The US has certainly gotten away from any notion of giving a crap about all citizens.

The super tankers of cash exiting the Treasury and being shipped to the largest and most profitable corporations while schools are being shut indicates clearly enough the priorities here.





Jesus Christ...   We spend more on education in this country than just about any other country in the world.  I asked this to Imperatrixx and I will ask it to Edwyn; does a third edition U.S. History book published by Doyle Publishing read differently in Brooklyn, NY than it does in Conway, Ar.?  Are the words different?  Answer that please.

This was Imperatrixx' answer: "no but you have different classroom sizes"  Is that going to be your answer?  Classroom size?  As a child, my classrooms always had 25-33 kids in them...even through college for the most part.  My law school class had 130 people in it.

Why is it that, predominantly, you libs don't take into account parenting when it comes to education?  Why do you have this REMARKABLE myopia to believe that the fucking U.S.Government of Failure can raise your kids for you?

Here is another question for you, Edwynn;  Jake is in the 5th grade.  His mother is a cleaning woman and his father is an unemployed drunk.  Jake's mom tips the elbow herself.  They have lovely fights which rarely turn physical and neither of them spends one fucking minute with Jake doing his homework or checking to see if it is even done.  How much money should we raise through taxes to bring Jake's grades up?  Ok...answer that question please.

By the way, RealOne wrote an excellent post that shortly precedes this one.  Figure it the fuck out folks....the government wasn't created to be your wet nurse.  The government has enumerated powers and the fewer the better.  You people are responsible for your own success, failure and standard of living.

FR:

What has a higher precedence: an obligation to all citizens of a country, or an obligation to pay entitlements to some citizens of the country?

Firm



only if it can be obtained from a court.

you are presumed to be a citizen for all payin activities but not pay out.

the entitlement creates the obligation.  entitlements are grants of right from one party to another.

The united states controls both sides of the contract.

Not just different class sizes, but different quality of teachers as well. The teachers that go to the best schools and graduate at the top of their class get hired at the better schools, because those schools pay more and have higher standards. The poorer schools get the teachers with worse grades from worse schools.

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052702304887904576398092725529776.html

Are you saying that these schools are failing because all of the students parents are terrible? I don't disagree that bad parenting doesn't help education, but it also helps to be in an environment conducive to education. There are deeper social problems that are at the root of a lot of that.

I mean, you're talking about history textbooks being the same...first of all the book isn't necessarily the same, not all schools can even afford to get the newest edition, and second of all, even if the book is the same, that doesn't mean the computers, the science lab, the counseling services, the test preparation, the library, the quality of teachers, etc. will be the same.

But I will ask you this - if you think that the majority of the problem comes from the parents, what do you think should be done about that to help salvage the future of the nation?

Here, this school in Milwaukee has 0% of its students "proficient" in reading according to state tests.
http://www.walletpop.com/photos/worst-performing-public-schools/

Do you really think it's just because every single parent in that district is a drunk? We're not talking about underperforming students in a good school, we're talking about failing schools as a whole.

whatever you do by all means listen to willabees 1/2 truths!

http://www.cato.org/pubs/journal/cj23n1/cj23n1-10.pdf

there is no formal "bankruptcy" proceeding because if there was lets face all we americans would have to do is turn in all our bills to the "receiver" to be paid.

so the us is and always has operated in bankruptcy but not formally!  I cannot imagine why?

problem is unless you are an attorney and understand basic corporate bankruptcy law you would never be able to figure it out.

there was a florida case that I have yet to get my hands on but the guy did a "forensic" audit and proved to the court that the majority of school money goes over seas.

they make a case for fire, police and education and right behind it the sandpaper dick

Eight schools just got shut down here locally, pardon me for alluding to facts.

No, I don't have the highest praise for the US education system myself, especially as they keep producing idiots like you.

But the red herring you throw out is all you've got in response to the fact of the US Treasury continually writing checks to Exxon, GE, Koch Bros., Goldman Sachs, and many others.

Suck that corporate dick all you want, just keep the slurping noises down, please help us.

No surprise here; you come up with a complete fabrication that conveniently suits every stereotype to your taste, a la the Reagan 'welfare queen' con job.

Good luck on anybody listening to an unoriginal and tic'ed off preschool-level story teller.

That's more a conservative thing than a liberal one: the pressure groups who think that their kids are every fucker else's responsibility rather than their own tend to come from the religious right rather than from the liberal side of the fence.

I just want to know why pointing out that some schools have under 5% proficiency in reading and math, aka the things you're supposed to learn in school, is somehow expecting people to "raise your kids" for you.

and how does one plan for retirement when the gub pisses everything away and worse devalues the money/wealth/whatever?


One plans for retirement by not counting on the Government.  They cannot piss away that which is not given to them.  (Meaning your gross income after taxes.)

In the end, independence and self-sufficiency are not easily devalued.

How do you survive without using the national currency?


They most certainly can!

They raise that which you must give to them!  "taxes"

In the american economy you are always paying for cheap money with expensive money.  

a point certain people on these boards avoid like the bubonic plague.

