It's not something you might expect to hear from a school principal, but Jeffrey Wick of Bowling Green, Virginia, says the public school system is helping to destroy the country's foundation.
Wick is now offering his thoughts in his new book Public Education: The Final Solution in the Conquest of America's Ideals.
"I think we're at a state in our country where we are on that precipice, as a lot of us believe, and part of the reason we're in this problem is what the public schools do," says Wick. "It's not necessarily what the teachers are doing, but it's the philosophy that's guiding the system."
Wick's desire is to encourage the nation to return to its greatness -- "which is its Christian foundation, freedom that we were founded upon, sacrifice, hard work, rugged individualism and all those traits that our founders based our Constitution and our nation upon," he explains.
Wick says in order for the U.S. to be transformed from the great country that it is into a socialistic type of nation where people are dependent on government, the family, the Christian faith, and patriotism have to be attacked.
"As the first two are destroyed, that creates a void," the principal says, "and I think the government steps in and tries to take that role. They try to become parent, the school system is encouraged to be the center of the community, to provide all of these services."
