“The aim of public education is not to spread enlightenment at all; it is simply to reduce as many individuals as possible to the same safe level, to breed and train a standardized citizenry, to put down dissent and originality. That is its aim in the United States, whatever the pretensions of politicians, pedagogues and other such mountebanks, and that is its aim everywhere else.”

yeah. and our “money’ is worth less every damn day. stuff I could have bought back in the 1970’s cost 10 times as much now. the item is the same, it just that the money is worth a lot less today. I bought gold coins back in the late 1970’s for about 250-275 each. NOW, same coins are bringing close to 3400.
they robbing us every time they run the printing press. its small and most people don’t see it until it starts to hurt. what the point of saving money if its just going to drop in value ? also why I put any spare cash into buying “stuff’ I know will hold its value. and “they” wonder why people loathe them. this is not going to end well for most of us, you know that right ?

Meh. Uncle Ted K had the answers for the Big Club and You-Know-Who from Germany knew what to do about the Big Noses that ran it.
The sad fact is that half those morons in the audience applauding were the exact brain dead imbeciles that tirade was about…
History will repeat when the free shit army runs out of money and food.
