...But being in the majority AND a taxpayer means you get to drive your views right into the heart of the school system.

But here you've missed the boat entirely. Being a taxpayer and wrong

responsibility to provide correct education to the student--that's under
the section of oaths for public officials that deals w/ prudent
stewardship of public monies. Wasting such public funds on
pseudo-science is not such stewardship.
