The Patriot Post's mission is to advocate for Essential Liberty, the restoration of constitutional limits on government and the judiciary, and to promote free enterprise, national defense and traditional American values. Our objective is to provide Patriots across our nation with a touchstone of First Principles through brief, informative and entertaining analyses of relevant news, policy and opinion from reputable research, advocacy and media organizations, so they may better support and defend those Principles, and enlist others to join our ranks." —Mark Alexander, Publisher

India in GA is right. Parents need to shorten the time their children spend in school - to zero. Performance of home schooled students on standardized tests makes this clear. And don't kid yourself - home schoolers spend far less than seven hours daily doing academic work. To accomplish this, parents must sacrifice income and all the niceties that it brings to be with their kids all day. Most aren't willing to do that, sadly.
