Didn't take much thought.
By sense of responsibility I mean being aware of the entire consequences of the decisions and making them in that awareness. Specifically in knowing that "as Texas goes, so goes the country" (regardless of the reason, monetary or publishers or whatever) should they not be making the decision in that light?
Now perhaps they are and perhaps they ARE attempting to influence and control what my kids are taught in Colorado or Alaska. If so then they are overstepping their bounds by forcing what others outside the state of TX are learning.
This is why it becomes my business and the business of others outside of TX.
