Discussion

So why did I put these two quotes up last night?

For inspiration.

The first is to keep the deep purpose of a sudbury style education in mind-raising responsible effective adults in a democratic society. JC- "to purify its morals" school meeting- "to substitute a knowledge of statecraft for inexperience" the freedom to learn-"an awareness of its true interest for its blind instincts"

The second is to never despair when it seems like corporations have taken over everything. I think that's why this election is so important. It's like the electorate is waking up to what they really want from their country. It's terrible to think of democracy, "the vanquisher of kings", being subverted by a bunch of empty suits.
