By Peter West, published 25/6/2015

An end, please, to these wacky ideas for wiping the slate clean and starting all over.

No I'm not!

(I'm tempted to leave it there, just contradicting you, but I think I'd better add that once you understand why I'm not contradicting myself, you might begin to understand the issue).

Rhrosty,

No answer? Can't back up your ideas? Not quite ready to be treasurer yet?

Aidan, you can't even bring yourself to admit that the compulsory funding, compulsory curriculum, compulsory attendance, and compulsory teacher qualifications involve any compulsion, remember?

And I suppose you deny that the Board of Studies sets the curriculum, are you?

So are we talking about something that's compulsory, or not?

Also, if the purpose if to promote education, why do you discriminate between citizens of Australia and everyone else?

Jardine, it wasn't me who was against all compulsion of any kind. I think it was Yuyutsu.

You're also wrong in assuming I support discrimination based on citizenship status.

Okay, so the policy you support is to provide education for everyone in the world? Or all the children in the world without discrimination?

What are the answers to my questions?

The policy you support is to provide education for everyone in the world? Yes? No? Or all the children in the world without discrimination? Yes? No?

You can see now that you're contradicting yourself, can't you? Why don't you admit it?

Now. Do you support the use of compulsion for purposes of forcing people to pay for and attend your sausage-factory indoctrination of children, or not?
