    Where do the educators and the educators of educators fit in, they don't get elected, their salary is guaranteed regardless of numerous studies exemplifying the constant and seemingly unstoppable decline of literacy and math. Then consider the terms Planed Obscelence, Percived Obscelence and tie that into books to begin with. The education system DWARFS the military industrial complex. Read: Less Than Words Can Say.

    Make note, that doesn't include higher education, and other graphs combine both healthcare and military into one budget and compare that to the education budget which still excludes higher education and their numerous grants through various globalist agencies, which in turn have the say in education, and those figures, military plus healthcare are just a little over the education aspect. Then try not to let that awful fact float the conspiracy moniker.

    Pierre DuPont wrote in 1812 from Education in the United States

    "...that out of every 1,000 persons fewer than four can’t read or do numbers."

      Monopolies promote waste and abuse. Taxation is extortion. A tax-funded monopoly is inherently evil, regardless of the service it provides.

      Corporations supported by government subsidies, bailouts, protectionist regulations, etc. distort the market by denying consumer choice and externalizing their costs. The added burdens on business through regulation, taxation, trade restrictions, etc. harm those at the margins - the small businesses and startups - that would otherwise be able to make headway in the market. This guarantees overpriced, shoddy goods and services too. Corporations are aspects of the State, not market phenomena.

      The Interstate Commerce clause and the Treaty clause in the constitution make all so called limits and enumerated powers laughable. Most federal agencies owe their very existence to those two clauses, which have been stretched and abused to justify anything the federal government decides it wants to do. If a rapist breaks into your home and says “It’s okay because I’m a limited rapist, and here is your sacred paper to protect you. See all the things I’m not allowed to do to you while I rape you?”…if he gives you that list of limitations and you worship that list with gratitude instead of objecting to the entire intrusion including the list, something is deeply wrong. If he repeatedly disregards most of the limitations he swore to abide by while he violates you, and you continue to believe in the sanctity and power of the list…believing it can somehow keep you safe from future violations, after it has been clearly demonstrated to be irrelevant, something is even more wrong.
