Current Outlook

"Is America toast?"

The election of Muslims as Mayors of New York City and Minneapolis should be viewed as the beginning of the end of the American experiment begun in 1776.

The nation has fallen since the early 1950's when its high school graduates ranked in the top 5% of all nations in world. 

World War II was the last conflict in which the U.S. has really managed to defeat one of its so-called adversaries.

Prior to 1960, elementary and secondary teachers were hired primarily based upon the fact that they were knowledgable with the subject matter being taught.

During the late 1950's, teacher hiring shifted to being able to write out and follow subject guidelines and teach from written lesson plans often prepared by governmental bodies.

The result of the impact of the federal Department of Education has been disastrous and today we rank below the median in almost every metric.

The election is the result of an education system dominated by socialist women who control the teacher unions and the school boards.

 Of course, President Johnson's "War on Poverty" which led to the destruction of the nuclear family also must be given some credit.

Remember -- "Only purchasing power counts!"

Remember to  "Keep It Safe, Simple and Stay Focused!" going forward.
