Yes indeed. Also the monopoly on textbooks which are filled with politically correct crap that bears little resemblence to truth, and a system of people running it that have "phds" which mean nothing with no real world experience. I would like to see school districts run by retired people who actually worked for a living and know what you need to know to survive and flourish, as well as what is BS and what is not.

You know...they are wrong about the demographics. Most are educated; but even though some may have not been formally; they were certainly smarter, had a sense of real history and reality that could never be taught in today's marxist de-education system.

The main problem with today's system, aside from teaching bull crap, is the lack of providing material that the students could integrate instead of compartmentalize useful;, information and metaphoric material which would provide a connection to their minds.
As we simply say here..."critical thinking".

Gowdy is great!
As for RINO Ryan, I lost total respect for him after President Potatohead sent his GOP Charirman Waterboy that "Thank you for making government work" phone call, message or however that communication happened.

Thank you. I have had no respect for any of the elite of either party, they all pander and manipulate. One reason I like Trey Gowdy, he is straight forward and honest to a T.

How could Ryan be more clueless? He makes Mr Potatohead seem like Einstein.
He should have listened when he was told, "It's better to be silent and have people wonder if you are stupid than to speak and remove all doubt."
