"As for those of you who’ve read some or even all of the above and still believe I’m exaggerating our current state of affairs, please let me point out a few things. Many of you may have read my first NWVs article, The Seven Deadly Sins of Public Education. I know you did because several hundred of you have written me and thanked me for saying what’s wrong with 'some' public schools. As I told you then, not all public schools are practicing all of the Seven Deadies, but some schools are indeed up to their eyeballs in Big Brother’s prole producing teaching strategies, and all schools are using some of these anti-learning devices. Public schools are NOT failures. They’re doing exactly what they were designed to do – dumb down the masses, so they can be more easily managed! If you have a child in a public school, please get him or her out."
