Imposing standards written in Washington DC
on Wisconsin farm kids is an example of federal
regulation gone insane.

The standards were not written in Washington. The National
Governors' Association created a group to develop the standards.
Sounds like a state-level endeavor to me.

Why shouldn't Wisconsin farm kids have a basic grounding in
math and language skills? They'll need them to run the
family farm.
