All school districts receive funds from the federal government through the Department of Education to support anti-drug education efforts.

I'm on Governor Gray Davis' California Alliance Towards Education to bring the arts back to high schools.

When the state or federal government control the education of all of our children they have the dangerous and illegitimate monopoly to control and influence the thought process of our citizens.

Universal suffrage should rest upon universal education. To this end liberal and permanent provision should be made for the support of free schools by the State governments and if need be supplemented by legitimate aid from national authority.

Today education is perhaps the most important function of state and local governments.

But instead of standing up for reason our government is handing education over to the world of faith.

We have over 500 000 illegal immigrants living in Arizona. And we simply cannot sustain it. It costs us a tremendous amount of money of course in health care in education and then on top of it all in incarceration. And the federal government doesn't reimburse us on any of these things.

The five different areas in which boys are in crisis - education jobs emotional health physical health and fatherlessness - are handled by different portions of the government.

The government has convinced parents that at some point it's no longer their responsibility.

I don't imagine Heads of Government would ever be able to say I'm not an economist therefore I can't take decisions on matters of the economy I'm not a soldier I can't take decisions on matters of defence I'm not an educationist so I can't take decisions about education.

The first duty of government is to see that people have food fuel and clothes. The second that they have means of moral and intellectual education.

No group and no government can properly prescribe precisely what should constitute the body of knowledge with which true education is concerned.

Anyone who knows history particularly the history of Europe will I think recognize that the domination of education or of government by any one particular religious faith is never a happy arrangement for the people.

An educated people can be easily governed.
