Big Brother Wants to own Your Child

Vin Suprynowicz reports:

"That biological parents are the enemies of their offspring"

A Dec. 31 Las Vegas Review-Journal editorial detailed some of the $7 billion in spending the members of the 2007 Nevada Legislature have already proposed – all while earnestly bleating that no tax hikes will be required.

"Atop the list," we noted, "is a mandatory program to round up all of Nevada’s children and lock them away from the subversive influence of their biological parents in day-long, tax-funded baby-sitting centers, not at the age of 6 (which is bad enough), but at the age of 5."

A well-intentioned soul objected that the "references to all-day kindergarten in Sunday’s lead editorial are so sarcastic that few readers will give them credence."

But no sarcasm was intended.
