Baa Baa Bad Sheep

Do we want our children to be Critical Thinkers or Sheep?

No matter what hand you are dealt in life, economically speaking, the one thing you have that is free is the ability to reason. And the more you use this ability, the better you get at it. The more you question, the more you will know. The more you know, the better able you will be to handle problems independently.

The GOP thinks school is bad.... wonder why that is? Hmmm... cause maybe they want you to be a flock of sheep?

But that logic, seems to fly in direct opposition of their whole platform of Government is bad because you become dependent on it.

Well, if you are not a critical thinker, then you have to be like a sheep and be led. And that is the trick they are pulling right over the eyes of their constituents. They themselves want to be in control. They don't want anyone overseeing them. They don't want the sheep to pop up and say, wait a second, exactly where are you taking us? You are taking us to the slaughter house? What's slaughter? And they especially don't want someone stepping in for the welfare of the sheep and say, you can't slaughter all the sheep and you can't do it in a cruel fashion.

Education and critical thinking IS the enemy of the GOP because it means the can led you to your own slaughter and you won't question it or know what hit it you... well...   until it hits you...
