I dunno, while what he is proposing is impractical, judging by the content of this thread, and the few responses to what you've posted here on this thread, and responses I have seen to that article where posted elsewhere, I am not certain that the people he's addressing (whom are not the "Red Staters" ostensibly being addressed in the article) are actually taking it as such. I am not even certain that the author was being facetious in his proposal, which would make the claim that the article was "satire" somewhat tenuous.
Touche...well played. (And don't withdraw from this forum...just yet; there are posters here with whom you can "cross swords.") I've said it before, I wasn't the kind of teacher who folded my arms and dared students to cross me. (Too much of that in our "liberal" institutions of higher learning these days.) That's no way to develop the critical thinking skills to which so many school reformers pay lip service. And unlike some Boomers, perhaps, you nor any other Millennial owe us deference simply by virtue of our age. I'm sure you got your fill of that in the Army.
