Have you ever seen that slogan that the education unions like to use " If you think education is expensive, TRY IGNORANCE"? At some point I guess the liberals understand, based on this slogan, that IGNORANCE can lead to tyranny. Ignorant people, people without education or information, will vote for dictators- Hitler was elected. What is used to propagandize and control these "ignorant" people? Class warfare is ALWAYS what is used. You see,the dictator says, the reason you are poor is that someone else has taken advantage of you and we are going to set things right by TAKING what these unfair people have, and GIVING it to you!! So- vote for us!! What a deal-of course the "ignorant" will vote for you! Why do people respond to sales at the store? There is something real cheap- getting two for one- getting something for nothing. But when it comes to voting for government- what the ignorant don't understand- is the consequences of what they are voting for.
Apparently Scott Walker, the governor of Wisconsin who stood up to the teacher's union, is all in on Common Core. Seriously Scott?!! The Federal government is promising big money to states that fall in line for the National Education Standards and Scott wants the money. States are cash strapped beyond belief with all the WELFARE they are paying out - Federal grants that have gone away leaving states to pay the tab for programs for everything from advertisements to brush your teeth to urban foresters and federal curbs- along with government unions that are sucking the life out of taxpayers. So Scott wants the money. Hey Scott- have you thought about the CONSEQUENCES of what you are giving up? Dear Scott, federal control of our schools takes away LOCAL FREEDOM AND CONTROL!! Federal government control of schools is what they had in the Soviet Union, what every dictatorship has. The Feds want this control so they can Propagandize our children- from environmentalism to sex to data collection- to whatever the latest lobby wants.
Now, maybe Scott just doesn't want to believe this- the money is so enticing. Here's a nice little example for you Scott. A lawyer in Helena had his daughter accused of bullying in school because she didn't want to play with someone- she wanted to choose her own friends!! Our children are now being bullied by the schools!! They will watch them interact in all these Common Core proscribed"diverse" teams and determine if they interact "effectively" and "respectfully". This is subjective and violates the constitution in so many ways it is hard for me to count- let's start with FREEDOM OF ASSOCIATION, FREEDOM OF SPEECH, THE RIGHT TO PURSUE MY OWN HAPPINESS- and so on. Maybe I'm a private person and I'd just like to do my own work. Maybe I don't want to share my answers. Just maybe I should be graded on the quality of my WORK and WHAT I KNOW ,not someone else's opinion of whom I should associate with and what I should say and how I should say it.
IGNORANCE is definitely expensive Scott. I believe many liberals are WILLFULLY IGNORANT. They will give up their freedom and the freedom of their children based on CLASS WARFARE IDEOLOGY. They need to quit blindly following this ideology, there is no panacea. The WAR ON POVERTY- has been going on for fifty years and it has created more crime, more drug use, a breakdown in morals, corruption in the courts (many judges get their jobs not because of their abilities but because they can be relied on to do what they are told), corruption in the government, more poverty, more unwed births, government imploding with debt,- no panacea at all. These people- IGNORANT BECAUSE OF IDEOLOGY- will continue to vote to give away all our freedoms without questioning what in the world they are voting for. The next time a liberal asks you what YOUR IDEA is tell them it is the rugged individual who has integrity and pride and can take care of himself. A government that is not in debt and not corrupt because it is so huge- oh yes, and FREEDOM FROM GOVERNMENT BUREAUCRATS!! Actually, we can brush our own teeth without a government sponsored billboard telling us to do that- we even know how to feed our own children without Michelle Obama telling us what they should eat.
Yes, IGNORANCE IS DEFINITELY EXPENSIVE. OUR LIBERAL FRIENDS NEED TO DROP THE IDEOLOGY AND WAKE UP AND SMELL THE NSA ROSES- GOVERNMENT IS OUT OF CONTROL FOLKS-AND IT ISN'T DOING YOU ANY GOOD EITHER.

THE ARCHITECTS OF MODERNITY
Certain people among us who think of themselves as ha ha "progressives" - think that they and their movement are the ARCHITECTS OF MODERNITY. Actually they are not. They would like to be- and they would like to trick you into thinking that they are- but alas- THEY ARE NOT. They have a vision for sure- one that has people directed to their station in life "the poor", the "homeless", the "disabled" and so on. Conservatives don't divide people up that way- they see all people as equal and having the same opportunities.
