Quote from H.L. Mencken:

"The erroneous assumption is to the effort that the aim of public education is to fill the young of the species with knowledge and awaken their intelligence .... Nothing could be further from the truth. The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians, pedagogues and other such montebanks, and that is its aim everywhere else."

If Your an American and you can read, thank good parenting or a good teacher.
If you can read in English, thank a Soldier.

Since you can read...Read the Constitution, and ask a simple question...Why the hell are we tolerating Socialism in America, a.k.a. (change we can believe in).
