    This is a good reason to raise a wall of separation between big education and big government.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    We have created a government-fed education system where there are no penalties and are accolades and other rewards. Separate education from government and ugly people will disappear from education.

    White marble was the most plentiful stone at the time and the easiest to work with.
    They then either painted it or plated it with gold............paint doesn't last as long as stone

    Look on the bright side. If you raise your children responsibly, they will have no competition for good jobs.

    Something tells me she's not an engineering professor.
    Power always thinks it has a great soul, and vast views, beyond the comprehension of the weak. And that it is doing God service when it is violating all His laws.