A grandmother I know, who is raising her granddaughter, had her going to one of our "title" schools here- Federal Government delineated as "poor" school. The little girl started losing self esteem and self confidence. She moved her out of that school to a school that is not "title" and the child has voila!! self esteem again. Why is that? I think it's expectations. If you are told you are a victim and need free food all day long- you might start to think you ARE A VICTIM!!
When I was in school we were all the same. Oh, their might have been a kid whose parents could afford store bought goodies like Twinkies- but really- we were all the same. There was no dividing kids up- everybody was expected to be disciplined and to work hard if they expected to succeed. We were told America was the land of opportunity and we believed it. If your life got messed up it was because you messed it up. I graduated when I was 17 and I went to work- and college at the same time. I worked days and went to school at night. I shared an apartment with a couple of other girls. I never even considered government assistance- that was for welfare people- not me. No one took welfare- it just wasn't done. Now the people who think they are the ARCHITECTS OF MODERNITY, think there is a NEW WORLD ORDER ( same term Hitler used) that will have just about everybody on some type of welfare.
Instead of working two jobs people will just get food stamps. Instead of delaying gratification and staying off drugs people will just go to food share and label themselves "homeless". Instead of being a rugged individual who is proud and self reliant - a person will accept their status as an underachiever and lay around waiting for the next handout.
These people who think they are the ARCHITECTS of our FUTURE think project based learning will bring people out of poverty!! SERIOUSLY RANDI ? Randi Weingartner, the head of the teacher's union, was on the Megan Kelly show parroting this nonsense. Megan asked her what "project based learning" was, but when Randi said robots, she didn't probe further. Hey Randi, seriously, where's your data? Where's your research? How is this all going to happen? I'll tell you something Randi- JOBS ARE WHAT BRING PEOPLE OUT OF POVERTY!! PEOPLE WITH EXPECTATIONS OF HARD WORK, DISCIPLINE, SELF RELIANCE, FORTITUDE AND DELAYING GRATIFICATION BRING PEOPLE OUT OF POVERTY. JUST ASK ANYONE WHO HAS MADE ANY SUCCESS OUT OF THEIR LIFE- THAT IS HOW IT IS DONE!! Government programs and doing drugs in Denver just isn't going to get you there. But do these over stuffed government types who think they are the ARCHITECTS OF MODERNITY really want a free America that doesn't need them? I'm guessing not.
Conservatives have their own idea of "21st century skills" and this involves all the values listed above. It also includes learning real skills by buckling down to the books and taking personal responsibility- not visiting with your friends and doing only what you like, and what is "creative" and "exciting" and "fun".
The only thing the "progressives" have done is destroy this country with the old failed ideas of the Communists. They like to take credit for the Civil Rights movement- but sorry- the Democrats in the south fought Civil Rights as long as they could. No, these people can take credit for societal break down and economic implosion and debt. They can take credit for propaganda and lies that they use to try to get more and more control- like the Global Warming scam and the alternative energy scam.Community Centers are not the same as schools. They can drop the "nothing has changed" garbage- senior citizens going to schools to get healthcare is not the same as using the gym for basketball practice!! How stupid do they think or hope the American people are? They can take credit for the break down of our justice system and government corruption that we've never seen the likes of before. They can take credit for turning our public school system into propaganda centers where children learn to separate from their parents with their own opinions and points of view when they're five. Old Communist ideas are not a hold on our future. Liberals are NOT THE ARCHITECTS OF MODERNITY!!
I taught in low income schools and I taught children the values to climb the ladder of success.

CORRUPTION
Central planning always leads to corruption and the United States is no exception. When you hear about all the corruption going on - there is so much that they don't even become scandals anymore-just reports- you might feel like you are living in a banana republic.
