Sent to me by a Dutch friend who while once visiting the US was asked by one of our well educated citizens how long it took them to drive from Europe to the US. Truth is always stranger than fiction.

The US is a federal republic. The federal government has limited enumerated powers. Defense is listed; education is not.

The states are responsible for that.

You can thank the Department of Education (Indoctrination) for that.

The indoctrination you speak of actually began by corporate leaders such as Carnige and Rockefeller cojoined by politicians in the late Victorian Era by implementing the Prussian model of education into this land. The goal was the same as Prussia's and that was to "train" like Pavlov's dogs obedient workers by bells, time frames, meaningless busywork, bureaucracy, long lists of rules much like a prison. Train obedient workers for the industrial era and obedient soldiers for the army. Then the ruling class can manipulate the masses so much easier when they've been brainwashed like functional zombies. Prussia had that all figured out and the barons of industry back then liked what they seen and so did the politicians.

Ruby, you're rather truthy in your narrative. Carnegie and Rockefeller contributed funding while the NEA pushed public education, and it was Horace Mann in a government position that pushed the Prussian model.

Indoctrination is the word that should be used for what passes as education in this country these days. The purpose of education is to bring the pupil out of the darkness of ignorance into the light of knowledge and understanding. In this mission, the U.S. Department of Education as well as the Departments of Education in the several states as well as the many municipalities have failed in this endeavor. I think it is by design but what do I know?

Not last but a lot further down the list that we should. But it is by design, it is a lot easier to control idiots. Look at how the government played you for nearly your entire life.

Turn it back over to the states and end the DOE. it is a waste of time and money, and has never imporved the learning or educational system

Those of us not mentally apt enough just sit back and wait for the experts to inevitably correct us. You never fail.

You're welcome. But I'm no expert, it doesn't take one, all it takes is a concern for facts and logic.
