Collective intelligence? Really? Can that even be quantified? Talk about speaking in terms of the abstract.

Local property taxes pay for local schools,....with the exception of fed dollars being injected at the behest of the utter failure named the Department of Edumacation. If those local folks want to teach their kids that Jesus was a dinosaur cowboy then more power to 'em.

If not then where does the incursion stop? Does the fed have the right to limit what I discuss with my kids at dinner?