Let's start with Carlos Slim- off and on the richest man in the world. He has made FIVE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS off of the Obama Phone program. You see, you get charged a fee on your phone every month to buy cell phones for the "poor". For every cell phone that is given out the government pays Carlos $9.25 a month.What a deal- Carlos might even just give those cell phones away- in fact- you really don't have to prove your income in most cases and some people get more than one phone!! Carlos must be laughing his head off on his way to the bank- he's rich because they don't have much of a welfare system in Mexico where he is a citizen- that's why all the poor Mexicans come to the United States for services!! He doesn't have to pay the taxes and he collects all the telephone fees that the sucker Americans are forced to pay!!
The list goes on- today it was reported that the U.N. is giving low income reports to ambassadors so that they can sign up for medicaid- this qualifies them for welfare and they are taking vacations and buying cars on our dime! Forty nine ambassadors have been located so far- hmm- do you think it has stopped at forty nine? In the Wall Street Journal today it is reported that a judge gave her good friend a honey of a job- $1,000 an hour to investigate Apple- but whoops- the friend doesn't know how to investigate Apple so he takes his $1,000 an hour and then has hired someone else at $1000 an hour and sends the bill of $2,000 an hour to Apple. The consumer pays for all of this.
In schools we used to have fair competition among curriculum companies. There were so many curriculum companies to choose from- Silver Burdett, McGraw Hill, Houghton Miflin, Scott Foresman - to name a few. Then the Federal Government got involved- now it looks as if Pearson will just walk off with the prize. All schools have the same curriculum- which is copyrighted- and all books must have the same curriculum. No more need to compete or improve or innovate- Common Core has taken care of all that. Common Core tests will be on computers- schools better anti up to Microsoft or they won't be able to take the tests. No choice, no competition, no decisions to make - all taken care of in Washington. School administrators are not paid to think- they must go along- and they all do. Our schools have become corrupt power cartels dictated to from Washington. All they have to do is go along. Who really cares if the kids are learning anything or if all of these ideas are bad and destructive? You don't get paid for bucking the system- and the amount of money in that system is hard to fathom.
You know, since no one is thinking anymore, you just go with the flow and don't ask for proof either. Did you hear that they falsified the employment data right before the election? Another corruption report that just came and went into the ether. People from the census bureau were reporting that they were told to makeup positive data. In school employees just say programs work- like Montessori or Dare or the Gifted and Talented program- no data needed. When asked about conflicts- like" How come Montessori says every kid should learn at their own speed and Common Core insists that every kid will learn the same things at the same time in every grade?"- we are told Common Core doesn't have grade levels!! Common Core not only has grade levels it has a scope and sequence!!
The bigger the government in Washington gets the more corrupt and unaccountable they become- the more destructive and secretive they become- the more they need the press to be their pubic relations department and cover for them. We certainly see that in the paper here- they run a positive made up story about Common Core weekly - ON THE FRONT PAGE!! They bury the truth and won't do investigative reporting. If they DID do investigative reporting they might report that the Helena schools in following the Community Centers plan for "21st century schools" has every intention of closing at least two schools- though the superintendent has PROMISED NO SCHOOLS WOULD BE CLOSED.
All this sadness and lying and corruption which leads to public distrust and economic collapse has been brought on by the central planners. We can only hope that the American Dream will not die on the bed of these socialist nim com poops.

THE SPIN
Have you noticed THE SPIN coming out of the White House about Obama care? I love the new one- health subsidies are now your "opportunity". Yes, the land of the free and the brave, the land of opportunity where my grandparents came to from Europe to build their life based on freedom and the opportunity to work and raise their class status and life, now bases its opportunity on GOVERNMENT SUBSIDIES!! THE LAND OF OPPORTUNITY IS NOW THE OPPORTUNITY TO PICK SOMEONE ELSES POCKET, not to achieve FOR YOURSELF AND YOUR FAMILY!!
Socialists are terrible at governing because for the large part they have no real life experience outside of government, NO COMMON SENSE, NO UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN NATURE, and their ideas are TERRIBLE FAILURES, but they are very good at THE SPIN. Do you want to know why they are so good at THE SPIN? They are so good at THE SPIN - BECAUSE NO ONE WOULD VOTE FOR THEM IF THEY TOLD THE TRUTH!!
