| Message | There is no reason students should be forced to remain at school until the age of 18. The curriculum should be left to local governments; the education required for children in rural or urban areas or of the working or ruling classes is entirely different. Corporal punishment is a natural part of Luthorian society, and it being illegal mocks both traditional values and a good and effective education itself. As such, the Labour Unionist Party presents this bill to the House of Congress. |
