Statement of Principles


Nevada government keeps getting bigger and BIGGER. We deserve minimum, strictly limited, constitutional government in this State.

Forget all this blather about a $3B "shortfall". The budget for the '12/'13 biennium should be no more than $200M.

Public Education: Quo Vadis?

Originally posted in a LVRJ Forum

John Jasonek, executive director of the CCEA said: We support any reasonable means [whatever it takes] to bring reasonable funding to education in Nevada

The legislature should vote out of existence every CCSD school except the constitutional minimum. That's one, by the way. This would be a very reasonable way to achieve adequate public education funding levels.

Public education is a disaster. Who can deny this? 300,000+ students are being ruined each year. Most students learn nothing. Good students receive McEducation. Yet the only solution we ever hear about is "more money" (as much as possible). This benefits the CCEA, a special interest group that donates heavily to Democrats, and large contractors, who give to the GOP. It does ZERO for the kids.

If you believe that all children deserve an education then please stop thinking that public education is the correct approach. It's just another government political-payoff spending program that hurts those it purports to help. You might as well support a government nutrition program that serves foodstuffs out of the compost heap, or a government liberation program that kills you to set you free.
