<p>One of the provisions of the new health care insurance legislation that has me privately chuckling is the insertion of language to deal with the financing gap, supposedly closing it by relying on the &#8220;Cadillac tax.&#8221;  This new tax is a 40% assessment on insurance plans with premiums of more than $8,500 for singles and $23,000 for families.</p>
<p>Surely, given the Lexus-styled, taxpayer funded, union demanded, cradle to grave idiotic health plan poured onto the already overpaid and under-worked government hacks masquerading as teachers in Hudson that this tax will hit hard.   </p>
<p>Then again, all you suckers in the Hudson School District who blindly support the asinine government school monopoly deserve what you will obviously get: a nice bump in your property taxes to pay the 40% assessment.</p>

<p>(note, a full audio version (including a brief musical intro) with additional clarification and discussion can be accessed here &#8211; [mp3]http://files.ontheborderline.net/DrDanielson just vote no.mp3[/mp3] ~ 20 minutes with Dr.D..that you will not forget!)</p>
<p>Any system of education that is premised upon, firstly, the sacrifice of individual rights to the collective benefit of &#8220;society&#8221; will not simply reverse its premise and commit suicide down the road &#8211; there is no altruism towards the rights of the individual from the collectivist&#8217;s viewpoint. In fact, individual rights, as envisioned by our founders, is anathema to the collective will, euphemistically referred to as &#8220;the common good.&#8221; To argue that there is a logical funding mechanism to support a virtual government monopoly by simply shifting to either all property tax funding, or all state redistribution of a portion of sales and income tax revenue misses a fundamental point. </p>
<p>Economic educational choice has to be, logically, the first premise and priority. The rights of parents are either primary or they are subordinated, and once subordinated gradually become non-existent over time. Without economic choice as primary you will never get real choice because true choice and ANY government monopoly (regardless of funding source) are logically and practically incompatible. Their ends are justified by their means. And their only means are the restrictions of your liberty with regard to your own children AND the coerced expropriation of your wealth to pay for their ends. The fact that it is done through a so-called democratic process does not make it moral, practical, or in any way optimal as regards the goal of an educated public.</p>
<p><span id="more-4928"></span></p>
<p>Beverly Petrie, the leader of this current gang of looters running amok in Stillwater, is simply clamoring for more self-sacrifice and is engaging in a profound act of hypocrisy. She argues that the system is unjust because the state only contributes 80% and therefore she is &#8220;forced&#8221; to &#8220;work&#8221; 40 to 70 hours per week to propagandize for the passage of a levy which threatens to take yet more money from people at the rhetorical point of a gun. </p>
<p>The active supporters of the Stillwater levy referendum represent a mindset (and a system) which claims to be &#8220;for the children,&#8221; yet is advocating for the one system that is as anti-child as one can get. When you separate children from their parents by law, and then separate parents from their property to pay for it, by law, you are arguing for an immoral act to pay homage to the initial immoral act. And you do so because if people were not coerced into it, they would not voluntarily support it. To justify the madness all sorts and kinds of rationalizations are attempted. In no case do these supporters dare to submit for examination the moral case for their cause, nor do they ever honestly appraise legitimate, rational, alternatives (such as market forces and real parental choice) to the financial black-hole they have created. The reason? Because their moral case is unsustainable, and their cause, ergo, would fail miserably if exposed to such an examination by a candid public. Support of government school monopoly referendums are, profoundly, a savage&#8217;s desire for fruit which he aims to obtain by cutting down the tree. </p>
<p>These people argue that they are supporting the system of &#8220;free education,&#8221; the most incredible contradiction of facts by language imaginable. Everything about government monopolized education is compulsory, inherently inefficient, and profoundly costly, and these people know it but dare not expose it for the horrors it implies. What the voters in Stillwater need to understand is that the questions on the ballot have real meaning, and it is: </p>
<p>1. Should education continue to be compulsory, monopolized, and tax-supported? </p>
<p>2. Should the government be permitted to remove children from their homes by force, with or without the consent of their parents, and subjected to curriculums and training that they may or may not approve? </p>
<p>3. Should hard working citizens have their earnings expropriated by the threat of property conversion, without any recourse, to support an educational program and philosophy which they may or may not sanction? </p>
<p>For any referendum which comes before the citizens as regards additional (any) funding purpose, please understand that the above three questions are the real issues, regardless of what may be printed on the ballot. Please, good people of Stillwater and elsewhere, understand that if you are committed to the principal of individual rights as so profoundly illustrated in America&#8217;s founding documents, the answer to all three is an emphatic NO!</p>
<p>A tax-supported, compulsory educational system is the complete model of the totalitarian state. The only difference, the reason that the full and final implications of such a system are not yet completely realized (although we are getting closer, referendum passed by referendum passed) is that parents are allowed to send their children to private schools or to home school &#8211; although they are still required to financially support the [effective] government educational monopoly. The obscene result is an environment where only the wealthiest among us can afford private schooling for their children. This is not choice in any sense of the real economic meaning of the concept. </p>
<p>When the state assumes financial control over education it becomes self-serving and evident that the state will assume control over what is allowed to be taught, and which values it will promote. When the government thus enters the realm of ideas and the controlling of content thereof over the minds and aspirations of our children and their parents THAT is the death of a truly free society &#8211; is this not precisely what Ms Petrie is petitioning for in the end? Your Yes vote will be your individual sanction of this immoral system and you cannot run or hide from that fact.</p>
<p>Of course, the looter mentality put on display by people of Ms Petrie&#8217;s ilk is stunning but the solution certainly cannot be to support her thesis, nor would I support exclusively taxing private property under the notion that this would cause fundamental change &#8211; the degree of dependency which has arisen would never allow for that to occur. The single solution here is to vote NO as often as possible, and bring the system to its knees until and unless this looter mentality ceases and real economic educational choice is put forth firstly. There can be no compromise with these people, their intransigence is clear and we have allowed them to enjoy it by our unwillingness to stand firm for our own inalienable rights! They have arrested their minds and concluded that the state has sovereignty over the individual in the realm of education. There can be no greater threat to all of our liberty than this, yet few seem to understand this reality. Fewer still willing to take up the fight for individual rights in this arena.</p>
<p>Education must be liberated from the control and intervention of government, and the only way that can happen is to institute real economic educational choice &#8211; market education and direct, real, competition. What needs to be challenged directly, and I believe I have done this implicitly here, is this pernicious and false idea that education is some sort of natural right, a &#8220;free education.&#8221; The powers of statism foster this delusion in order to confuse the issue of whose freedom is really being sacrificed here to pay for this leviathan that actually costs, in the case of the State of Wisconsin, approximately 45% of all revenues (and growing) &#8211; and this does not include local property tax levies! The reality is that there are no such free gifts.</p>
<p>Lastly, I will leave you with a quote from a very strong woman of immeasurable common sense. Isabel Patterson wrote: &#8220;Do you think nobody would willingly entrust his children to you to pay you for teaching them? Why do you have to extort your fees and collect your pupils by compulsion?&#8221;</p>
<p>Why, indeed. My advice to the good people of Stillwater &#8211; JUST VOTE NO.</p>

