Interesting maybe-sleight-of-hand: Vogue article took great pains to mention that people masked before Pelosi entered the room to officiate ceremony, but HELLO people, fucking wedding receptions are where the carousing happens, and yep here she is maskless

Suburban mom voter here. I want my kids to take the masks off at school now. These people clearly aren't that worried.

They have not been effective in stopping the spread since Fauci said as much in the early days of this shit. The majority now trusts this guy. He then flip flops, "PPE" bull shit, that's why we couldn't recommend masks. So the public should just die? Fauci has failed every step during this "pandemic" and people are too dumb to recognize it. Or you're called a conspiracy theorist because a guy lied, told you one thing and then do another and follow the science. Yeah.... that's normal.

I'm not saying you don't care about other people's kids but, saving our own doesn't do much to end this bullshit. This time, we really are all in this fight together. It's the only way we can win imo.

Culture Matters.

It's definitely good to take kids out of Public School, but "Transforming Public Schools" (imitating the Left's Weasel Wording) should be a top priority.

Student Vouchers for Parents, not automatic money for Teacher's Unions and EduAdmin.

I took money away from a broken system that seeks to brainwash and enslave my children. And I'm just a Joe Nobody, don't have the power to legislate public schools away(the only acceptable answer). I'm sure you have grand ideas, but reality is, most of us will ever only influence ourselves, our families, and maybe our neighborhoods. At least apart from praying. Understanding our sphere of influence is key to avoiding frustration, and living to our full potential.

And seriously, you guys don't really believe the government propaganda system was ever meant to educate right? Read about the Prussian model, then look at all the BS going on. And probably most importantly, compare a public school kid to a home school kid. If the point is education, and getting ahead in life, home school kids blow public school kids out of the water, every single time. Better educated, critical thinkers, graduate younger, better paid, and learn patience and listening, two social skills nearly dead in today's society.

You guys want to make the world better, home school your kids.

Most of the world's most profound discoveries happened in between 1700-1930.

The curriculum? Latin and Greek. All the Classics. Lincoln's Gettysburg Address sounds like Thucydides because in his Log Fucking Cabin, that was what he read as a kid.

Not Heather Has Two Mommies, or Houghton-Mifflin AP English Reader, 52nd Edition, $350 per license.

Einstein? Humphry Davys? Lavoisier? Greek and Latin and the Classics, even Davys who was the poor son of a woodcutter. Tesla's father was a relatively impoverished Orthodox Priest who made him memorize Epic Poetry and Church Council arguments and learn German to boot.

Why do the Classics fire the quest for knowledge and deep thinking? Because the Ancients were interested in these questions, they wondered about the motives of human beings and the forces active in the world. They acknowledged the arguments of their opponents and enjoyed playing with ideas and perspectives. Theology as well gets mighty tangled. A REAL Liberal Education.

Basic Literacy, Numeracy, and being whacked over the head with the latest societal fads about tranny rights is anemic compared to reading a few of the Great Books and exploring them deeply.

That's why the Classics aren't taught - just the basic, technical stuff, to paraphrase Carlin, to create workers. Just smart enough to run calculations and monitor the gauges. Maybe a few gifted ones to design the gauges.

Real Classical Education - still found at Eton and Philips Exeter still follow that path for the most part. That's for the Elite.

Meaning public schools, yes. But that was always the logical outcome. It's time to get back to private voluntary education that is run by the community.

As to the classics, it sounds like a more holistic approach, which is the way the world really works. This approach is also heavily advocated by Mises.

But Einstein, home schooled.

I'm at the point in Walden where Thoreau is praising the classics.

Men sometimes speak as if the study of the classics would at length make way for more modern and practical studies; but the adventurous student will always study classics, in whatever language they may be written and however ancient they may be. For what are the classics but the noblest recorded thoughts of man? They are the only oracles which are not decayed, and there are such answers to the most modern inquiry in them as Delphi and Dodona never gave. We might as well omit to study Nature because she is old. To read well, that is, to read true books in a true spirit, is a noble exercise, and one that will task the reader more than any exercise which the customs of the day esteem. ...

No wonder that Alexander carried the Iliad with him on his expeditions in a precious casket. A written word is the choicest of relics. It is something at once more intimate with us and more universal than any other work of art. It is the work of art nearest to life itself. It may be translated into every language, and not only be read but actually breathed from all human lips;—not be represented on canvas or in marble only, but be carved out of the breath of life itself. The symbol of an ancient man’s thought becomes a modern man’s speech. Two thousand summers have imparted to the monuments of Grecian literature, as to her marbles, only a maturer golden and autumnal tint, for they have carried their own serene and celestial atmosphere into all lands to protect them against the corrosion of time.

At least Marin County is somewhat sane.

https://www.marincounty.org/main/county-press-releases/press-releases/2021/hhs-covid-facecoverings-102921

San Rafael, CA – Marin County Public Health will lift a local mask mandate, which required everyone to wear face coverings in indoor public places, effective at noon Monday, November 1.

The mandate was put in place August 2 as part of a Bay Area-wide public health response to the surge in cases related to the Delta variant.

The sad fact is that your money was still being sent to the corrupt public school,if you are a Californian. Look up what Newsom did with charter school enrollees who left the public schools.

Why is it in black and white?

Also, video or it didn't happen. We know that Pelosi is a fucking hypocrite, but there's a constant stream of false information to try to trip people up.

Looks like Nancy Pelosi ran out of room for her expensive ice cream in the high-end freezers of her San Francisco palace – or else wants to get the heck outta Cali before it's too late.

Actually, buying a house in Florida looks like she is planning to retire to a tax haven state. Maybe she will not be running for re-election.

Schools are paid for every child who attends, I'm pretty you're already aware of that. It's part of why attendance is such a big deal.

You think a public school will stay open if all the kids have transferred out to private or home school? Not to mention the more important aspect of not having to worry about my kids being taught inappropriate material, or being tricked into taking a shot without my consent.

We ARE all in this together. We have a moral obligation to stop sending our kids to corrupt institutions. Anything less than taking them out is a gamble. And I don't gamble with my kids.

I agree with 99% of what you're saying/doing. What I disagree with is thinking you're taking tax money away from the taxman. Even if they did close all of the schools, do you think you will pay lower taxes (maybe I'm misunderstanding you)? Good for you for taking your kids out of public schools. Seriously.

I second this. I think a MAIN reason public institutions suck, is they don't want people using them. Then they will run a shell of the institution, and somebody is stealing all the tax money used to pay for it.

Try to get the budget of your local school. Find out how the money is spent. I bet you can't do it. Now why do you think the government's books and accounting is so non-transparent?

Every charity should post inflows and expenditures of that charity. That way you can quickly evaluate to see if it's worth supporting. Notice very few charities do that. Why do you think that is? Most charities are a blatant scam - just as are most government services.
