How is the "smartest animal" on the planet the only one dumb enough to believe he'd starve without taxpayer assistance? I'm from Newfoundland, where we had "denominational education" (publicly-funded education, run by the various religious denominations....it was over 97% Christian here at the time) until the early 90s. The Mount Cashel sex abuse scandal caused this system to fall out of favor and a constitutional amendment was passed (denominational education was protected under the terms of Union signed between Canada and Nfld in '49) to bring Nflds public education system in-line with what was going on in the rest of America. In the 30 years since test scores have bottomed out, and the costs of running the system, which should have been drastically reduced, have skyrocketed. As far as I'm concerned I shouldn't be forced to pay for the drag queen story hour at your kids school or your food stamps (a worm is born with no arms and legs and still feeds itself. Trust me you can too!). As long as there is taxpayer funded education I'm totally OK with the $ following the child to a school that's more in tune with the parents morals and away from these gender-obsessed State run godless indoctrination camps.
