John Harris gives us his perspective on what's going on. He describes how we are economic slaves to a debt dependant system, notably achieved through the deception of the birth certificate and the creation of a legal fiction known as your 'PERSON'. It is this PERSON that the government then wields it's control upon. Although John points out that this arrangement only works when we consent.
Unfortunately inaction is taken as consent, hence we have unwittingly surrendered our inalienable rights through identifying with the PERSON. Remember you are a human being with god given rights, all you have to do is claim them.

You can claim whatever you want.
I'm talking about America's school system - - - which sounds exactly the same.
You keep your child out of school - - - you are stealing from the government.

Public school is a privilege. It guarantees a minimal education for every child. Not all countries have this privilege.
Yes, all citizens pay for it with taxes, but if everyone had to pay out of pocket - - many children would not be able to go.
Education is the first key to being a productive citizen. Citizens make up a society. I favor an educated one.
The system to pay for Public school requires a financial plan of what each school costs. Determining cost depends on the number of students. Payment is made only if child is in attendance.
Like I said - - it is what it is.
You got a better plan?

Here we go again.
Schools work on a very tight budget. They are paid only if student is in attendance.
You take your kid out of school - - you are stealing from the government.
You don't want your kid in a government school - - then pay for a private one.
The fact that one person thinks this way just goes to show how hypnotized society is.
It's NOT the school's KID! If parents want to take THEIR KID on a vacay, so be it. Back in the 80's and 90's my parents took me and my sister out of school for two, sometimes three weeks at a time to go to Florida to stay with our grandparents. The school knew ahead of time and we did our work while out of town.
It's absurd that the school then involved the authorities who are now trying to take these people's household belongings to settle the "debt" and that just adds to the total ridiculousness of the situation.
Good grief!
So, you choose to live in Fantasy Land instead of be knowledgeable of how life really is.
Good grief!
While all eyes are on the coalition's NHS reforms, Michael Gove's schools revolution continues apace with little discussion. Some on the left have raised objections to the creation of "free schools" - those new schools set up by groups of parents, teachers, charities and voluntary groups and funded by the Department for Education - and argue that they will lead to a two-tier, socially segregated system.
But it's the rise and rise of academies that is the real cause for concern. Academies are, to all intents and purposes, state-funded independent schools outside local authority control and the National Curriculum, which receive their funding directly from central government. As of March 2012, there were 1,635 academies in England, compared to 24 free schools. Most of them opened their doors from September 2010 onwards, with the blessing and encouragement of coalition ministers. More than 1.2 million pupils - one in seven pupils in state schools - now attend academies. Gove has said that the push to increase the number of academy schools "is not about ideology. It's an evidence-based, practical solution." Really?Here are ten things he and his supporters don't tell you.

By your logic the childless tax payer is robbed by the government. Unreal. Don't like it? Discover common sense.
How do you people come up with this stuff?

Hahaha holy buckets, you sound like you would argue in defense of those corrupt schools that were rorting the score system to achieve a higher overall student achievement, so they could get more funding.

Why does this Annee fella keep banging on about the American system and how wonderful it is and how anything but complete adherence to it is abnormal behaviour that needs stamping on? Is he just trolling or did he really raise three generations in such a dictatorial manner? Or is he just trolling?
We're talking about the English school system, the English tax system, the English judicial system and English court appointed officials.
Stay on topic or start a thread about the subject your dictating about and stop hijacking this one!
The Children and Families Act 2014 imposes certain duties on local authorities (LAs), the administrative areas responsible for the provision of statutory education for England. For special educational needs (SEN), Part 3 of the Children and Families Act replaces duties for children with SEN under the Education Act 1996 and for young people with learning difficulties and disabilities under the Learning and Skills Act 2000. However, the previous legislation will still apply to children with SEN statements until March 2018 and young people with learning difficulties and disabilities until August 2016. The Children and Families Act also places duties with regard to children and young people with disabilities and SEN on other bodies, such as health commissioning bodies.
