      Nothing now, but you’re the one talking about making something mandatory, which would be the government forcing us to do it. And again, it would not be covered in schools, certainly not all schools. People would have to pay for it themselves.

            Every single one of those is available here, just with different names now.

            My kids even have to take and pass the us citizenship test to pass high school, which I think is just awesome.

            Most of the people I know, myself included probably, couldn’t do that and we have voting abilities
