He decried "corporatism" claiming that public schools "are ripe for exploitation via dubious 'educational materials'" adding that it was not environmental groups that were intent on creating "ecowarriors", but rather it was "the business world that was "eager to turn our children into the ultimate consumers."

It's impossible for consumption to outpace production. In the short term yes, but certainly not in the long term. For it's a contradiction to say that something can be consumed when that something hasn't been first produced or created. When we inspect government we see that it consumes massive amounts which makes it a parasite on those that do create products and services. How irrational and dishonest does one have to be to imply that ultimate consumers would not first be producers/creators in order to earn the money required to consume? ...Not to mention that their work also injects products and services into the market for consumers. How irrational and dishonest? Ask John F. Borowski, a marine and environmental science teacher.

millions of America's school children will return to their classrooms where their textbooks are teaching an utterly polluted stream of environmental and other science misinformation. Like so many issues involving our debased educational system, this is not evoking much public outcry. It should.

It's not going to, because most parents have abdicated their parenting to the school. There are few that really care. They wouldn't dare rock the boat for fear someone might make them take their kid home.

"When John F. Borowski, a marine and environmental science teacher..."

Guys, A leader among those teaching YOUR kids and the future generations of political leaders. And, Teachers and unions alike are deafening in their silence to his lies. And EVEN deafening in their support of said lies. Peace and love, George.
