Perhaps a democratic republic, tho calling it that is confusing to many people. So call it what it is: a Constitutional Republic. A nation based upon LAW, not mob rule. This explains it rather well:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJEuZrvNYg0 We would suffer under a democracy as we would quickly turn into a socialist nation (possibly already there due to the misunderstanding of law along with desires for power by some wealthy people) and then followed by becoming a communist nation (which is getting closer as our leaders ignore the very laws of this country that make it a free country. This is made all the more easy for the miscreants because the USA has a pretty ignorant citizenry.).....the word democracy is not anywhere in our CONSTITUTION on purpose. The Founders hated a democracy. We need a restoration of Constitutional law, and a lot of Constitution along with its history taught in 'public' school. Don't wait for it to happen, however, for public school is working nicely as the "public indoctrination center" to fundamentally change the USA into a collective or communist part of the NWO. You have heard of Agenda 21 now 2030, right? 1 Reply Abby 4/23/24 re: Daniel Joseph Berrigan quote 12-16 years of education in public education system where a child is in school 6 hrs a day, then 2 or 3 hrs in after care (often at the school) without constant parenting by a mom and dad and then coming home to dinner and bed leaves little time for goodness training. Also,few 2 parent homes. Once the gov. realized 2 taxpayers in a family meant more revenue it became necessary to convince women that they were totally unfulfilled being 'just a mom'...the rest is history. The hand that rocks the cradle... Reply Abby 4/23/24 re: Benjamin Disraeli quote Yeeeesss, tho it can also mean today: people get what THEY want. You know, that mysterious they who at this time appear to be running all the education systems.

Reply ABBY 4/18/24 re: John Taylor Gatto quote His books are priceless.... 2 Reply abby 4/15/24 re: John Adams quote Education is not a duty of the federal government. It is a duty of parents and their state. This duty was usurped to 'standardize education' which hasn't done anything to improve education. Never have we produced so many thoughtless and illiterate people in my 80 years on this planet. Government control is just that...control, not teaching. Read NEA The Trojan Horse in Public Education, and The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America by Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt (RIP and thanks for the information). Don't get the revised and abridged edition if you can find an original. 1 Reply ABBY 3/28/24 re: Mahatma Mohandas K. Gandhi quote 87,000 ARMED IRS agents??? Reply Abby 3/18/24 re: Dr. Ron Paul quote He is correct. It should be abolished. 1 Reply abby 2/16/24 re: Walter Lippmann quote They are failing, however the dem party took the pages from Mao and Lenin and other bad actors before beginning to fail so the 'other' party cannot do anything to stop the fail. Tighten your grip on the handlebars of the bicycle. You don't want to lose yourself in the muck. We are on the Road to Serfdom...censorship, communist education in the schools...immorality...infected voting...it is going to get much worse...an army is crossing the boarder... 1 Reply Abby 1/2/24 re: Publius Cornelius Tacitus quote Makes sense...and we see it playing out with Biden's current blast of new laws. 1 Reply Abby 1/1/24 re: Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. quote I love this speech. I am sad that we have so many who want to destroy the nation with division and communism. Hopefully, we will see this pendulum begin to swing back to a more virtuous humanity in 2024. I will pray for that and the naysayers. Reply Abby 1/1/24 re: Norman Cousins quote ...poetic... Reply Abby 12/27/23 re: John Philpot Curran quote As we witness happening today, eh? $33 trillion in debt and growing... Reply ABBY 12/26/23 re: Benjamin Franklin quote 1 Reply ABBY 12/26/23 re: Alexander Hamilton quote Beautifully explained. Sadly, many people wear sun glasses with blinders on the sides. I enjoyed this explanation. Reply Abby 12/22/23 re: J. C. Watts, Jr. quote We must pray and speak and act to save our nation. With God's help, we might succeed. After reading Romans is God even on 'our' side any longer as so many have turned their back on the Creator. I am praying to have a free and great America again, but the hate is huge among many, the integrity of many leaders is poor, and many in our population are turning their back on the One who can help us. Can we rise above these things? I pray we can. Reply ABBY 12/21/23 re: Albert Einstein quote Well spoken! 1 Reply abby 12/16/23 re: John Marshall Harlan quote What we were given...and what is ignored will lead to our demise? it is easy to take away from the owners of such liberty when they have no idea what that is or what it cost. 2 Reply Abby 11/16/23 re: Aristotle quote Wouldn't this negate the climb up the ladder of the motivated? Stifle the notions of the innovator? Wouldn't this cause a lapse in competition between companies or people to make better products? And finally, wouldn't the greater number of people in the end of a democracy, oppress the lesser number in all situations? Equality of opportunity: Yes! A democracy? NO! A Republic: YES Reply abby 11/1/23 re: Robert M. Hutchins quote After listening to Yuri Bezmenov (late) it is difficult to believe anyone who has been brainwashed to believe one thing will suddenly become 'civilized' and turn out fine. It has taken years tod reach this point of divide...and conquer may be closer than we know. Reply Abby 8/31/23 re: Diogenes quote Maybe this is true when individual states (the US Constitution did not declare education a federal responsibility leaving it to the 10th Amendment) are in charge. Then we have competition, motivation, innovation...however when the State is the federal government, the education becomes a form of indoctrination to be used by the administration in office or whatever power is in charge. Reply ABBY 8/28/23 re: Lord Acton quote We all, outside the privileged class of some politicians, live in a petri dish. Our every move and word is recorded. Often with permission...even our 4th Amendment is under attack. Next 25 SaveOk2 Share on Facebook Tweet Email Print
