In America, liberals believe in making the country a better place.

Conservatives believe in making the country a better place, for
themselves.

The so-called liberals believe in imposing their
totalitarian ideas, which their quasi-religious
"halakhah" tells them it is how people should live.

They believe in the utterly stupid idea that all
children should get essentially the SAME education.
Now I believe that the opportunity should be there,
but even this will not make it the same, as not all
parents can provide the important parts. But I find
it difficult to come up with a sufficiently strong
punishment for those who will put all children of
the same age in the same classroom, or to insist
that the present "certified" teachers be the only
ones to teach them.
