Public schools stopped teaching civics (our government at the federal and state level) over 50 years ago. The real history of America has been omitted and replaced with Marxist/Socialist lies and propaganda two generations ago. The deliberate dumbing down of our children is a complete success. This all can be turned around only by waking up good parents and demanding a complete overhaul of the system and total control of the local school board.

I'm in my mid 50's and I can still remember my father talking about the dumbing down of America before I was a teenager. As far as waking up good parents. Good luck with that. A group of folks here went up against the local school board and as luck would have it, some of the teachers started asking students with last names the same as members of the group if they were any relation to us. It certainly dampened the ire of a lot of the good parents. Some of us without kids in the district were targeted for reassessment of our properties. Until you get the unions out of the schools, it's a losing battle.

Wut? (I kid, I kid...) Agree on the unions 100%. Homeschool if you can. 2 hours a day. It's worth it.
