Just a couple of generations ago, all school children, no matter their age, put their hand over their heart, faced the American flag and recited the Pledge of Allegiance, which guarantees “liberty for all,” every morning. Back then, all teenagers had to memorize the preamble of the Constitution in their Civics class, ending in the goal to “secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity,” which establishes liberty as America’s foundation. Students were also taught about personal responsibility, an integral component of American liberty. in their homes, school & church. As a nation, we established these customs because liberty is not the natural human condition while authoritarianism is. Liberty expects people to make decisions for themselves, not wait for elites to tell them what to do, which is rare in human history; possibly only America ever experienced it. Without propaganda; without indoctrination of children, without knowing the Pledge & Preamble to instill it in our youth, liberty cannot continue or even exist; which if you look at today’s education curriculum, explains its demise.
