"You are not that far off of the progressive plan to institutionalize all children and replace all families."
You don't know what you are talking about.
My proposal is to ONLY remove children from parents who cannot or will not support them. And to reallocate the Welfare budget to that purpose.
You know, like the way things were 100 years ago.
Sound progressive to you? If so it's because you have a comprehension problem.

The school environment is a highly regimented and regulated space run by iron fisted dictactors. If we “can keep them there longer,” say full time, then we might as well just name them prisons.
That is the actual dream of tyrants such as this education secratary, he simply wants to rule over those lesser than he!

The cost to keep a child in a typical inner city government school, if given to the parent(s) in the form of a voucher, is likely enough to send a child to a **private** boarding schooling. I have read that in Washington, D.C. the cost of government K-12 is now nearly $30,000 a year.
There are **private** summer camps across the nation that, with a few upgrades, could easily become full-time **private** boarding schools for $30,000/year/kid.

It isn’t because the child is still on the streets and still in a typical inner city school.

Actually,....I think private boarding schools are a good idea if funded with tax credits.
And....It is enormously expensive now for a child in an inner city to attend a typical dangerous government schools. It is nearly $30,000/year/child.
There are **private** summer camps all over this nation that, with a few upgrades, could easily become **privately** owned and run boarding schools. And...They are already very experienced in handling children.

It is the goal of leftists to abolish “parents” and “families” which deep down, they think are the root of all evil.
Of course, if you spoke to most of them, they love their own family and themselves as parents, but...not a concept for the little folk.

But don’t you see? The progressive plan is the same—except to declare all families incapable of adequately raising their children.
To: Olog-hai
Lordy, could they make things any worse than they have already with all their “help.” Pray for America.
To: Olog-hai
Duncan wants young boys available to serve his perverted appetites.
