[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This piece has nothing to do with liberalism.  I'm as liberal as they come and i think its nut.  You can't pin a political label on something that is based on no research and no coherent thought.[/quote]

Progressive liberalism is based on this type of utopia - sacrificing for the common good.  It's hitting home because now it's personal. [/quote]

Nope, it doesn't hit home because there is no "it."  This piece literally makes no sense.  She has no idea if the public school system would flourish if everyone was there, or whether it would be completely unsustainable to have so many students.  I have to believe that economists have looked at this.  She could do a google search and make some calls.

This particular write has a history of these kinds of bombastic pieces.  Clearly, she just wants to get a rise out of people.  If she actually wanted to persuade she would have put some effort into this.

[b]Hay, PP, isn't military service sacrificing for the common good?  Ae you against that?[/b][/quote]

I believe it's covered in the Constitution. When you find me the amendment about the right to a public education, let me know.[/quote]

Huh?  The constitution doesn't require a draft.  All it talks about is funding and commanding an army.  You don't have a right to serve.  You are not require to served.  The men and women in our military have volunteered.  They are sacrificing for the common good.  When you make ridiculous sweeping statements about how sacrificing for the common good is somehow wrong you just sound ridiculous.  Maybe you're an objectivist but I doubt you are so pure as to oppose all altruism.

There's nothing in the constitution saying kids have a right not to work in sweat shops for 12 hours a day.  We also have laws.[/quote]
