I came across a very good documentary, uploaded by: truthmediainfo, titled, "The Secret of Oz Full Documentary" that makes a strong case it is the "quantity" of currency that directly causes economic growth, recessions, & depressions. Having watched it twice myself, Banks, at this time, do not want to create loans on purpose & contract our economy, thus creating current recession so they can obtain ownership of forclosed homes & real estate. Land Grab! Give it a watch. Peace out!

I am not getting this, if you DONT PERFORM, you lose money. What these protesters are saying is " it doesnt matter how we perform ! dont look at that ! just keep paying us the tax payers money .. how we perform doesnt matter ? " .. close the schools which dont perform and save my tax money for something else.

How is taking 4 years to graduate not failure? at least dont expect tax payers to pay for you =[

@USASecretHistory Get rid of the phenomenal amount of waste, and there would be no lack of funding. As it is, over 75% of our education dollar goes to something OTHER THAN teacher salaries, classroom supplies, and facility maintenance. I was an educator for many years, and I was appalled by the amount of "dead wood" in the district and state education bureaucracies--not to mention the countless "consultants" who pulled down big bucks for doing work of questionable value.

USASecretHistory - 8.2.2012 3:47:18
It's probably because you're stupid and a hopeless failure in life. I understood them perfectly well. Your comment is just a defense mechanism because you don't want to confront the ugly reality that this country is in deep trouble. The people running these schools are morons and corrupt. An uneducated citizenry is a threat to democracy. Thomas Jefferson said that. 

USASecretHistory - 8.2.2012 3:39:23
Both are a problem. Mismanagement and waste at the school district levels and lack of funding. California has one of the worst per pupil spending in the country.

took the words right out of my mouth. the system we have now all over the world is archaic and compartmentalized to return the highest amount of profits with little regard to the success of students. We need a complete overhaul EVERYWHERE in the way we think about education and how to attain it.

This idiot chick is a perfect example of how little good education does...especially when you've got an IQ of 80 like she does.

@USASecretHistory Tax loopholes for corporations are an issue, I agree, but I would submit that the problem with our public schools is NOT lack of adequate funding--the problem is the bloated bureaucracies that suck of so much of our education dollar. Think about it: NJ, e.g., spends about $13K PER STUDENT, which comes out to around $400,000 per classroom. Where does all that money go?

SORRY NO MORE MONEY FOR YOU KIDDOS, WE HAVE TO SEND MONEY TO ISRAEL.

UNIVERSITYHI - 6.2.2012 5:10:30
As you stated: "billions and trillions in war spending...." Who do you think the target of that spending is? It is brown people. That is what they refer to themselves as and we are killing them in a batch process...... The statement I made is ironic.

reptilianism420 - 6.2.2012 4:44:34
brown? really ur gonna say that? of all meaningful and insightful things u could say, u say that...

THEY HAVE $ FOR A WAR WITH IRAN, BUT THEY DON'T HAVE $ TO SUPPORT SCHOOLS. :?

USASecretHistory - 5.2.2012 2:19:20
I don't underestimate it. I was going to mention Egypt, but I'm limited to 500 characters. Social media is a tool that can be used to change the system. However, I'm not sure it should be the focus in developing a winning strategy. Maybe I'm wrong. Yeah, I would be interested in some links. Thanks.

WickedMo13 - 5.2.2012 2:06:58
You under estimate the power of twitter and if kids get pissed off enough. Did you know the egyptian revolution used twitter to fucking organize most of their attacks? I can give you a link to that if interested, anyway from your comment I feel you have an older persons perspective, a fellow 80s baby? Not to say your wrong, and I agree about the alienation thing, but it is used on so many levels, not positive 1s tho i.e. underground parties,etc. Flip it to positive is the step!

USASecretHistory - 5.2.2012 1:18:40
The social media tends to isolate and alienate people from one another. It gives people the illusion that they are being integrated into the rest of society. It actually does the opposite. Everyone is in their own bubble. Why are kids bored? They're alienated. Nothing new to American society. Organization and mobilization have always been the key to social change throughout US history. I agree that technology has played a role though. I gave your comment a thumbs up.

WickedMo13 - 5.2.2012 1:11:55
I hear you on the organization thing, but this generation has a new medium of social media, that no one knows how to adapt too or utilize as well as the youth. You market a facebook super ditch day party,or something along those lines and start a snowball effect. Then its on.I have seen it happen in my cousins area with zombieday,started out as a little joke Then a couple years later and hundred of bored kids are walking the streets as zombies. Just takes a small group of kids.

U sownd aight teen an can't efen rite.

30 corporations did not pay any taxes from 2008-2010. They actually received tax rebates from the government. I think Wells Fargo was the biggest recipient. School funding is largely dependent on state and federal taxes. LAUSD, the 2nd largets school district in the US receives about $2 billiion annually from the federal government. It has one of the worst per pupil spending in the US. It is either 48th or 49th. I believe Missippi is the worst.

Great idea. The problem is organization. Most Americans aren't as organized as they were during the 1950s and 1960s. But if they did what you said, these people running these schools would get down on their knees and say "Okay, okay, we got the message. Can we negotiate." After all, they are politicians who are dependent on votes.

USASecretHistory - 5.2.2012 0:28:32
Oh dear, I didn't ask you. Please stop fantasizing. It's the rich who have the rest of us on our knees. They have all the power, They even own the politicians who every year resemble strippers when corporations stuff money in their campaign coffers. The big banks like Citibank, Goldman Sachs, Bank of America, Credit Suisse, Wells Fargo are funding Romney's campaign. A man who doesn't work for a living.

@UNIVERSITYHI That's what AIDS and crack were supposed to do, but both failed. ;)

ClumsyRoot - 4.2.2012 18:56:54
@yo1dude1man It's a Catch-22. Banks don't want to loan money--the risks are too high--and yet the economy can't get back on track until they do. I have mixed feelings about the government getting directly involved, and I definitely don't want to see any penalties on banks for NOT loaning money. I don't know what the answer is.