Ever since Marx rolled out his ideas his followers have had to SPIN, to misrepresent and to lie, to get what they wanted. No matter how many times Marxism fails there are people who will just not give up on the idea that government can control lives and fortunes and create a panacea. There is just never an end to people who think they are so much better and so much smarter than YOU that they must social engineer you and your children, and take your money, so that THEY can create the perfect world. This is their idea of freedom.
I'm involved in schools because that is where the HEART OF THE SOCIALIST MOVEMENT IS PLAYING OUT. If you go to the Federal Department of Education website- www.ed.gov/pubs/edpubs.html. you will find an archived document, written in 1998 titled- "Schools
As Centers of Community". If you read this document you find the socialist dream of HEALTH CENTERS in the school that will service the WHOLE COMMUNITY among many other "services" that will connect and socialize us all . Guess who gets to pay for all this? Think real hard- yes- it's you!!
Guess who gets to decide what we all "must know" and "must do" and "must have"- well- that isn't you. Just drop your kids off - our socialist friends and bureaucrats from Washington will take care of all
of THAT. What are you complaining about? They'll probably be so kind as to LET you come to a consensus group and help pick a version of WHAT THEY WANT.
Did you know that our schools are "national school facilities" sic . Yes, our schools belong to the Federal Government- our schools are to be planned and evaluated and looked after by the Feds!! Hmm- I thought public schools were a STATES prerogative. Whoever handed our schools over to the Feds? If states want new school buildings they will build them- the bureaucrats in Washington just don't need to worry their ugly little heads about it. But alas- they have a 59 page document detailing exactly how schools should be built and the process that every school district must go through.
The Helena school district is on step 7. Such an opportunity for socialist renewal !! According to Richard Riley (Secretary of Education under Clinton ) our "national schools" are in need of repair and this is such an opportunity to rebuild them in the socialist image (he calls it "21st century schools"). Might I mention that THE SCHOOLS ARE IN BAD REPAIR BECAUSE THEIR PUPPET MASTERS IN WASHINGTON HAVE PUT OUT SO MANY GRANTS THAT HAVE ADDED COSTS AND PROGRAMS AND THEN WENT AWAY, THAT THE GENERAL FUNDS CAN'T MAINTAIN THE SCHOOLS ANYMORE? Oh yes, the socialists create the crisis and then they have the solution!! My, my, - small schools where kids aren't in "isolated" classrooms where they have to listen. Oh no- now they will run around and talk to their friends!! They will be "doing" rather than receiving and "creating" rather than recreating!! Oh yes, they know so much that they will be doing medical research I suppose instead of recreating those old science experiments that teach them things - like the old dissecting a frog. No quiet focused environments where you accumulate KNOWLEDGE- oh no-they will learn by discussing their opinions on global warming (their teacher's opinion really), with their friends.
The socialists vision of the 21st century is that , as Hillary Clinton so eloquently put it, "We are all in this together". So, the children in school will grow up in this perverted zoo like environment, all depending on one another and looking to the government for their opinions and their lunch. They will learn very little except how to be dependent and vote for Democrats. This is a tragic and sick situation and America better learn to KILL THE SPIN before it is too late.
As usual our Helena community is sitting down for THE SPIN from the socialists. Yes, our school district is just planning maintenance - ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS WORTH!!

THE LIFE'S BLOOD
The LIFE'S BLOOD of every wannabe dictator, bureaucrat and autocrat is the MONEY!! Our Helena School District just got their levy passed (second try- the mighty titans don't have to take no for an answer - that's democracy I guess- the titans get to keep going back again until they get what they want) anyway, the mighty titans got their LIFE'S BLOOD and they are so happy- now they can ask the public for the ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLAR BOND to build their -as a board member said- co--- I mean schools- she wanted to say community centers so badly!!
I think any honest person was raised to understand that your ends do not justify your means. This is not the case with liberal bureaucrats. They want what they want and they get it any way they can, which usually involves lying. You see, they think they are so RIGHT and so much smarter than you, that they have the RIGHT to mislead, coverup and lie to you ( like all good FASCISTS). The mill levy propaganda would have been hysterically funny if it wasn't just so tragic. Apparently, Amy Yerko was brought to Helena Montana from Chicago, to help them plan their maintenance!! The $250,000.00 spent out of the last levy to hire an architectural firm to hold town meetings (no architecture) where Amy Yerko was drug in , were just hired to "help plan maintenance!!". Well the people bought it, at least the Liberals did. We'll see if the Liberals will swallow the ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. Kent Kultgen, the superintendent, sure hopes they do- his job depends on it. You see, non-profits need free space and head count to keep meeting their bottom line. With sequester it becomes even more important for the schools to anti up. The bond will let them build the community centers with the office space and rooms for all the non profits to just move in and hopefully become a part of the school tax base!!
