Unfortunately, I think you're absolutely correct. We've lost our education system long ago. Few people bother with teaching their kids anything as far as American Values, and the schools are nearly forbidden to teach them.
Kids are more indoctrinated than taught, even to the point where obeying the government is more important than obeying their parents. We're not far off from where the kids will be reporting on their parents.
I see no way of turning it around short of a civil war. I pray to God that our government can be turned around and the country I love can be salvaged from the leftist without gunfire, but I don't believe it can be.
