Abolish the Department of Education

Why Is This Idea Important?: Education system in this nation has failed. The one room school house was much more effective then the modern failed system. Return to local control as the framers of the constitution intended.

Education needs to be moved back to the states where it belongs. The top down method of the federal department of education only adds many layers of bureaucrats.

  1. Getting rid of the federal government involvement in education would also help to minimize the problems caused by the teachers unions.

  2. I am still waiting for someone to show me where the Constitution allows a DOE, in the first place.

  3. Good idea.

    Except that we have so many other problems right now, it's hard to get excited about another one.

    Ya gotta pick your battles.

    Then again, when it all hits the fan... If the whole thing really does collapse and we need to restructure, maybe we can forget to recreate the DOE. And the FDA. And the IRS. And the imperial presidency. And a million other programs.
