This is Why Parents Are Fleeing Public Schools: NYC Teacher Calls for Seizing Businesses

Sigh. If you ever wonder why so many parents are choosing different options than public schools for their children's education, this interview is a good example. This person talking in the interview is a New York school teacher.

A NYC school teacher has a GREAT idea for billionaires leaving New York. 🤣🙄

He suggests that if the billion dollar companies leave then the regular folks should just take over their businesses.

Basically, he says millionaires should not be allowed to leave New York. He doesn't believe they should be allowed to move their businesses to more economically friendly states like Florida. He believes the state should take over the businesses and then fine the owners. That kind of sounds like the government owns the means of production and that's Communism. Maybe rethink leaving your children with people like this for hours per day.

We are rapidly passing the point of civic engagement and sharing a country with vast swaths of left wing citizens. They have moved so far past the point of reality or basic understanding of how things function that nearly all of their political aims are riddled with catastrophic… https://t.co/FEz9rk5d3W

So at what point does our civic compact stop working? One of our two political parties is in-thrall to a voting base that is so wildly ignorant and emotional that they essentially are voting for civilizational suicide. The country can be shared by two opposing political parties when both of them genuinely and mutually agree on fundamental reality, but that is likely not possible when one party has gone totally off-the-rails with extremist policy positions that are obviously going to lead to ruin. I do not think our Constitution has the ability to remedy this situation.

It's getting very difficult to see how the two sides can continue to live side by side in this country. One side wants liberty and limited government. The other wants government involved in every facet of life and there is no way for those two philosophies to coexist.

We basically do not have a country anymore, it's some kind of collapsing empire. I am hoping for pockets of sanity.

As are most people. That's why there is an exodus to Florida.

This is just an idea but I think it has some merit…why don’t we put a wall or fence around New York City. That way we can man it and make sure that the business owners can’t leave? Bam problem solved.. https://t.co/mnHgrsVkUy

Works for North Korea, I suppose.
