A lot of us are fighting for an education, battling inequality and marching for justice. Quit calling us lazy!

....... I’m an early millennial, born in 1984, and when I started my education, I was able to attend a classroom that had gifted and special-ed programming in my neighborhood with an average class size of 20. Current millennials in Chicago, Detroit and Philadelphia are having sit-ins and organizing unions, as their schools are closed with class sizes of 29 called too small. When children are left crying at the end of the year because their schools won’t reopen, what part of that experience tells them they are coddled and special? What does it say about America when its major urban centers would rather build stadiums than educate their future voters? What more does it say that it would rather point and laugh at the kids with stable high school educations and college possibilities who point cameras at their faces than talk about the ones who are trying desperately to graduate from schools that are more concerned with test scores than educating kids?.........

Do all “minority” millennials have a “ward-of-the-state” entitlement mentality?
“Do all “minority” millennials have a “ward-of-the-state” entitlement mentality?”
Yeah, pretty much.
***I refuse to work my butt off so that the Government can tax me to fund these “schools” for others.***
Sounds like my worthless brother-in-law (If you know him he probably owes you money).
Back in 1981 he quit work declaring “I’m not gonna pay taxes to Reagan!” He has not had a steady job since.
He later found a way to get on the Government tit and has been there every since. Democrat to the core.

What a laff!!!
I enjoy Rush, but can’t stand all the commercial breaks! I spend more time muting his commercials...so I do not tune in much anymore.
