Education ping.
If you want on or off this education ping list, let McVey, JamesP81, or me know.
This is a good read. I suggest FReepers click the link and read it.
e.g.,
"But the main thing that sets the modern poor apart from the industrial age pauper is a sheer lack of interest in education. Today's proletariat has little education and no interest in obtaining more. Back in the early days of industrialization, the poor joined worker associations that often doubled as educational associations. The modern member of the underclass, by contrast, has completely shunned personal betterment.
He likewise makes little effort to open the door to the future for his own children. Their language skills are as bad as their ability to concentrate. The rising rate of illiteracy is matched by the shrinking opportunities to integrate the underclass. The Americans, not ones to mince words, call them "white trash.""
Looks like homeschoolers WILL be having the advantage. Funny how the system that the liberals put so much faith in looks like it's allowing for those they oppose to rise to promonent positions simply because they're educated.
I am gona bump this a couple times cuz it is such a good read. I sent an email and link to Boortz cuz I thought it would hit his "somebody's gotta say it" button.
This is one more reason that democracy, or, at least, universal suffrage, is a really, really bad idea.
It is also no coincidence that European unemployment would disappear were Muslims deported.
Any German who wrote a book that called nonwhites in Germany a name equivalent to "white trash" would literally be on his way to prison. You can hardly find a better example of the new racial hierarchy in Western society. The really offensive thing is the idea that it is this class that is a danger to society. It isn't the poor who are flooding Germany with foreigners, pushing the EU, and groveling in self-loathing, and it isn't the poor who are pushing MTV morals, these things are being done by the class this author belongs to. The upper classes, particularly the upper middle class have waged what can be called with scant exaggeration a pitiless war against the white working class. As the author of this piece says "his predecessor may have been on the margins of society, today he is an outsider." That didn't just happen to happen, it happened because it benefited those with power, including class benefits. The working class, along with the lower middle class has borne the brunt of all the disastrous social experimentation the upper middle class has practiced on Western society since the 60s, particularly multiculturalism and immigration. It is the lower classes that are in direct economic competition with immigrants, and worse in direct social contact with them. For the upper classes diversity means a wide choice of restaurants, for the lower class it is the reality of the ghetto and barrio, of threats and assault, and being chased from their neighborhoods at devastating cost.
