An important question this article ignores, is why private school vouchers are chosen over public schools?

    What is insane is the left says we should be more like Sweden. When you agree and say we should do vouchers, they melt down. We spend way too much money on education with poor results. Too much ideology in public schools and not enough education. Back when my kid was in high school; they kept going on about sex , gender and how republicans are bad. The school academics were horrible. We pulled her out and put her in a private school. Her standardized testing scores sky rocketed up. Best thing we ever did.

      Who has spoken about Sweden besides you?

      My kids spend more time with me then at school and they have a solid foundation and an ability to think critically, I’m not afraid of any scary knowledge they might learn from school, friends, the internet or any other source that I wouldn’t be able to control the rest of their lives and wouldn’t want to anyways.

        The left never says we should be more like Sweden?

        Who said anything about scary knowledge? It’s the lack of focus on academics.

      They don’t teach that Republicans are bad. They figure that out for themselves using critical thinking since they’re not indoctrinated with all that “god” bs in school.

        Not that was an actual class lesson. Packed her ass up and sent her to a private school.

          No it wasn’t. Just because you took offense to historical accuracy, doesn’t mean that there was some specific lesson plan to say Republicans are bad.

            Are you still fuming that we took your slaves away and that’s makes us bad people?

              Modern Republicans and Republicans of the era are nothing alike and you know it. Republicans are trying to bring back slavery in the form of prison labor.

                They are exactly the same. Democrats still want to divide everyone into racial groups and treat them differently. They’re just upset we took their slaves.

                Prison labor has always been allowed.

                  There was a switch in ethics and values. You really think southern racists are still voting Democrat? You’ve got a lot of inward reflecting to do. Shame you managed to propagate.

                    There as never a switch in ethics or values.

                    Yes I believe racist still vote democrat. That’s why the Neo Nazis endorsed Biden. The Democrats have always been racist and are still the party of racism.
