So, we just tell it like we think it is, and leave it up to reality to decide whether we are right or wrong. The Libertarian Party is the party with the innovative solutions to solve America's most pressing problems. Real solutions based on principles to make our streets safer and our liberties more secure. Libertarians believe that, by letting the government take over our responsibility to educate our children, we have created a country where people are taught what to think rather than how to think. Everyday, students are being brainwashed into being model citizens for the state, while reading and writing and arithmetic take a back row seat.
Ignorance is the worst form of slavery and ignorant is what America's fast becoming.
At the very least, government education was supposed to teach our children how to read, yet the literacy rate today is lower than what it was 150 years ago before government schooling began. The aim of good education is to teach people how to think, not what to think. No wonder so many Americans fail to recognize the chains of their own bondage. If a slave doesn't know he's a slave, mistakenly thinking he's a freeman, then government certainly isn't going to tell him any different. Libertarians believe that government has no proper role to play in education.
