Can Liberty Be Salvaged in America? Give NOPE a Chance.
THE PROBLEM AT ITS CORE
“If we continue to send our children to Caesar for their education, we need to stop being surprised when they come home as Romans.” – Voddie Baucham
The problem with America is not Barack Obama or the Socialist-Democrats or even the fawning and complicit lap-dog press. The problem with America is that we have raised two generations of sheeple who cannot think critically and therefore are suited only to be ruled and not governed. No previous generation of Americans would put up with our current political leadership, press corps or cesspool culture. Barack Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi would be laughed off the world stage – Bill Maher would be sleeping under a bridge, talking back to the voices in his head. Mayor Bloomberg would get a Bronx cheer every time he reached for our Big Gulp, formula or light bulbs. But how do we get out from under?
THE ODDS AGAINST US
How does one hold out hope for victory when the enemy controls elementary education, higher education, the press, Hollywood, a majority of the courts, the ruling class bureaucracy and more than it’s share of political power? The only way out is to pull the rug out from under them and break the chain of dependence on the ground floor. Take back our schools.
Crying in PTA meetings, hoping for a Ron Paul/Rick Perry end to the Department of Education, even running for school board positions is simply not sweeping enough to break the status quo. We have to get to the point where schools must compete for the dollars that follow our children. We have to crush the NEA like a piñata and free our children from the chains of the state. We must open education to competition and end Big Indoctrination’s monopoly.
Fundamentally they are “our” schools – we paid for them and continue to pay for them and yet sit idly by while scoundrels who despise our heritage, undermine our values and are indifferent to our concerns, hold the purse and abuse our children.
TO CROUCH OR TO VOUCH, THAT IS THE QUESTION
It’s time we stopped crouching to the enemy. We need not kiss the ring of those that hate capitalism, virtue and all that is sacred. I know vouchers aren’t a perfect solution but they are a perfect first step. You know how you can tell? – Because the left reacts to vouchers like Nosferatu to a garlic crucifix. It’s time to make Pharaoh pay for his obtuse indifference to our cries.
“Let my people go” is always the pre-requisite to “come up to the mountain and worship” and unless we peel back the grimy fingers of Marxist union propaganda and break the stranglehold that the statists have on our children, there is no hope.
When it comes to the status quo in education: It’s time to just say NOPE!
