Episode 26:  Normal people don't want absolute power   (Dec. 22, 2021) Socialism/Communism has two tricks: promise everything good, and then be willing to do anything bad. Ruthless schemers make elaborate promises to gain favor with the people, and then they abuse that power any way you can imagine, as history shows.That's how some really ruthless people were able to kill so many millions of victims in several countries. We need to have more honesty, more realism, in our society and in our schools, so we can see the totalitarian mechanism as it starts to happen.The problem for education is that  these ruthless schemers naturally try to use education to their advantage. They will change education, they will subvert education,  they will pervert education. Throughout  the 20th century, the Education Establishment was modifying K-12 as a way of enabling undesirable social change. Let's Fix Education explains to Americans why their schools are so bad. The people in charge prefer mediocrity because they are socialists of one kind or another. If people work together to promote real education, we'll have it.Support the show
