Yep. I am here in NH. I was a Freestate mover and have been known to have beer with these guys. Yep. They really do believe in low taxes and capitalism. If you think that is just propaganda and something you are against, why would you care about controlling (or putting a stop to) what the government is doing?
Its not anything new, its called the constitution. It was designed for LIMITED GOVERNMENT.
Everyone loves to hate the big guys. MS and Walmart are some of our best companies and we continually whine and beat the crap out of them.
MS is far from perfect, but its the best desktop available in the world (Yes, I run Ubuntu at home, but not my important machine).
Linux is almost there but is chasing the taillights of MS. Linux has a superior architecture, but just isn't usable enough to put in a business without a full time linux geek.
The whole PC industry is what it is becuase of MS. No they didn't invent it, but THEY MADE IT HAPPEN.
Give them some credit and stop piling on with the sheep.
HomeSchool groups are easy to find. There are whole organizations of them. They are the ones knocking the top out of all the competitions (spelling bees, debates, etc). When I lived in Charlotte, NC, there were 1500 families homeschooling. My Homeschool kid is now self learning programming and is jazzed about game programming because of a product called blitz basic.
Art was right. Homeschool kids are motivated and will/can make it successful.
Less barriers, too. No school heirarchy to get thier toes stepped on. I tried to volunteer to teach the kids at public school. The let me teach the teachers. Wow, what an eye-opener. I set them up with email and taught email ettiquite. Afterwards, they sent me porn via open cc. Gee, I'm impressed.
