It is the fault of the ones who hold power in this country who want to destroy what's left of our educational systems, so no one who doesn't have power will learn to think on their own. It is our fault for listening to those who say we shouldn't pay for education with our tax money. Look what happened in Wisconsin, and he way Scott Walker systematically destroyed education in tha state from kindergarten all the way through the college ranks. Imagine if he had been chosen as th Republican candidate for the White House.

@cherokeepatti - wow! I mean like, WOW! That's the craziness we are dealing with in this country. And we are letting these things happen!

Because they haven't been taught critical thinking skills and it stresses their minds to have to think about things other than what they want to believe.....a sign of the times in the USA....

It is the 1 percenters who have done this country such an injustice. They got their power by destroying the middle class. And they will keep that power until people figure out that they have given it away

IamDave: the ones in charge of this mess are slicker than greased snot...they do it for the "good" of the children, after all society has it's problems and children need their "help"....no one had thought that maybe, just maybe, the ones in charge of this mess also had something to do with the problems of society...

they want safe spaces because they cant handle the truth. btw all of the choices i'd vote for.

IamDave: The 1 percenters have their children in private schools.

IamDave: When I was a senior in high school I worked in an elementary school office...that was 1974 and they were preparing to start teaching a new subject that had nothing to do with the 4 R's in the fall....the teachers were confused as to why they were teaching this junk instead of sticking to academics....it was a program underwritten by the Masonic Foundation, and it teaches lifeboat ethics and a bunch of other crap....a couple generations now that have been taught this garbage.
