I'm not sure if the Intelligent Design case was handled by a state supreme court or a federal court, but that may fall, too? Bets on what states would replace Evolution with Intelligent Design on the curriculum. |
All states have state level laws about integrated schools now, so no. The rest is accurate, but you have to bear in mind that people can literally vote with their feet. Without welfare states anymore, productive people will move where their kids will get a good education. States will actually be competing with each other to be a good place to live, because they can't rely on Federal welfare anymore. Most of the states that would approve of ID are already bankrupt, they'd need to cultivate a VERY good image to stay solvent without being propped up.
And they can't increase taxes because: No Income Tax! They could increase property taxes but the real estate prices in States that aren't popular will fall drastically as it is, increasing taxes will just push more people away. A lot of what he proposes will result in real, meaningful economic competition between states.
