You do realize that every time you claim something is a right on the other hand you are placing an obligation upon the people who have to fulfill that right.

I am not allowed to you obligating me further and further into service of the government? Isnt that one of my rights?

if voting is a right then I need the ability to read the ballot and what I'm voting for. A basic education will solve that.

By that argument you nee a car, a house, a stipend and every other thing in the world because voting is a right.

Our constitution is based on limiting government, not limiting people. It is based on freedom, not servitude of some for others benefit. But it has been twisted completely around and now the government can tax an individual to give money to another individual and it was never meant to be that way.

The bill of rights is protection from the government, not a grab bag of goodies for being born American...

I am not sure we need public schools like I am not sure we need the post office.

We do need a mechanism to teach children and I agree that society spending money on the PRIVILEDGE is a good idea. Again, there are things I agree with regarding taxes. But the current system isnt teaching all kids, in fact it is failing many of them.

Now that we have the internet, teaching and classrooms can radically change and not be about location or time but be about classes and much more focused teaching with the proper software and guidance.
