And who were these people? Think about it. You condemn all those
millions of people - who are parents as well - all over the US who
teach or otherwise work in the public school system as all members of
your hated mafia. What you refuse to get is that *by your own words as

some of those who were and are for keeping the exemptions are part of
your hated mafia.