Our superintendent has taken it upon himself to rename our schools- we now have Helena High Title and Bryant Elementary Title etc. Title stands for a federal program called Title one. You see, if you are a "Title" school you get to apply for all the federal grants that are the LIFE'S BLOOD of all the socialist non profits. I mean gee whiz- jobs need to be paid for and everybody needs raises don't they? Why should they care about the taxpayer? Why should they care about the parents of these "poor" students being able to pay their bills? I'm sure there's another welfare program to help them pay their property taxes!! "The Federal Government can print money, just let them pay for it" - I have actually heard this said by liberals and have even seen it printed- wow, what lack of understanding about our economy and the consequences to any economy when governments print money.
Title schools give free food and programs to EVERYBODY irregardless of their parents income!!Wow- they deserve it right- and anyway the food service and non profits are making their LIFE'S BLOOD so who cares what kind of values they are teaching the children. Everybody get in and grab what you can!! What America stands for? Who cares about that - let's just change it to America stands for everybody having the RIGHT to get theirs.
Does it even occur to this superintendent to think of what he is doing to the students and the pride they have for their school by naming them Helena High Title? Does it even occur to him that classifying and naming schools by their income levels may make students feel bad about the school they go to ? I guess in the sick world he comes from adding up those "Title" schools must make him real proud- but it doesn't make the kids proud.
Title schools get their lauded position simply by having 40% of their students on free or reduced lunch. The schools can pick any day in the month- so the secretary better jump on any day they are so lucky to reach the 40%! Don't miss it!! We love to have poverty schools!! And we are so proud of it too!! And how does the secretary know that the family really makes the income they report on the free and reduced lunch form? She doesn't. She only has to check a few forms at random and call the employer. Most of it is just the honor system. Would anyone lie to get free stuff? You be the judge.
To conclude this voyage into the socialist wonderland I will just tell you that the state superintendent Denise Juneau, as reported by the school superintendent at the board meeting, came to him and said "You are underreporting the number of homeless. Districts your size should have more homeless!". Well, he got busy on that one and got the number up from 40 to 120!! What a good superintendent, he's so good at helping all the bureaucrats and suck-offs get their LIFE'S BLOOD. You see, the state office of public instruction has a department for the homeless- and well- how can they get their LIFE'S BLOOD (grant money) if they don't have the head count!! America- wake up and call off these dogs.
I think any honest person was raised to understand that your ends do not justify your means. This is not the case with liberal bureaucrats. They want what they want and they get it any way they can, which usually involves lying. You see, they think they are so RIGHT and so much smarter than you, that they have the RIGHT to mislead, coverup and lie to you ( like all good FASCISTS). The mill levy propaganda would have been hysterically funny if it wasn't just so tragic. Apparently, Amy Yerko was brought to Helena Montana from Chicago, to help them plan their maintenance!! The $250,000.00 spent out of the last levy to hire an architectural firm to hold town meetings (no architecture) where Amy Yerko was drug in , were just hired to "help plan maintenance!!". Well the people bought it, at least the Liberals did. We'll see if the Liberals will swallow the ONE HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS. Kent Kultgen, the superintendent, sure hopes they do- his job depends on it. You see, non-profits need free space and head count to keep meeting their bottom line. With sequester it becomes even more important for the schools to anti up. The bond will let them build the community centers with the office space and rooms for all the non profits to just move in and hopefully become a part of the school tax base!!
