The above edit is what you mean. 

 

I would like teachers to teach my child how to think, not what to think. 

 

I like Ayn Rand too, but there's a practical side to living in a community. 

Yes, our children should be taught how to think along with a true history of the USA. I don't believe in tearing down statues and turning our founding fathers into nefarious people. Our republic is special and to lessen its status in the world is allowing the liberal teacher unions to make us comparable to the weak socialistic countries of Europe.

Strawman.

 

There are solutions which don’t include the protection of a global caste system which preys upon the common man.

 

In fact, tight knit communities are central to those solutions.

I’d love to see you teach a lesson on slavery.

I miss Ayn, she was a fun character on the talk shows

 

an Economics prof used to do a re-enactment of the dialogue of Ayn and her sex slave

There is no "true history" of the USA. The founding fathers were people. Great, and imperfect. 

 

The more you adhere to a top down True History, the more you sound like the totalitarian countries you claim to dislike.

Localism and volunteerism.

 

Local government is more responsive to the needs and wants of its citizens because it’s leaders reside in the same neighborhoods and live under similar conditions, and face direct personal consequences for corruption.

 

Roads existed before the income tax.  Fire and police departments existed before the income tax.  The military existed before the income tax.

 

People will pay for things they find value in without the threat of being locked in cages by men with guns.

 

Rule of thumb:

 

This is a total pipe dream in 2019.

 

Social services would be completely gutted to the point where they'd be useless.

Most Scandinavian Countries. Maybe a few other European countries. 

 

As for why, that's an extremely complicated answer. The US is unique in a variety of reasons (guns, healthcare, military spending, etc). Many staples of the US identity aren't found in most parts of the developed world. 

 

Horseshit. You're just proving you don't understand how those countries work if you don't think they're run by "elites".

Really?  No one's going to point out that people complaining about Trump's being a monarch are extolling the virtues of Scandinavian monarchies?

Ah, now I remember why I got away from discussing anything with you. You twist what other people say and misrepresent their arguments. Yes, our founding fathers were imperfect people but tearing them down is nothing but an attempt to belittle our constitution.

Correct. That's his whole schtick through multiple alts. He's a clown. Nothing more.

As they should be.

 

There are a very small amount of people who are unable to work and provide for themselves.

 

The overwhelming majority of individuals on public assistance are there because they choose not to be productive, and have made a series of very poor decisions because the system in place has enabled them to do so.

 

With the removal of the welfare state private charities are more than able to service the needs of those who would remain behind.

 

The system, as it exists, manufactures intergenerational poverty by creating a culture of normalized dependence.  This is an extreme cruelty, and it is purposeful, as this reality:  soft slavery under the guise of “help”, is a necessary part of the elite’s ploy to keep common man subjugated under their yoke.

You probably don't need a lesson on punctuation or spelling. If you weren't so careless and lacking of pride in your work you wouldn't be always ***** up. Use spellcheck and take a peek of your work before posting. Don't be a dumbshit.

It’s the no pride in my work here thing. 

 

You mean “a peek at your work”?
