During his State of the Union Address, President Biden rebranded the failed Build Back Better bill as his bill that would cut inflation, grow the economy, lower costs, and lower deficits. Then he added that his plan would include universal -- free -- “Pre-K for every 3- and 4-year-old.”
This is appealing to families struggling with high daycare costs so they can work. Others wrongly believe that children need to be in formal school as early as possible. Few Americans realize that government control over the rearing and education of young children is a key communist goal for turning our nation toward totalitarianism.
To quote Vladimir Lenin, Russian revolutionary and founding head of the Soviet Union, “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.”
Not only is government pre-K an opportunity to indoctrinate children in socialism at an early age but there are long-term negative outcomes that imperil our nation.
For years Democrats have been trying to get a universal pre-K program funded. Now proponents are in a tailspin over the recent study by Vanderbilt University researchers on the Tennessee statewide voluntary pre-K program for low-income students.
The Tennessee researchers found that children who did not attend the program fared better down the road academically and behaviorally. By the end of sixth grade, when compared with children who had not attended the program, children in the study were more likely to be referred to special education services, more likely to have discipline issues, and graduates of the state program performed worse on state academic tests.

A way to destroy individualism and to make every person just a tooth in the gears of a society with the government turning the crank.
On a more immediate and practical level, this adds millions of unionized teachers to the tax rolls - and their dues transform taxpayer dollars into donations to Dem candidates.
The two look SICKENED by what they’re seeing, while the ‘woke’ parents look like it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread.
They want their mitts on kids, in more ways than one. Their parents at this point are also well indoctrinated, so this will be easy for them.
Glad I’ve lived the majority of my years on this planet. Glad my own daughter would rather homeschool or send her kids to local religious kindergartens. I do fear for my grandsons once they enter the government indoctrination centers.
“government pre-K an opportunity to indoctrinate children in socialism at an early age “
Like we didn’t know this 30 years ago?
I heard a statistic on the radio this morning that 40% of public school elementary kids believe they are “transgendered”.
How soon will we hear this Admin recruiting child sex workers?
Of course. It fits right in with their “magical thinking” stage of development.
The real reason?
How about: Indoctrination is not cheap and comes with a real price tag? /s
A study, decades ago, found that the earlier children attend schooling, the greater the suicide rate in later years.
Interesting “late empire” warnings there; thanks for sharing!