Our superintendent has taken it upon himself to rename our schools- we now have Helena High Title and Bryant Elementary Title etc. Title stands for a federal program called Title one. You see, if you are a "Title" school you get to apply for all the federal grants that are the LIFE'S BLOOD of all the socialist non profits. I mean gee whiz- jobs need to be paid for and everybody needs raises don't they? Why should they care about the taxpayer? Why should they care about the parents of these "poor" students being able to pay their bills? I'm sure there's another welfare program to help them pay their property taxes!! "The Federal Government can print money, just let them pay for it" - I have actually heard this said by liberals and have even seen it printed- wow, what lack of understanding about our economy and the consequences to any economy when governments print money.
Title schools give free food and programs to EVERYBODY irregardless of their parents income!!Wow- they deserve it right- and anyway the food service and non profits are making their LIFE'S BLOOD so who cares what kind of values they are teaching the children. Everybody get in and grab what you can!! What America stands for? Who cares about that - let's just change it to America stands for everybody having the RIGHT to get theirs.
Does it even occur to this superintendent to think of what he is doing to the students and the pride they have for their school by naming them Helena High Title? Does it even occur to him that classifying and naming schools by their income levels may make students feel bad about the school they go to ? I guess in the sick world he comes from adding up those "Title" schools must make him real proud- but it doesn't make the kids proud.
Title schools get their lauded position simply by having 40% of their students on free or reduced lunch. The schools can pick any day in the month- so the secretary better jump on any day they are so lucky to reach the 40%! Don't miss it!! We love to have poverty schools!! And we are so proud of it too!! And how does the secretary know that the family really makes the income they report on the free and reduced lunch form? She doesn't. She only has to check a few forms at random and call the employer. Most of it is just the honor system. Would anyone lie to get free stuff? You be the judge.

ARE NEWSPAPERS PROVIDING COMMUNICATION OR MANIPULATION?
Today is voting day in Helena, Montana. The people have been voting for weeks with write in ballots- our citizens are not allowed to vote at the polls for city or school elections anymore. Who cares about secure elections- the bureaucrats love write in elections- so much less work. But on to the question at hand- do the people have the information they should have before they vote?
The FREE PRESS is a cornerstone of our freedom. How can you exercise your freedom when you don't have the information? The FREE PRESS, otherwise known as THE NEWSPAPERS, are counted on to tell the people the truth. These are the very people that should have known that Obama was lying about the healthcare bill BEFORE it was passed. They didn't scramble to find a"'Deep Throat"like in the old Watergate scandal days. They just weren't so curious about whether your health insurance policy would be canceled or if the price of your health insurance would really go down $2,500.00 a year for a family of four. They didn't even care that your insurance would obviously go up when insurance companies were REQUIRED to offer more services and accept EVERYBODY - even if they just got sick ( kind of like signing up for car insurance after you have an accident and the insurance company being forced to pay for the accident). Such a lack of curiosity by the press, such a benefit for lefty central government control freak liars, such a tragedy for freedom in America.
Here's what happened in Helena. We have a Helena School District building levy on the ballot today. My husband asked a simple question- "If you want us to vote more money for you, could we please see how you spent the money in the last levy?". It took us SIX MONTHS of asking to finally get this information. Can you believe in these days of technology they couldn't just print out a spread sheet? These are the incompetents that are doing home visits in your home.
So my husband went through the information and found some very curious things. One of the things he found was that with THIRTY FIVE boilers past their life expectancy our district decided to put almost a million dollars ($875,000.00) into a school that is filled with FEDERAL PROGRAMS , a school that IS CLOSED TO THE NEIGHBORHOOD STUDENTS. Instead of replacing BOILERS and fixing ROOFS, instead of looking out for the welfare and safety of the general school population, they financed fixing buildings for HEAD START!! My husband wrote a Your Turn article with all of the pertinent information and school district referenced sources. THE NEWSPAPER WOULD NOT PRINT THE YOUR TURN!! My husband emailed the editor and called the editor (answering machine) to no avail. Your Turns for the levy were printed but not my husbands with the correct information. He wasn't advocating for or against- he just wanted the information out there.
The News Paper gave the Helena School District FOUR PAGES to advocate for their levy (plus a front page story and big above the fold picture) but they would not print the Your Turn that gave the facts. Even an old warrior in these school wars such as myself was startled at what came next. The Helena School District listed all the projects that they had done with the former levy- BUT THEY NEVER MENTIONED THE $875,000.00 THEY SPENT ON RAY BJORK SCHOOL!!
