't being taught as fact or positive things in any public school,anywhere in the nation.

Don't throw out the baby with the bathwater.
@sneakypete in a perfect world you would be completely correct. Sadly right now the libs are incharge of the asylum and hold the purse strings. Until that changes the best we can do is maintain the status quo and that results in generation after generation being lost.

As someone famous once said,"Be careful what you ask for,lest you get it."

Full speed ahead and damn the torpedoes!
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."
- J. R. R. Tolkien

@verga

That is exactly what the Founding Fathers set out to create. Or more accurately,a world as close to perfect as mere men could make it.

Which is PRECISELY why we need too take over control of Congress,so WE,or people very much like us,are in change instead of the traitors and the fools.

I would bet money you didn't mean it that way,but that sure does sound close to "Since we can't do anything about it,we might as well lay back and enjoy it."

THAT,IMNSHO,is the mindset we need to get rid of.

  • I was a "conspiracy theorist". Now I'm just right.

Tough crowd. It is an age where children know everything, though most of what they know is untrue.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Truly,has there ever been a age when that wasn't true?

As a great grandparent, observing three generations (plus my personal experiences in that transition), one of the chief afflictions of puberty is the impression of omniscience. For anyone in those hormonal throes, the parents tend to be remarkably ignorant, only acquiring intelligence as the child approached their 30s, if then.

But then, we were purt'near all bulletproof know-it-alls at one time...it's a rite of passage for the survivors.
