Hope for America: New Contract with America

[JLB]

Do you agree with the main points of the New Contract with America?

• Stop out of control spending
• Keep taxes low
• Get rid of COVID mandates; schools closed, masks...
• Get rid of Critical Race theory
• Secure our Borders
• Support Law Enforcement
• Teaching real American history in schools
• Abolishing the 1619 Project

This is not a Political discussion about Biden or Trump.


Do not post any negative comments about Biden or Trump.


I believe enough time has passed since the election where we can discuss these things without inflammatory rhetoric.

What do you mean by teaching "real" American history?

Does the People's History of the United States by Howard Zinn count?

Actual history, of how this nation was founded and the people who founded it; who drafted the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, as well as the Bill of Rights.


Why this Nation was founded.


The events of the Civil War; why it was fought, and who was for and against slavery.


How we got involved in WWII, KOREA, VIETNAM.



History such as these things.

This thread is not about funding the government on fiat money.


Real change in our nation will come by taking steps, and some of those steps involve our children and what they are taught in school.


How about taking part in the poll?

Ok

I'm voting a conditional Yes. I support law enforcement when it conducts itself according to the constitution. I feel law enforcement is in dire need of reform to weed out psychopaths and corruption with a national registry to keep bad cops off the streets. Other changes are needed as well. Hard to vote the whole 8 points straight up yes or no.

 

[Corn Pop]

Im voting nothing and also have no comment because im not American so i have no say its nt my business and also this world gives me a headache so i have no comment.

I feel we should keep the schools closed for good.
Return the teaching of children to their parents, as was since the beginning.

You mean a parent should have the repsonsibility to raise, feed, and teach there own children and not the government that is only a handful of random representatives that argue over everything and is unstable ? . If so i agree.

Home schooling? Only weird people choose that, don't they?
Sorry I'm joking. But I question the wisdom of it. Kids need to socialise with a cross section of the community. Otherwise they remain naive . Imo.

Parents can home school yet at the same time enrol there children into a weekend social sports team so they learn there social skill an interact with others for example. Home school does not mean have to isolate from everyone in the world its only a parent teaching and raising there own child for how ever many hours a week.

It is written..."But ye are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people; that ye should shew forth the praises of him who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light;" (1 Peter 2:9)
I rejoice in my peculiarity.

I would rather my kids never fraternized with the children of the devilish.

What is public school anyhow. I mean its government run so its not like its a test to find and pick out the most intelligent that will get a knock on the door and offer by the government.

What is the one thing they dont teach in schools. Money. Where it comes from and how its created. Amazing how its all about studing hard at school to get a career just so you can work for someone else. No one gets taught to go out on there own and make it for themsleves. Get a career and join this well estblished company and become CEO you done well in life. Why not build your own house.

So kids who attend regular schools are of the devil.
Mmm... Sorry that's far out.

Kids of a young age haven't reached the age of accountability yet.
It is the parents that subject the kids to the influences of the world who are devilish.

They could teach how to be an entrepreneur I agree. As an elective at least. Maybe school is partly babysitting until we have to face the real world. Then go to university if you want to postpone even further.