My husband called the newspaper to point out this very important fact. Only one other project had more money spent on it than Ray Bjork. Ray Bjork spending amounted to more than ten percent of total outlays- surely they would want to correct their story! Wrong again- they buried it.
I'm sorry to all the citizens of Helena that missed this information. THIS IS HOW THE NEWSPAPERS MANIPULATE YOUR VOTE INSTEAD OF PROTECTING FREEDOM. THE NEWSPAPERS HAVE ABDICATED THEIR RESPONSIBILITY TO THE PUBLIC IN ORDER TO BOW TO THE LIES OF LEFTISTS THAT CAN NEVER TELL YOU THE REAL TRUTH BECAUSE THEY WOULD LOSE YOUR VOTE IF YOU KNEW WHO THEY REALLY WERE.
The Newspaper allowed FOUR PAGES for the Helena School District to promote their bond.

C O N T R O L
The United States Constitution was written to give YOU control over your government- put another way - to stop the Federal government from assuming too much power. Socialists don't understand this, and don't like our constitution. They are comfortable with the government controlling almost all aspects of our lives. They don't have faith in people being able to take care of themselves- they think we all NEED the Federal Government or we would starve to death or not be able to raise and educate our children or not have health care and so on.
Do you want your public school to now take over your child's pre K life? The federal government program Head Start has a stated goal of taking control over your children from the WOMB! Is that O.K. with you? Where does the Federal government bow out and the family, individual and local government take over?
Our government has a separation of powers to stop dictatorial control- decisions are checked and balanced between the legislative, judicial, and executive branches of the government. But that is not the only way that freedom is maintained. Freedom is maintained by local governments maintaining their own control. School districts providing education as they see fit with state oversight is one way of maintaining freedom. As mentioned on this blog many times- unfortunately our local school districts and state departments of education are now nothing more than puppets which are controlled by Washington D.C. Do you think the bureaucrats in Washington are so much smarter than you and your husband/wife that they SHOULD determine what your children SHOULD be taught and HOW they should be taught? Are they so much smarter than your local school board or school superintendents or teachers? Are they so smart that they should run your city and state too? Are you really so incompetent that you can't provide food, daycare,education, safety, or healthcare without Federal Government involvement?
For two hundred years American Citizens took care of themselves and their families, now they are told they just can't do it without Federal Government control. I know they are wrong and you do to. Get the
Federal Government power mongers out of our lives and homes. One nut case that believes in the "village" idea of Hillary Clinton is sending out letters to trick or treaters tonight warning their parents about the danger of candy! Control freaks everywhere buy into this Federal Government attitude that is being taught- you need their help and advice.
Obama Care is a complete nightmare, destroying the best healthcare in the world. Common Core is no better - with no research or trials it is imploding everywhere and as the president of the union said "may be the end of public education". The twelve people in the Federal Reserve working their "magic" are going to cause us all great destruction and pain. The do gooders have brought our Federal Debt to astronomical proportions. Let's just try to say it one more time- YOU can provide for your children, YOU can choose your healthcare for yourself from free markets, YOU can decide on the best education for your children, and your local school boards and the educators you hire can provide good
education. YOU can feed and clothe your children and find daycare for them and decide how to raise them - ALL WITHOUT THE HELP OF THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
THE PEOPLE- can run schools and hospitals and cities WITHOUT THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT. For two hundred years we ate and lived and learned and raised our children and decided our values without the Federal Government directing us. The people alive today are not so different from those of the past, they are just being made to believe they NEED these worthless bureaucrats in Washington D.C. TAKE YOUR COUNTRY BACK AMERICA- TAKE BACK CONTROL OVER YOUR OWN LIVES- SEND THE FEDS AND ALL THEIR FEDERAL GRANTS PACKING BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE.WHEN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS GAINED ALL THE CONTROL, THEY WILL CONTROL YOU WITHOUT THE MONEY. THEY WILL HAVE DESTROYED THE ECONOMY AS IN THE SOVIET BLOC. YOU WILL HAVE LOST ANY POWER TO FIGHT BACK.
AND YOU'VE LOST YOUR POWER TO FIGHT BACK.
