   No, it IS relevant. The globalists who control our very   
   own corrupt DC Establishment (aka the Deep State) WANT   
   our kids to fail, so the rest of the world can surpass   
   us.

   It all began with the creation of the Department of   
   Education. It was then made worse as the public   
   schools were regularly saddled with more and more   
   federal mandates.

   That's why it was important to abolish the crappy   
   Department of Education, which has FINALLY happened.

   Okay, with what part of Trump's abolishment of the   
   Department of Education are you having a problem?

   Of course.

   You don't agree that private schools are doing a   
   better job than public schools?

   Do you really not understand the concept of   
   competition, and how it forces people to do   
   better if they want to be a success?   
      
   When people have a monopoly and no competition,   
   what is their motivation to do better?
