GOVERNMENT SCHOOL IDIOCY

boortz.com: GOVERNMENT SCHOOL IDIOCY
I just can't stand this kind of idiocy. If this were my child, I'd be suing over something this incredibly stupid. I'm probably going to wind up facing something like this at some point, having 5 kids. I just hope I'll be able to afford the attorneys fee's. Hopefully this zero-tolerance nonsense will go away before I have to deal with it, but I will do my part if I have to. I think a lot of this crap has to do with the tendancies for school administrators to be liberal leaning, hence a push toward communal thinking, so if you don't fit into the commune, you get the boot. This type of thinking is going to end up hurting the truly intelligent kids out there, as they will be taught that thinking "outside the box" is bad, and they will all learn to be good little sheep.

If I didn't live out in the middle of nowhere, I'd be pushing Deanna hard to home school the kids. I want them to have the interaction with other kids tho, and I think that would still be somewhat difficult to do in my area. I have heard about home schooling groups that get together once a week or more to get the kids together and go on field trips and such. I'll have to look into that and see if there are any in my area.

boortz.com: THE AARP DECLARES WAR ON YOUNGER AMERICANS:

"The solution? Privatization! If you own your own account it can't be taken from you or your family and given to some stranger living in a retirement community in Palm Desert, California. If you have the misfortune to die before the law allows you to start withdrawing retirement benefits from your account the money goes to your family. Isn't that the way you would want it? Wouldn't you want that money to be spent to make your spouse or children rather than someone you didn't know and who might not have even given you the time of day if you had known them during life?

This is absurd, folks. We're supposed to be living in free country that recognizes property rights. You own you, not the government. You work for you, not for some stranger. In a free country your government should not seize your money by force and put it into a phony 'retirement' fund that earns you a sub-par rate of return and to which you have no legal right beyond what politicians are willing to grant. When you die the money you earned during life shouldn't be seized by government to be transferred to another individual you don't know while your family scrambles about looking for a way to keep their home and pay for your funeral, but that's exactly what the AARP is fighting for."

This boggles the mind. This is basically a form of slavery, where you as the worker are coerced into giving up part of your time to the government to cover social security for people who are retired. As Boortz has said before, if any other company were run the way social security were run, it would be considered an illegal pyramid scheme (which is exactly what it is), but since the government runs it, there is nothing you can do about it, except write to your congressperson. Please, anyone that reads this, write to your congressperson and let them know that you want social security reform to go through, preferably with all of it privatized, but we take what we can get. Also, any retiree with a conscience should tell the AARP that they also want social security privatized, it's just not going to work the way it is.
