Ever since Ronald Reagan (and now modeled by Reagan's doppelganging actor POTUS, currently serving) we've had conservatives and faux conservatives tell us they will eliminate the Department of Education. I am old enough to have met Reagan, and actually played the piano for him when our school choir sang for him in Dublin, NH back in 1975. He practically won The White House based on his "build the wall"-style chanting of his promise to eliminate the D.O.E.
What really happened was that he signed several education/pedagogical agreements with the Soviets promising to take our education system away from the classical liberal arts model and toward a Pavolvian workforce training model common in the Soviet Union; and, he tripled the size of the federal government, INCLUDING the Department of Education. You see, Reagan was the first true Trojan Horse President. A life long DEMONRAT with a long acting resume, he was easily able to convince the people of the 1980s that he had suddenly flipped into a great conservative and conservative Christian, despite being "handled" by an occultic wife and never breaking ties with his card carrying Communist friends in Hollywood and D.C. (and their fellow travelers.)
We know much of this because a wonderful patriot from Maine who Reagan had hired into the D.O.E. saw the papers, and leaked them. Charlotte Iserbyt was subsequently fired and has gone on to become the nation's foremost authority on the "Deliberate Dumbing Down of American Education." Her book of that name is a free download at deliberatedumbingdown.com. Go print it off!
Now, we are learning that Trump's plan to "eliminate the Department of Education" is really all about merging it with (surprise, surprise) THE DEPARTMENT OF LABOR. Why the D.O.L.? Because, we are in a fascist regime and have been since Reagan. America MUST support the needs of the corporatocracy and this can only be done by making all educational pedagogy subsumed to the needs of "labor"...i.e. the corporations. What do we need musicians, artists, poets, philosophers, writers for? We have enough of those already. We don't need thoughtful citizens. We need USEFUL SUBJECTS.
As always, we are using the diametrically opposed language of "choice" and freedom of expression to totally END those concepts and to emphasize only workforce training from at least the 6th grade on.
Here is an article that if you do not take the time to read, you will NOT have taken the red pill that really matters when it comes to understanding why we have a corporate McSchool-pushing crony billionaire leading the D.O.E. and why we are about to merge the D.O.E. with the D.O.L.:
Here is a key excerpt from the above which delineates the major planks of the current GLOBALIST reform agenda as practiced by those who are close to ending America's previously fine public education system:
"(1) tax-funded school choice/charters with unelected boards required for implementation of Soviet workforce training, which represents not only denial of freedom to choose one’s vocation (future), but end of our representative form of government through end of voting;
(2) role of behavioral psychologist B.F. Skinner in lifelong education and training (known as community re-education) mainly due to corporate need for creation of the “perfect worker” aka New Soviet Man;
(3) Community Oriented Policing System (modeled on East German STASI) which will place the police, now being trained in Israel, to run and control our towns and cities through communist Total Quality Management techniques. The late B.F. Skinner would have loved the COPS program since it uses the Skinnerian method of rewarding citizens who do good deeds, good deeds determined by the unelected police. COPS is a result of public/private partnership carved in stone during President Reagan’s White House Private Sector Initiative
(4) White House proposal to merge Depts. of Labor and Education into one agency as centerpiece of federal government overhaul, as mentioned at the beginning of this piece. “The plan to consolidate the Labor and Education departments, which first surfaced in Education Week and was later confirmed by other news outlets, would allow the Trump administration to focus its efforts to train students in vocational skills in one place.”
The upcoming "Red Pill Conference" will have some fantastic speakers, most of whom I personally interviewed for my Aroostook Watchmen Radio Show (WXME-AM 780) in Maine several years ago, but there is currently no intention of bringing up these incredibly important items. Without an understanding of the Community Oriented Policing System ("COPS") agenda and the real fascistic agenda behind "school choice" and "charter schools" the attendees will have a very incomplete picture of what is wrong with America and how to fix it. You see, once charter schools (with no locally taxpayer-elected school boards, but only selected parent advisory boards--but still mandatory really estate taxation) wipe out the public school system (The "choice") and all private and religious schools (including home schoolers) are required to take government vouchers and use government-approved curricula, there will be NO CHOICE in education at all. Do you see how Orwellian our "dear leaders" are in their use of language??
The COPS program is right out of Orwell's surveillance society in "1984" and as creepy and Nazified as it can be. (The Nazis WERE fascists after all...remember?)
Please do take the REAL RED PILL and educate yourself on what is really behind this merger, and call your Representative and forward them the above link and EDUCATE THEM.
That's what real citizens do, by the way. They hold their "public servants" accountable.
Scary stuff.
