Republican representative Marjorie Taylor green.
Doesn't understand how public education works here in the United States.
And that is probably one of the least surprising things I've ever had to say that Marjorie
Taylor green doesn't understand something.
Uh, but here's what happened during his address to the joint session of Congress on Wednesday
evening, Joe Biden laid out his plan to provide a free pre-K through two years, community
college for American citizens.
So basically from the time you're were about four years old to up to 20 years old, education's
free here in the United States, which by the way is almost the system we have in place.
Now, Marjorie Taylor green doesn't understand that she tweeted out the following after the
address, she said federally funded school from age three to 20 doesn't sound like education.
It sounds like indoctrination all at your expense by force in the form of taxes.
Oh dear God.
Do people hear that?
We may have to use our tax dollars to, to pay for education here in the United States,
suddenly all because of Joe Biden, that's literally never happened before, right?
Marjorie Taylor green.
No, actually it has that, that that's the current system we have in place.
And in fact, a lot of States I know we do here in the state of Florida.
We, we actually, uh, the state even Republican controlled gives us free pre-K for, for our
children.
That's subsidized here in the state of Florida.
So we actually don't have to pay for that.
The only thing we don't get is the two years of free community college.
Uh, so that would be the only change in this plan, not just here in Florida, but in a lot
of States that also provide subsidies or free pre-K education for children, because K through
12 at public schools across the country has always been free.
Okay.
We're literally talking about adding a total of three years, maybe in some cases, four,
depending on the kid's age and how the pre-K breaks down.
Um, so basically three years additional to what we're already paying K through 12 would
become pre-K through AA degree.
That's, that's what we're talking about here.
And again, it's only like this much different than what we're already doing, and it's not
indoctrination it's it's education.
If you believe that educating children that teaching them science and history and math
is indoctrinating them into liberal values, then you need to reevaluate where your party
stands on basic intelligence, because I'd assume that's somewhere.
You don't want to stand.
This is a good plan.
It could be much better, right?
I mean, we need things like universal childcare, not just pre-K childcare.
We need universal publicly funded college, not just two years of community college, four
years at a public university.
That's what should be happening.
Education should not come at an expense unless you want to go forward and get a specialized
advanced degree.
Sure.
You know, that's what makes those a little harder to get for some people.
But I think we also need to increase the grant programs and scholarship programs so that
more people who would easily be able to master a master's degree or perhaps go to law school
or get a PhD so that it would be easier for them to do so that shouldn't just be the rich
or people who are able to get student loans that they know they can pay off that should
get these advanced degrees.
But that's a conversation for another day.
The point here is that Marjorie Taylor Green's tweet shows that she doesn't know how public
education works here in the United States, or she thinks her followers are so stupid
that they don't know how public education works here in the United States.
And I'm willing to bet it's a combination of the two I'm willing to bet that she absolutely
was unaware of how this system works.
And even more of her followers also have no idea
How it works too.
