BEIJING -- Chinese President Xi Jinping has called for fostering socialist values among children while sending greetings ahead of Saturday's International Children's Day.

"All sectors of society should work together to nurture the seeds of socialist values in their heart so that the values can take root and germinate," he said at the meeting.

Families, schools, children's associations and the whole society should all take responsibility for promoting socialist values among children, according to Xi.

The Chinese Young Pioneers, the country's largest children's organization, should unite and educate children through organizing healthy activities.

And anyhow, this is what the grand Chinese culture has been about for millennia. Whether it was with an old style emperor or a new style president, the things that mattered were tied to a socialist point of view. China is being China. America shouldn’t be acting as though it had been gobsmacked upon hearing this.

What might eventually change the picture in China would be Christian faith.

The revolutionary youth must report to the new collective farms. Kulaks who insist on their own farms will be arrested!

Of course the plants on your collective farms will not be as healthy as these. These get the benefit of an excess of manure at the White House.

Sounds a lot like "Common Core" and "It takes a village" doesn't it?
