OK, why didn’t they have THESE field trips when I was in 8th grade?

1 Jun

I feel cheated that during my junior high days, I never got to take a field trip to Hooters!

Somehow this made news, which seems a bit odd since no parents have complained. I doubt any of the boys did either.

For one group of Berwick School District eighth-graders, a recent field trip to Baltimore included lunch at Hooters — a restaurant better known for its busty waitresses than its food.

The Berwick Middle School students were visiting the National Aquarium last week. Chaperones took them to various restaurants for lunch because the group of 100 was too large for a single place.

One group of 15 to 20 students reportedly ended up at Hooters.

Superintendent Wayne Brookhart says that while he wishes the group’s coed chaperones had chosen another restaurant, he has not received any complaints from parents.

    [...] OK, why didn’t they have THESE field trips when I was in 8th grade? No Gulag, evidently, can deter the advocates of state power from believing in their own virtue and in the morality of the power they exercise. We are all Hobbesians now. Virtue is presumed to reside in the state. Its reliance on compulsion is seen as fulfilling, no undermining, morality. Our communicators, oddly employed in the private sector, work tirelessly to ensure that state control is maintained, our taxes stay high, the official message is promoted. The people know, and can only know, a tiny fraction of what Leviathan does, and what they know is what these partisans tell them. — Tom Bethel [...]
