If it was just that my children didn't know much about science I would be pleased.
Its easier to list what I've seen/encountered:

1. A school holding an impromptu general assembly MANDATED by the school district promoting the global warming theme without informing parents. If my kids did not mention it to me I would never have known it occurred. There was no opposing viewpoint or Q&A, just indoctrination.

2. Social studies teachers are revising and manufacturing history. A year ago my daughters SS teacher decided to educate the children using copies of historical inventions by black people that changed the world. Oddly enough, she handed out the papers to the kids and collected them as the children left the classroom. My daughter remembered the title and I found it online. In two pages of accomplishments, the teachers course material claimed, among many other things. that black people invented the light bulb and invented combs. While I have no real interest who invented many of the items/gadgets I use today it does concern me that to uplift black people for black history month LIES are manufactured and taught to our kids. Surely there are true accomplisments that can be used to present the contributions of the black race?

3. Bullying. My daughter was being harassed by a young boy in school 3-4 years ago. The school reqired that children anonymously fill out forms and place them in a bully box where they can be collected and counted. Once the bully had enough complaints the school would act. Until the school felt legally covered my daughter would have continued to be called names and ridiculed. I wrote this article chronicling the incident: http://amchron.soundenterprises.net/arti...

4. Schools lauding mediocrity. I received a phone call from my sons match teacher a few year back telling me how well he was doing in Algrbra. I asked what his grade was and was told a "C". It would be laughable were it not so pathetic. I pulled my son out of high school (where he was generally a C student in most subjects) and enrolled him in an online high scholl for his junior and senior year. He graduated last May with a "B" average after essentially teaching himself his lessons AND guitar.

6. Children in Arizona learn more about Mexican, Mayan, and Incan history than they do about American history.

This is just off the top of my head. I'm sure, given a little time, I could easily think of several more incidents.

in order to win a war, one must win some battles.
A great way to illustrate our philosophy in action is to see how it applies tangibly in our lives. Turning the economy around is incredibly important to peoples' daily lives.
Himmler line: "Tell a lie often enough.."
Our enemies are saying the downturn is the result of capitalism. this is not even close to capitalism, but a heavily planned economy.

I think philosophy needs to come first too...it's the foundation for everything else. (Ominous Parallels is really hammering this home for me.)

I always stop people I see wearing teeshirts with his picture. especially teens.

Ayn Rand made the point that all work is an act of philosophy. If you are having trouble feeding yourself, then you need better philosophy. It is not an abstract luxury. Also, long ago, in some management book or other, I took the advice not to fight fires: the fires will burn themselves out right now; prevent fires by planning for the future. That is a philosophical perspective. See my posts under Philosophy and Culture. You can generate all kinds of points and comments by dissing President Obama or wringing your hands over the present state of affairs (or affairs of state). Not many people who claim to be "influenced" by Ayn Rand get past the concretes of the headline news.

I was thinking of the short term when I wrote that. If I'm having trouble keeping food on the table I certainly don't have time to spend on philosophical education outside those very close to me. I understand over the long term we have to focus on a shared philosophy. I think of capitalism as an economic system vs political system, economics as a science. (well it should be treated as a science-the reality is laughable).

Actually, that would be 1. philosophically and 2. politically (which is what I assumed you meant by 'economically'). As for the indoctrination, I will have a post about the ARI Essay Contests. We have reason to be hopeful.

so many things have to happen. 1st-economically. 2. philosophically. and that's hard, when the indoctrination is hitting our kids starting kindergarten from inside the education system.
what issues have you had with your kids' science teachers, besides the fact they don't know much science?

Despite knowing better I can't stop myself from engaging in dialogue with these types of people. Prior to my books I wrote political commentary, hosted an online radio talk show, and managed a political discussion website. I've been an active and vocal advocate against illegal immigration here in Arizona AND I've been a loadstone around the necks of the revisionist history and science teachers my children have had and their principals. I may chastise myself about it after the fact but I still hold out hope that this country, my country, the one I gave up my liberty for, can be saved.
