Our Education System is not teaching real life skills

and our Media is aimed at 6 year olds that's probably why we have so many Morons in our diaspera. the whole system needs an overhaul, not just money.

[restlys]

in a free market capitalist system, when the private sector fails, the public sector pays.

Wait what?

Public Education and Infrastructure are our only hope to get out of this mess, we need to invest more, not less.

2) current economic theory is not terribly accurate and thus it doesn't really matter if you know it or not. in fact the current recession wasn't even foreseen. Even if we assume that Keynesian economics is reasonably useful, it only looks at transactions, averages, gdp, and the like. it doesn't care that 66% of that wealth is held by 10% of our population, or that 10% of our people are unemployed and have been left without the means to provide for themselves.

"you so ignorant of economics"

"i cannot believe are actually this ignorant."

1) its hard to feel insulted when your grammar sounds like your in an English as a second language class. (im sorry I mentioned it if you actually are)

Public education has emerged as a casualty?

lmao!

Students have been the casualties of public education for decades.

In NY the recession actually caught the local

organized crime syndicates by surprise.

Joe Bruno, republican, 80 YO, finally got caught

after all this time. Charlie Rangle, mocrat, 70's,

got caught for minor stuff while rangling for decades.

William Thompson of NYC has been raiding NY pensions for yrs. Hows that pension "investment" in Ireland doing, or not doing? Obama steppes into the RNC trap & now has keep bailing...until the RNC "rescues" us again with Jeb Bush & Liz Cheney. )))

we let these bastards sell out our kids

we need to take to the streets

[lyndonb]

Its not about right or left paradigms - both parties will be the death of us through spending and swindling the public through the fed reserve and shipping our jobs overseas

[cidrosmith]

I guess when you walk around long enough with dog shit on your boot you forget it's there.

Actually your the 24 year old idealist "useful Idiot" who lacks any fundamental understanding how the real world works and yes I am a student of both of Keynesian vs Austrian economics. Bring it on oh ignorant one who things that states have a never ending right to tax and spend without accountability.
