Stupid Liberalism

Geesh:

Talk about parental responsibility. The California Senate just passed a bill that could send parents to jail for up to a year if their kids — from kindergarten through eighth grade — miss too much school…

…The bill is the brainchild of San Francisco District Attorney Kamala Harris, who is seeking the Democratic nomination for attorney general…

The theory, such as it is, goes that since a high proportion of criminals are high school drop outs it is a matter of public safety to keep kids in school until they get a high school diploma. Such is what passes for thought in liberalism.

Never occurs to these idiots that if a child has a poor home life which is allowing him the opportunity to miss a lot of school that putting his parents in jail might not be the optimal solution. But it does allow liberals to pretend they are doing while at the same time increasing the role of the State in the family…for liberals, its a win/win.

For rationality, its a bit of a loss.
