A Most Impractical Guide To Small Government

   That's why universal instruction in critical thinking techniques in public schools is so critical.   Given the powerful interests arrayed against revolutionary thought, we can expect a long conflict on the battleground of curricula.   But the stakes are high, and the rewards could be enormous.   We need to begin immediately, vigorously advocating -   demanding -- universal instruction in critical thinking techniques.   Years may pass before we accomplish this, and generations may pass before critical thinking becomes, once again, a national value.
