All parents and teachers should read this book. For more than a century, Americans have been the most productive workers in the world. Because of our many innovations, our economy has been among the strongest economies. We have always embraced freedom - the freedom to develop our unique talents and the freedom to allow students to grow and learn in different ways. At the heart of our American way of life has been our public schools - which have consistently produced the most highly trained and creative people in the world. Today there is a small group of extremely wealthy people trying to take over our public schools. The death of our schools would not only mean the death of our economy, but the death of our democracy. We are in a battle that many folks don't even know we are fighting. Yet more and more teachers, parents, and students are waking up to the fact that billionaires are using weapons of mass deception to wage a war against our children. Our mission is to arm you with tools and information on how to fight back! We answer important questions including: What is Common Core, who created it - and what is its real purpose? Why have billionaires paid millions of dollars to bribe politicians to change our education laws from local control to federal blackmail? Why have they paid millions more to create unfair and confusing high stakes tests,"designed to fail" most of the kids who take them? Why are First Graders being required to read & analyze complex texts? Why are Second Graders being taught math that is so confusing even experienced engineers can't do it? Why are teachers with years of experience being fired - and replaced with poorly paid recent college graduates who have almost no training at all? Why are successful public schools being closed - and replaced with failing for-profit schools run by Wall Street speculators? Learn while there is still time to save our schools and our democracy. Learn about the plot to destroy our schools... And what you can do to protect your kids!

We, David Spring and Elizabeth Hanson, are two community college instructors who care deeply about all students getting a good education. Both of us have Master's Degrees in Education and have taught at community colleges in Washington State for more than 20 years. David was a 7th Grade Math teacher and has a Major in Science Education. His Master's Degree was in Child Development. He has spent years studying how chronic stress, such as from high stakes tests, can severely harm a child's ability to learn. David is the Director of College in the Clouds, an online non-profit educational program. David also teaches courses in Website Design. See Collegeintheclouds.org and Buildyourownbusinesswebsite.org for more information about these programs. Elizabeth has taught English as a Second Language since 1985. Earlier in her career, Elizabeth was a GED instructor. Some of her friends are GED instructors. They alerted us to the harmful changes in the 2014 GED. We therefore decided someone needed to do something to offer struggling students a fairer chance at a better future. We hope you will join us in working to restore GED fairness and end Common Core, High Stakes testing in Washington State and across the US.
