| Summary, etc. | Welcome to the "little edition" of the "big book"--the deliberate dumbing down of america: A Chronological Paper Trail. Since the original publication of the 743-page, 8-1/2"x11" tome, readers have requested a smaller, lighter version. This new version is in response to those many requests. The afterword, glossary, resources, appendices and index have all been removed from the 2011 version. Of utmost importance is the addition of "Update" which covers the final, but long-planned, institutionalization, since publication of the original book in 1999, of three activities, relatively new to the reader: (1) the use of unconstitutional tax-supported (public/private partnership) charter schools run by unelected boards. These schools use non-graded Skinnerian computer instruction to train for the planned economy (school to work); (2) global values-changing education, including International Baccalaureate programs and (3) restructuring of our nation's representative governmental structure, using regionalism (socialism) with its unelected councils (soviets), and communitarianism. |
