Keeping Them Stupid
Continuing its erosion of personal freedoms, they are actually trying to make it a crime to home school kids in the PRC. They don't want to take a chance that some kiddies may reach adulthood without the proper indoctrination from the government brainwashers. If the PRC rulers get their way, any parents who actually want their children to receive a decent education will lose custody of those children. If this doesn't sound like Communist countries, I don't know what does.
In the small world category, the power mad California Superintendent of Public Instruction, Delaine Eastin, actually started her left-wing political career on the City Council of Union City, CA while I was living there in the 1980s. She was originally an analyst with Pacific Bell; but fell in love with running the lives of other people and controlling what all children are allowed & forced to learn.