I did an example of this on this board I believe.

There was a moment in 1933 just before roosevelt declared bankruptcy that the dollar went up to a value of one dollar.

That said if you take a million dollars put it in the bank and collect 6% paying a meager 20% taxes on the gains until 2009 where you take it out inflation adjust it then how much do you have in your hand?

Most people were shocked to discover they only had shit I forget but it was about 400,000 left!   

Investment return after 72 years of 6% interest inflation adjusted minus 600 grand on a million!.   oh yeh!


Who controls that you? me?  How do you claculate your retirement?

Of course reality does not sound as good as the pseudo economic gurus out here tooting their creative horns of futile rearrangement and pretending anything will change on a macro level.

here:


The validity of the public debt of the United States … shall not be questioned.”  14th Amendment, Section 4  

It’s equivalent to a mortgage, they just assign the property to someone else and collect payment through taxes.  

YOU OWE OBLIGATIONS!
   

“Allodial. Free; not holden on any lord or superior; owned without obligation of vassalage or fealty…”   

“Fee simple. A fee simple absolute is an estate limited absolutely to a man and his heirs and assignees forever without limitation or condition. An absolute or fee simple estate is one in which the owner is entitled to the entire property, with unconditional power of disposition during his life, and descending to his heirs and legal representatives upon his death in testate.”  

That is old, now days you would need “God” title to compete with the syntax terrorism of the guv who now claims “Ultimate” title to all property.  

Think I am wrong?  

Tell them you are no longer interested in their services and see if they stop sending you a tax bill.
 

They have a GREATER interest in your property than you do.  Its all in the butchered law.

In fact your property is so important it is a matter of national security!  It holds up the monetary system!  Just like feudal times

Da guv is the landlord and you RENT and are called "owner".  lol
   

The United States did go "Bankrupt" in 1933 and was declared so by President Roosevelt by Executive Orders 6073, 6102, 6111 and by Executive Order 6260 on March 9, 1933, under the "Trading With The Enemy Act" of October 6, 1917, AS AMENDED by the Emergency Banking Relief Act, 48 Stat 1, Public Law No. 1, which is presently codified at 12 USCA 95a and confirmed at 95b. You can confirm this for yourself by reading it on FindLaw.

Thereafter, Congress confirmed the bankruptcy on June 5, 1933, and thereupon impaired the obligations and considerations of contracts through the "Joint Resolution To Suspend The Gold Standard And Abrogate The Gold clause, June 5, 1933" (See: HJR-192, 73rd Congress, 1st Session).

When the Courts were called upon to rule on various of the provisions designed to implement and compliment FDR's Emergency BANKING Relief Act of March 9, 1933, they were all found unconstitutional, so what FDR did was simply stack the "Court's" with HIS chosen obsequious members of the bench/bar and then sent many of the cases back through and REVERSED the rulings.

House Joint Resolution 192 (HJR-192), 48 Stat. 112, was passed by Congress on June 5, 1933. The 'Act' impaired the obligations and considerations of contacts and declared that the notes of the Federal Reserve banks were "legal tender" for the payment of both public and private debts, and that payment in gold Coin was against "public policy". (In effect, FDR and Congress, under executive orders and legislative fiat, nationalized the people's money, i.e., their gold Coin.

Conversion from public law to public “policy”  (demobcracy) 

 “Hypothecate. To pledge property as security or collateral for a debt. Generally, there is no physical transfer of the pledged property to the lender; nor is the lender given title to the property; though he has a right to sell the pledged property upon default.” 


Nationalization is a violation of the Law of Nations and existing public policy of Congress. See: Hilton vs. Guyot, 159 U.S. 113 (1895). The gold Coin that was confiscated (nationalized) was later used to purchase voting stockholder shares in The Bank and The Fund at $35 per ounce.) At this point in time, "Fair Market Value", i.e., a willing seller and buyer, without compulsion, lost any substantial meaning.


in a word yeh they can! and they do! and it aint getting no better because people do not understand the mechanisms they are dealing with!

This attitude is the problem I have with conservatives.

Selfish and pathetic.


I never said I didn't care about anyone else. I'm more than willing to help those who help themselves. Welfare should be a helping hand up...not a permanent way of life.

So it's "selfish" of me to want to keep as much of the money that I work for and EARN? It's "selfish" of me to expect others to work and earn their money/way through life?

This is my biggest problem with those on the left...they always want to give money away--as long as it is not their money.

thanks for clearing that up!

left = give money away

right = give no money away.

I'm sorry but these lefty righty arguments are so fucking infantile I could puke.

The honest answer is that this once great nation is totally fucked because far too many people expect everything to be handed to them on a silver platter. Far too many people have it in their tiny brainless heads that it is okay suck off the public trough.

And the mere fact that you think it is "selfish" for someone to want to keep as much of the money that he/she works for and earns is completely ridiculous and 100% in line with the liberal mindest.

Tell you what...come over to my house I have a lot of work that needs to be done. I'll pay a fair wage and after you're all done I'll give all the money that you worked for to some homeless person.

Deal?
