Re: Allow me a small rant

The only nonsense here is me trying to discuss something seriously with you.  I should have heeded your advice a long time ago.  Won't make that mistake again.  So long and have a great life.  I am.

You wished me to be the victim of terrorism and expect something from me but derision? You've said you would stop responding to my posts numerous times, maybe this time you will.

Re: Allow me a small rant

When the robber barons set about taking over the education of America their goal was to produce a compliant, unthinking, working class that could carry out menial tasks without challenging the ruling class.

 

Alright Sam! You finally got it! You are discribing excately what is happening in the attack on education, as we speak! All the cuts these states are taking on education, are for the express result you have just written. BTW, where do you suppose your children and your grandchildren will fall in the robber barons scheme of things?

Re: Allow me a small rant

In the system progressives imagined 100 years ago my children would be in the technocracy. Managing the day to day lives of people like you.

Which cuts would those be?  According to the link below, education spending by the states has gone up 40% in the last decade.
