I don't know what NCLB means. But I do know that most people do not have a ghost of a chance as to acting upon the world in their own behalf because the most important things to know in life are suppressed, particularly as to pertinent game changing information.
I also know that it is almost impossible to disabuse people of what they think they know by bringing to light what they don't know, and therefore what they have never considered. And in the world of politically ordered chaos it is Out of Sight, Out of Mind which rules supreme in the body politic. The system is design on purpose to achieve this Alice in Wonderland effect of never knowing the true basis of one existence.
What is even more depressing is that because we learn in bits and pieces of information stretched out over many years, the tipped over apple cart of mis-education cannot readily be corrected in just a few fell sentences. And thus better and more proper knowledge, that which takes decades to understand never stands a chance of ever being implemented.
Having studied the General Assembly of Virginia in a stretch of four to five years intensely, and as to the above, I have determined for myself that those who are 'elected' are as clueless as the rest of the population. And that is the overwhelming most of them. Why is this? It is because that they too were mis-educated within the same system of mis-education as the rest of us. And again, Out of Sight, Out of Mind thus rules supreme in most of the 'ruling class'.
The Western World, the world I know the most about, is one giant cattle herding operation. And the Eastern saying of 'he who knows doesn't say' applies as to those who rule from behind the curtain. And even they the Supreme Ruling Class of the tiny fraction of a fraction of less than once percent, I suspect that they too are horribly very wrong footed in their intellectual organization.
NCLB is No Child Left Behind, Bush Jr’s initiative to set national K-12 academic standards. Eventually, Obama’s Race to the Top gutted game changing information from math, English, social studies, and civics classrooms. At the same time, it imprinted at least two generations with woke history and trash science. Too bad Indoctrination doesn’t come with instructions on how indoctrination works and how to escape it.
We let the powers take the Ten Commandments off campus and the Bible out of kids’ literature. We pretended there is no God and indoctrinated a generation of teachers who are now indoctrinating the next. History tells us the cycle is about as low as it can get, but the upswing is beginning. We witnessed a miracle at the polls, and Obama is incensed. Each of us helped make that happen, and we need to keep pushing. I imagine things will get uglier, but they’ve already made and keep making fatal mistakes.
History does show that every cross section of humanity contains good, mediocre, and rotten people. Our government literally represents that. I figure our representatives have more high-priced temptations than most of us, and therefore shorter shelf lives. We need to be better people, and our representatives need to be refreshed more often.
Thank you. Nicely put. My only possible ground for pause is that things could go much, much worse should the forces of trending reversal fail to cut mustard. And so, the next four years are make or break. But if the next four years are just a cosmetic rejiggering of an already failed system, then the only reasonable expectation would be an Indian Summer interlude along what has been a long incline of slide.
I just watched this from Tucker Carlson on the devolution of California. And it confirms about what I had suspected all along. I am sure you will draw the proper conclusions possible in going beyond the material presented.
Slick observations. In that light, it's obvious to anybody who learned how to read pre-NCLB.

That's a clear-eyed glimpse of reality. Make or break into a long slide is probably putting it mildly.