All they know is that they need more money.  They claim that they are &#8220;out of space&#8221;, yet what does Somerset have?  They not only have All Day Kindergarten, <strong>they have ALL DAY 4-YEAR OLD KINDERGARTEN!</strong>  Instead of looking to remove this daycare service from the curriculum, they simply look to the taxpayers for MORE MONEY.  Sounds alot like Stillwater doesn&#8217;t it?

<p>Boy it didn&#8217;t take Kitty long to show her true colors!  Here come the tax increases.  First Kitty said yes to spending $80 Million MORE than the original increase for PreK-12 and now she has rolled over completely and given the Democrats $500 Million MORE in cigarette taxes!</p>
<p>&#8220;We offered to accept $500 million in new spending with no strings attached, but they said that wasn&#8217;t enough,&#8221; said Rhoades.  </p>
<p>Kitty Rhoades, our hero.  No wonder the local liberals love to put her sign in their yard.

<p><strong><big><em>H</em></big></strong>ave you ever notice how people never talk much about their nightmares. I mean, do you ever hear someone come into work in the morning greeting fellow employees with, &#8220;Boy, did I have one whale of a nightmare last night. It was so bad it scared me awake!&#8221; Well, right now, St. Croix County is having one nasty nightmare, only, they are unable to wake up to end it.</p>
<p>Foreclosures seem to suddenly be catching more people&#8217;s attention lately. The growing number of foreclosures have been appearing in news stories and opinion letters in our local papers. Some of you may remember this issue being brought up by yours truly in a post I made over a year ago called &#8220;<a href="http://www.ontheborderline.net/?p=2559" target="_blank"><em>St. Croix County&#8217;s Yellow Brick Road is Lined with Debris</em></a>&#8221; cautioning the likelihood of things getting much worse. And worse it is &#8211; and getting &#8220;worser&#8221;! (There &#8211; how&#8217;d ya like that word?) </p>
<p>It is clear we are facing a growing nightmare here in St. Croix County. A nightmare caused by a number of factors, but most of which are from people who have thrown caution to the wind by ignoring the basic financial rules of debt management. Regardless what the interest rate is, you can&#8217;t spend yourself rich.</p>
<p>Listed below are 39 homes where I&#8217;m sure the residents aren&#8217;t sleeping too well. Their wake-up call is already scheduled within the next 7 weeks with their nightmare either about to begin or end. And this is just a small number of those yet to have their wake-up call number waiting to be dialed.  <span id="more-4416"></span><br />

