KatyInIndy just reported on twitter “U.S. Congressman Jerry McNerney (D - CA) states top marginal tax rate should be 90%! (NOT A TYPO !)” How did Jerry get to be so stupid? He probably became so stupid in school.
On the statist indoctrination of U.S. Schools, including those that educated a progressives like Jerry McNerney, Mark Levin discusses tenure and its affect on the education of students in his new book, Liberty and Tyrrany. Profs with tenure turn our children into statists or progressives. The current miseducation of American students described in Mark Levin's book.
Along with running for school board or other political office, becoming a teacher and being politically active, one solution to the problem is for parents to teach the truth to our children at home. Every day or at least once a week sit down with your kids and teach them what is true and about the importance of values and principles.
A couple years ago I learned about a 4th of July Seder where we teach our kids the real story of the birth of our nation; that our constitution is divinely inspired; our rights are God given and the gov should protect those rights. We need to show our kids that people who rely on the government are NOT empowered, develop skills and gain knowledge like free people who have to solve their own problems. In other words, those who rely on the government leave life as stupid as when they came in and those who are free to participate in solving problems advance in knowledge.
We can teach truth to our kids as we read and discuss the book, "The 5000 Year Leap," to our children.
I also believe that people of faith should use fasting and prayer as Isaiah stated, "to break the bonds of wickedness and allow the oppressed to go free." Skip two meals (not more than once every couple weeks) and spend the time in prayer. We could pray for (some ideas, yours will probably be better) 1. that we know and do God's will, 2. give God's truth to those who are deceived and 3. bring those who work to destroy our freedom to repent. After the fast give the money you would have spent on the meals to the poor, to a food pantry or your church to feed the needy. If we "deal our bread to the hungry," when we call on God, He will answer. I know fasting and prayer works and have found this a very effective tool in my life and I think it is our best weapon in this fight for our freedom. I think we need to be people of virtue governed by values and principles or we will not regain our freedom.
