Freedom has several indispensable ingredients. You cannot truly be free unless you have the freedom to speak, the freedom to worship and the freedom to participate in the election of your leaders. Another essential aspect to freedom --- property rights. You cannot be free if you are denied the fruits of your labors. You cannot be free if your property is subject to government confiscation on a whim.
In about one week you, along with tens of millions of your fellow Americans, will take the most precious thing in your life, your child, and you will turn that child over to the Imperial Federal Government of the United States to be educated. Well, “educated” may be the word you use. “Indoctrinated” would be more accurate.
In many – and the number is growing every year – of these schools the very first lesson your child is going to learn on the very first day is that they have no property rights.
Here’s the scenario:
In the weeks before school you and your rug rat have been roaming the halls of your local discount store. That list in your hand is the list of school supplies your child is supposed to have on that magical first day of school. You can remember these days, can’t you? You can remember going shopping with your Mom – and coming home with your pencils, erasers, glue, paste, construction paper, notebooks, protractors --- the works.
When you got home from the store you set all of the supplies out on your bed or the dining room table. You would arrange them, sort them, rearrange them, pack them in your book bag, unpack them, arrange them again, and pack them again. They were YOUR school supplies. You and your Mommy went out and bought them and they are YOURS.
So, along comes the first day of school. You packed your supplies for the last time and headed off to be educated.
That was then – this is now. Now everything is pretty much the same right up until the time the bell rings. Your child shopped with you the same way you did with your mom. After the bell rings, though, everything changes.
In many schools --- I know, not all --- but in a growing number of schools the government agent we call a “teacher” will announce to every child in the class that they are to march to the front of the room and place all of their supplies; their rulers, pencils, crayons, notebooks …. ALL of their supplies in a big box. The teacher will announce that these supplies now belong to ALL of the students and will be made available to all students as needs arise. Your child will be told that there are some students in the class who’s parents couldn’t afford all of the items on the list, and this just isn’t fair. To make things fair we’ll all just share.
In one stroke – one edict from the NEA agent at the front of the class – the concept of property rights is trashed --- gone. When your child left home that morning those supplies were his or her private property. By the end of the first class the concept of private property was set aside --- private property becomes community property – all in the interest of “fairness.”
The leftists who set the policies for our government indoctrination centers know what you may not. These children are at a developmental age when ideas to which they are exposed can easily become a part of firmly held dogma. If their teacher – their authority figure – tells them that there is something wrong with them having personal property that someone else might not have, it is taken to heart. Without strong counter-programming from some other authority figure – the parent, for instance – this prejudice against the idea of private property, and the desire for an egalitarian society, becomes part of that child’s makeup.
Another little government myrmidon in training.
This will happen in just the first day of your child’s leftist indoctrination. Rest comfortably, though. Maybe someday you’ll be able to sport one of those “My Child is an Honor Student at the Myrmidon Elementary School.” How proud you must be.
