We've been talking about this "invisible government" over on the other thread. Specifically as regards education, what in your opinion is the agenda of the people you're talking about? You mentioned earlier something about "rewriting American history." It is certainly true that U.S. history as taught in school today is very different from the way it was taught decades ago. For example, there was a time when the brutality inflicted on the American Indians was not covered at all when discussing westward expansion, and when schools in the south glossed over the issue of slavery. Education today is a lot less uncritically patriotic than it used to be. Is this the sort of thing you're talking about? On the face of it, this change seems to me to be a good one; how does it serve the agenda of the "invisible government" you're talking about? Or do you mean something else?
