Common Core in Education and The Lucifer Effect
Posted by overmanwarrior 12 years, 1 month ago to Culture
I hate that some of this sounds like conspiracy theory stuff, but the video at the end covering The Lucifer Effect is very detailed and interesting. Common Core in public education is a complicated problem that is just too big to get minds around unless context is given. The Lucifer Effect gives some science to the reason collectivism is evil. It proves in science validity to much of what Ayn Rand covers in the philosophy of Objectivism.
In short, Common Core in public education is the modern 1920 Purge in Petrograd that Ayn Rand covered in her novel, We The Living. Yet it's here right now and does not appear to be able to be stopped. The money is already there.

The bastard communists are everywhere and I'm not kidding. At this point, I'm thinking I'm going to pull my youngest (10th grade) from pubic school and finish out the school at a Catholic academy. No Common Core there!
The scary thing is, this program will effectively REMOVE the U.S. from the international arena because no Nation in their right mind will hire or want to do business with us because the citizenry will be dumbed down. If left unchecked, 20 years from now, our colleges and universities will be laughing stock by every nation overseas.
For those who have kids, you better heed Glenn Becks advice and start considering your options.
Kids today are already half way there. When its cool to be stupid, we have a BIG problem, and it is. Common Core will make things much, much worse.
Good luck with your 10th grader. But it sounds like you're already taking care of the problem as a parent. Just a little interest in a child's life goes a long way to saving them from the government blob.
