“Public Schools, Public Menace: How Public Schools Lie to Parents and Betray Our Children” (2005)
The Scary Facts Every Parent Ought to Know (But Most Don't) About Public Schools Why are public schools so bad? How do we fix them? Wrong question, says education policy analyst Joel Turtel — who believes that America's public schools are broken beyond repair. In his book, "Public Schools, Public Menace," Turtel argues that public schools, because they are government-run monopolies, cannot give our children the great education they need and deserve. Parents will learn shocking facts about public schools: * How public schools can cripple children's ability to read and their self-esteem, leaving children unprepared and vulnerable to face the world as adults. * Why children who struggle with reading are more likely to drop out of high school, end up in the criminal justice system, and live in poverty. In other words, public schools can destroy your child’s life. * That parents are deceived into thinking their kids are getting a decent education, when in fact, many schools dumb-down the curriculum and requirements to graduate high school, to protect the jobs of school bureaucrats and employees. * Ways that public schools indoctrinate children with anti-parent, anti-Judeo-Christian, and anti-American values. * How public schools have become disgusting sex-education smut peddlers. * Why public schools now “encourage” parents to give their bored, alleged "troubled," "disruptive," or "ADHD" children mind-altering drugs. * How public schools hurt children's self-esteem, love of learning, and chance to get into college. * . . . and many more disturbing revelations supported by pages of facts and studies.
“The Welfare State: No Mercy For The Middle Class” (1996)
Wouldn't it be great if we never had to pay income taxes or social security taxes again? What if we could keep every cent we earn from our paycheck, giving government not a penny of our hard-earned money? This is all possible, but only if and when we totally dismantle the welfare state. You see, the welfare state means big governement, and big government is a tax-hog that eats your earnings. John McKay, in his book "The Welfare State: No Mercy For The Middle Class," explains how we are being ripped off by the welfare state. He examines the central ideas that are used to justify the welfare state, and shows why these ideas are false and evil. The author explains why, even in the midst of a seeming economic boom, most families find it hard to keep their heads above water. He explains how welfare-state regulations sharply increase the price of everything we buy, and progressive income taxes loot almost 40% of our paychecks. He shows how this government- created pincer is strangling the average American's standard of living and his children's future. He reveals how taxes and regulations make houses, health care, and college educations for our children unaffordable to millions of Americans.
