What moron came up with that tag?
For about a month now, the companies of NBC have been pushing a bunch of stories about the education in the US……mostly about what is being done properly….which is a good thing…but they seldom touch on what is being done wrong……the cuts in education, the politicians that hate education, the pure BS coming from the president and his group of liars……with these guys in charge there is NO education nation, just a nation of minimum wage earners….why? The country and the education system has FAILED the people!
The “special” that the networks do to promote a better understanding of education and the policies has FAILED and is a waste of time. Why? No one gives a sh*t! It is far more important for Americans to worry about who gets married or who has an abortion or even how many guns you want to buy and while you are jerking off with minor crap the country is dying!
Even if all the economic schemes work well this country is still doomed to mediocrity because the most important thing, especially at election time, is education….and yet we turn a blind eye at all the cuts to that system….as long as you put little social desires above the only thing that could possibly save this country, then the country is truly DOOMED!
Until we Americans learn how to get involved and demand our rights and needs we will be marginalized and the scum that is ruining this country will be able to function freely…….we need to react the way the Chileans have…..
From an article written be Luis Arce…….
Some 120,000 students, teachers and members of other unions marched on Thursday, June 30, in Chile to defend public education and oppose the proliferation of private, for-profit schools and universities.The demonstrators charge that the poorest youth are concentrated in public schools, where they receive an inferior education. The students are demanding that all Chileans be given the right to a higher education and that the government provide the necessary scholarships.
We Americans need to act as the Chileans…..we need to get involved…..we need to have massive protests, especially in Washington and in the offices of the thieves we have running this country……STOP! All the talk is doing NOTHING to make the US number one……without education we will revert to the days of the 1770’s….rich guys and indentured servants……
Without education…the US has NO future!
Your move!

A fairly colourful post, but very true. There have been times in the past when we have had similar issues in the UK – still have to some extent, though ALL education right up until education is free for all – UNLESS the parents elect to send their child to private schools and they certainly are, in the main, better.
However, I have no issue with private education, but I DO have issues with the state education that is not as good – a different look at the same thing… if state education is THAT good, then private education will be solely for those who chose it.
Actually, I think the real problem with state education in the UK (and I suspect it’s very similar in the US – in part at least) is that the teachers have lost control of just about everything in the morass of PC legislation we pay lip service to and all the EU’s shitty “human rights” crap – which largely seems to just get in the way of the human rights of decent people.
Discipline is VITAL – DO you work; DO your homework; DO NOT bully, be a pain, inyterfere with other students, etc., etc.; if you don’t comply then first offence = some mild punishment; second and third, fourth, fifth offences, increasingly long and or repeated detentions; six, seven, eighth and ninth offences – cane or other coporal punishment; tenth offence – shoot the little f*cker because he/she/it is wasting EVERYONE’S time and money and preventing many others from getting decent education! Problem solved.
Now there is the rub here….private education is better than public education…..because those with all the cash can pay the price for a good education…..and if education is important….it should be free and equal for EVERYONE. We gave billions to banks to sure up their balance sheet and we then set ab out trying to disband the Dept. of Ed…..or we will cut funds for the programs that are needed for the country to be competitive in the future…..
No one gives a sh*t! It is far more important for Americans to worry about who gets married or who has an abortion or even how many guns you want to buy and while you are jerking off with minor crap the country is dying!
Depressing as hell, but that just about sums it up.
Thanx Spinny…this has been one issue that I get worked up over….I listen to politicians tell us just how important education is to our future and then go back to Washington and slash all funds out of the programs…..this is unacceptable and I want Americans to see just how bad it can be and will be if we allow them to continue the assault on education….
