Did you ask
your elected officials to vote for LD 1422 (Standards-Based Education), a
restructured education system which will change your children's education from
academics (upward mobility) to the Soviet lifelong work force training system in
which the government schools in partnership with the private corporations will
decide at an early age what your child's future occupation will be? This is
known in economic circles as a planned economy. History has proved that planned
economies do not work. At least for the general population. This system is used
in socialist countries (Cuba, for instance, where students are taken to cigar
factory for part of the day to do apprentice work). The system is not intended
to provide a classical, academic education; on the contrary, its purpose is to
produce docile, obedient robotic workers to spin off profits for the
corporatist/socialist global economy.
