Will Forces From Within Bring About The Demise of America?

By James Shott ~ May 8, 2018

In this time when virtually all our standards and traditions are falling away or being scrapped, we should be concerned about what America will look like in another generation. Will America even be recognizable?

School-age kids aren’t being taught to write or read cursive. Like the kids in the UK, 80 percent of Oklahoma kids six to 12 years old also are having trouble telling time on an analog clock.

Much of public education seems to be in a crisis.

Columnist and economics professor Walter Williams wrote recently about the 2017 National Assessment of Educational Progress, which is often referred to as “The Nation’s Report Card,” showing disturbing results: “Only 37 percent of 12th-graders tested proficient or better in reading, and only 25 percent did so in math.”

He went on to report that America’s high school graduation rate is over 80 percent, which indicates that graduates’ math and reading sk**ls are at a 12th-grade level. How can that be, he asks, when 63 percent are not proficient in reading and 75 percent are not proficient in math?

Combine that with the changes to the curriculum, where many schools no longer teach civics or properly emphasize American history, and we appear to be deliberately creating a generation of young people who are seriously undereducated — particularly about their country.

College once was a place where young people went to advance their education, prepare for their future work life, and evolve from a teenager into a mature adult. Now many campuses are places where free speech, once strongly emphasized on campuses, is dead or dying, and instead of learning to cope with adverse realities they are provided protection from them.

The successful imposition of political correctness and the over-the-top behavior of some people to push political correctness on the public have turned things upside-down. This may pose one of the most serious social problems we will face, as so many people want to magnify tiny little “discomforts” into earth-shattering events and condemn those who are responsible for these minor “offenses” to a living hell.

Among the abundant examples of this silliness is the recent episode where an American high school girl chose as her attire for the high school prom a dress with a Chinese theme. The PC police quickly hopped aboard the Knee-Jerk Band Wagon to label her a “r****t” and scream that she was guilty of “cultural appropriation.”

The young lady brushed off the nutty criticism, and the Chinese reacted positively to her. But the PC crowd apparently believes that only Asians can enjoy sushi and only Italians can order spaghetti or go to Pasquale's’ restaurant.

The profound goofiness of such ideas apparently escapes the understanding of the disciples of political correctness. Many of these folks are from the younger generations, thus this way of thinking does not bode well for America’s future unless they experience an intellectual renaissance.

America — the land of the free, a place where government was designed to serve the people — now has important agencies like the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) straying from their constitutional roles and being run by people who are motivated by narrow political goals rather than their sworn duty to honorably serve Americans.

IRS employee Lois Lerner delayed applications and hassled applicants for nonprofit status because they were conservative organizations. FBI agent Peter Strozk and his lover, agency attorney Lisa Page, used FBI email for partisan messages against Donald Trump’s candidacy. And then we have former FBI Director Jim Comey and former Deputy Director Andrew McCabe and their numerous misdeeds. The list goes on.

The now-notorious and fraudulent Trump dossier was used as evidence to get a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA) warrant against Trump officials Carter Page and Michael Flynn. And the FBI and Department of Justice are withholding documents legally subpoenaed by a congressional committee with oversight authority.

Special Counsel Robert Mueller’s investigation to find a crime in the Trump campaign in the 2016 e******n had cost taxpayers nearly $7 million as of last December, producing only meager results thus far.

One year on, two people associated with Trump have been charged: former campaign chief Paul Manafort over alleged bank fraud many years ago and former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn for lying to the FBI after agency officials said that he was not suspected of lying. Flynn pled guilty to the charge, apparently to end the crippling legal fees that drove him to near bankruptcy.

And then there’s the $20 trillion national debt — $62,500 per American — that threatens the nation’s future and that no one seems serious about reducing.

Young people who are inadequately prepared through their education to understand America and the realities of life, and people both inside and outside the government and in the news media who are willing and eager to c***t to achieve their political goals, may bring about the demise of the country.

Are Abraham Lincoln’s words coming true? “America will never be destroyed from the outside. If we falter and lose our freedoms, it will be because we destroyed ourselves.”

Math, your bill is $1.63 and you want 2 Quarters in change.
You give them $2.13 and they want to return the 13 cents.
Then you tell them to give back 2 quarters, out comes the calculator.
No lessons on how to function in real life.
Thanks to liberal teaching.