<p>If you want to confirm this listing and would like to see if your neighbor is on the list, you can vist the St. Croix County website to verify.  Here is the <a target="_blank" href="http://www.co.saint-croix.wi.us/currentevents.htm#Foreclosure" target="_blank">link</a>.</p>
<p>This list is updated constantly. How many homes have been sold at the hands of the Sheriff so far this year? How many were there last year? How many families have been forced to move away from St. Croix County and how many children will we no longer need to build schools for? </p>
<p>Much of this pain could have been avoided had the lending institutions maintained the 10% downpayment requirement when purchasing a home. As it stands now, not only will the banks suffer huge losses due to the large number of default mortgages, but so will the bedroom communities, like Hudson and surrounding areas, left to deal with the impact of over-valued properties having too low of incomes to support both the debt of their homes pluse the debt of the infrastructure surrounding it.</p>
<p>Now is the time I believe New Richmond needs to come out of its REM sleep and look at their own financial picture. How much money do you have to put down? As a district, if you were going into a bank to borrow $93 million to build a new house, are you able to put down the required 10% right now? $9.3 million is close to the amount of your present local school tax levy. What would be the response if you were to double everyone&#8217;s school tax bill for one year just to raise the 10% needed before going to referendum? </p>
<p>What I find most ironic is how this current schedule of properties being sold by the sheriff totals in value at $7.7 million. This is the amount New Richmond will need to come up with each year to meet the payment requirements of the loan they wish to make.  Inside of 2 months 39 homes will be sold to the highest bidder with all most likely going for at least 20% less than their market value price. And this pace isn&#8217;t going to slow anytime soon. Most of these foreclosures should have taken place late last year, but the judge presiding over these cases has tried to slow these actions by placing a 3 or 6 month redemption period before going to sale. Even with this type of judicial intervention, the law of economics still rules. Too much debt is extremely difficult to recover from &#8211; if able to at all. </p>
<p>It&#8217;s wise to remember, &#8220;When digging your way out of a hole, be prepared to move a lot of dirt.&#8221;</p>

<p>Question:  What is the total number of building permits issued in the ENTIRE St. Croix County for the month of January?  Of course you just had Hudson pass a referendum based on the predictions of tremendous new growth and the New Richmond and St. Croix Central districts are continuing the same banter.  Many of the pro-government school monopoly supporters will be singing the blues when the foreclosures ramp up and these same parents with small children move out of the area as quickly as they moved in.  Don&#8217;t worry though, 4-year old kindergarten will save the day!

		</div>
<p>Several years ago, I wrote a piece about that there is greater testimony to the true nature of circumstances than the actions of the individual or group. The latest actions and words by the Hudson School board and administrators certainly give credence to this thought. </p>
<p>Remember just a few short months ago during the campaign to pass a school referendum, the Superintendent continually talked about the continuing explosive growth in Hudson. Her latest comments in the Pioneer Press about how the district office may opt for portables, which would leave them, wriggle room to move back to the high school if growth flattens out, is testimony that her previous cries about growth were in fact a lie. A lie many of us on this site exposed over a year ago as we continued to track flattening home sales, non-existent new construction, and declining home values. A fact strangely confirmed by the papers after the referendum, though they were well aware of these trends. </p>
<p>It has also been noted that the enrollment at the high school was less in January than it was at the beginning of the school year in September; something that has not happened in many years. There is also strong evidence that next year&#8217;s freshman class will be significantly lower than the current senior class, which means enrollment at the high school will be declining. Additionally it is speculated that kindergarten numbers for next year will greatly lower than projections. We will know about these matters in the near future. However, I believe the Superintendent&#8217;s statements may have already disclosed the validity of what we suspect. </p>
<p>No doubt, I and others have been highly critical of the curriculum and the manner in which it is taught in our local government schools. We have not allowed ourselves to be emotionally duped by the mantra of &#8220;quality education&#8221;. Furthermore, we have emphasized the achievement and cost differences between local private schools and government schools. Years ago, former board member Nancy Donovan gave testimony to the nature of achievement when she stated that the students attending the high school who came from private schools were more advanced than those who attended the K-* government schools. But the students from government education were able to catch up in high school. Of course that was twisting the truth; it wasn&#8217;t so much the government school kids progressing as it was the progress of private school students being halted. <span id="more-4392"></span></p>
<p>If the Hudson School District offers such &#8220;high quality&#8221; education, then why does the district need to hire tutors for the teachers?  I always thought tutors were for those who had problems grasping subject matter concepts. Is the school district telling us that those who are in charge of education students in reading and math are deficient in the necessary skills to do so? Have you ever heard of private schools hiring tutors to help their teachers to teach subject matter? I do not think so! Instead of hiring tutors, private schools would simply find a qualified candidate.  In essence the school district is allowing unqualified personnel with the aid of a tutor to teach your children reading and math. You wonder why Johnny can&#8217;t read or make change. </p>
<p>I found the article and commentary by Mike Rosen concerning the state of Utah and education quite interesting as far as the union&#8217;s response. The union head stated, every child deserves an excellent education, not just those who can get admitted to a private school.&#8221; I wonder if she realizes how self-contradictory that statement is. She&#8217;s acknowledging that private schools provide educational excellence and that kids who are stuck in government schools are denied that! Does she suppose that wealthy parents who pay a premium to send their kids to private schools (without &#8220;a shred of evidence that they help students learn&#8221;) are stupid? </p>
<p>What can we conclude from all of this? Simply, it is not about education! It is about protecting the monopoly we call public education. It is about spending more for pensions and healthcare for which teachers and administrators pay minuscule amounts.  In the end, it is about stealing the wealth of others and robbing the intellectual capabilities of today&#8217;s youth.  </p>
