On Tuesday, in a sweeping 5–4 decision, the Supreme Court forced a majority of states to fund private religious schools in a ruling that compels millions of U.S. taxpayers to subsidize Christian education—even if financing another religion violates their own beliefs.

But its OK to compel millions of taxpayers to subsidize abortion - even if it violates their own beliefs.

ALL public school should go away. Your kid, your responsibility.

Lots of 'conservatives' don't buy into parents being responsible for THEIR children. It's funny to see and another example of why we are so [bleep].

Took the words right outta my mouth. We are going to pay dearly for that down the road.

I mostly agree. Public schools with their “free two meals a day” are really more of a glorified daycare and taxpayer redistribution scheme than they are a learning center. There’s almost no civics, western history, or American history being taught. About the only thing worthwhile being taught are the hard sciences and reading/writing. It doesn’t take 12 years of schooling to lean algebra and how to read/write. Most of the rest of it is leftist propaganda and glorified daycare to send mom and dad or “single mom” off to work.

You and I may be the only two Americans left who believe this. I’m glad you posted it so I no longer think I’m the only one. You should no more pay for my kids’ education than you should for their vehicles, clothes, or healthcare.

If you are raising children in a place that the public education system is BS, then move to where it is not.
Super happy with our district, and the teachers and PTO.
YMMV.

Ours is better than average. I just don’t think you have any responsibility to pay for my kids’ education.

Sending children to public school is tantamount to child abuse. The state of government education is the reason we’re dealing with all the BS we’re seeing today

Hell, I'm glad they don't teach history. "Lincoln killed the evil slavers and freed the slaves." "Thomas Jefferson was a racist." "The US was started by a bunch of rich slave owners who didn't want to pay their taxes." "We should apologize to the Japs for bombing them." On and on.

Just like daddy Bush laughed when JFK's assassination was brought up. He's probably not laughing right now as he's roasting and the devil's poking him in the ass with that pitchfork.

The linked article was written by a Liberal calling this SC ruling a Conservative victory. The author is butt-hurt because now they can't force LGBTQ ideology down private charter school children like they do in public schools.

Quote
The upshot: Taxpayers in most of the country will soon start funding overtly religious education—including the indoctrination of children into a faith that might clash with their own conscience. For example, multiple schools that participate in Montana’s scholarship program inculcate students with a virulent anti-LGBTQ ideology that compares homosexuality to bestiality and incest.


Not sure yet what to make of this. Never gave it a thought until now. All my kids are way past school age.

Re-elect The Donald and we'll have at least one, maybe two more conservative Justices.

Then, Roberts can play to the Swamp grandstand all he wants, the vote will be there.

Once the vote is there, he'll probably go along with the majority.

He's more of a political weather vane than a true Justice.
