1) American compulsory education is as wrong as slavery was wrong and goes against everything this country was founded upon; FREEDOM.
2) American compulsory education was never intended to simply educate. It would not be compulsory otherwise.
3) Compulsory education pits students who want to be there against students who do not- a systemic problem. Teaching through this dichotomy is almost impossible. Learning through such dichotomy is difficult and produces psychological damage including deep resentment.
4) Ending compulsory education will simultaneously end bullying. If not for compulsory education, we would probably have no terms such as nerds and geeks.
5) Ending compulsory education will end school shootings and planned killings. Lives could have been saved if not for compulsory education and lives will be saved without it. Millions upon millions of dollars on security will also be saved as well as other benefits.
The war here is not against public education. The petition does not seek to do away with public schools. The petition seeks to decriminalize attendance on a federal level. At every age students would be free to attend or not. As authorities seek to monitor our lives, it is proposed here that some type of yearly educational test or check-in would satisfy the needs of big brother.
Tell the federal government to decriminalize public education attendance for the principles upon which this country was founded and be a true leader of the free world. Tell the federal government to stop creating monsters and release the genius in American humanity. Tell the federal government of the United States of America to stop killing the minds of our country and set our children free from compulsory education!
