Family Research Council comes out against letting all kids go to preschool, it's atheist-socialist

The Family Research Council is very upset about Democratic efforts to invest in early education, and is particularly peeved that Nancy Pelosi suggested that preschool “frees parents to earn without carrying the burden of childcare.”

On yesterday’s edition of Washington Watch, the FRC’s Tony Perkins and Anna Higgins FRC discussed the supposed dangers of universal pre-K. The two falsely claimed that such plans would compel parents to put their kids into preschool, which they argued would undermine family structures, particularly the role of women in the family.

“We know that this is the opposite of supporting families,” Higgins said of preschool. “Nothing good can come of regulating familial responsibility to the government. It seems to be the running theme of liberals and pro-abortion feminists that it’s children that are holding women back from actually succeeding in society and in the workforce.”

Perkins claimed that universal pre-k is “part of socialism” and “government indoctrination from the cradle to the grave.” “The USSR had lots of universal care for children and the reasoning behind that was so that they could instill atheism in the children,” Higgins added.

Pelosi needs to strengthen regulations against cannibalism.

I just got a job. I start Monday.

I signed my kid up for the Wakeman club after school. it's run by the Boys and Girls Club. For $70 in registration fees and $180 in program fees, they will bus my kid from school to their facility and watch him until as late as 6:30. This runs until August.

Pennies per hour.

This enables me to work overtime, making a buttload of money that I will then be taxed on and spend in the economy.

Yay socialism!
