Have you ever noticed that our educational system is like a box of laundry soap?

Ever since I was a little boy, I always noticed that each month they all had “NEW AND IMPROVED” on the boxes. This has gone on for every day, week, month, and year since 1950 and I have trouble understanding just how they can improve the soap to a better level so many times in so many years...while the soap seems to be exactly like it was in the beginning.

The same ALMOST applies to education. All I’ve heard is it’s new and improved yet the quality of the product gets worse every time the government “improves” it.

Ever notice that?

I certainly have.

And as the classes get larger, more money flows their way.

As more money flows their way, the more they need.

The palaces they’ve built for themselves, where the teaching assistants do their work — I guess that so they’re freed up to churn out all those anti-American, pro-globalization text books the students have to buy; and gives them time to attend seminars around the world and show up to support “re-elect Obama” fundraisers.

The students they’re turning out are not getting a quality education (look at how other countries are moving ahead of us) and when they do graduate (many, many don’t), they can’t find a job, a. because there aren’t any, b. because they aren’t qualified. Most of these institutions are money making, anti-American indoctrination camps, inside liberal employment factories. And now student loans will be completely controlled by the federal government. Scary.

Obama has tossed away the one agency that America called theirs, NASA. It is now “green” and monitoring Earth, searching for “life” rather than moving man into space, and will for a time (until they say we can’t) hitch rides on Russian ships to ISS. Obama is engaged in crony capitalism (Elon Musk - Space X - gave a big D.C. party 1st inauguration blow out for Obama and now holds fundraiser events at about $4K a seat for his re-electon). So for now the taxpayer’s space dollars will flow to Elon Musk.

Obama (who hates capitalism down to his toes) tells us commercial rockets are the way — will be on the way — that when (if) they fly, someone will think of a way to use them — create a market out of thin air. But he’ll squeeze them too and manned flight will die on schedule. He’s snuffing out all our pride. He’s hobbled our nation. The country is being destroyed.

The idiots thinking they’ve got their hands in our pockets are in for a big surprise once we’re tapped out and Democrats begin to call them mere party members and tell them to get in the bread lines. They will no longer be considered “victims” of the rich, because we will all be equal.

And education has played a major role in bringing us to this place.
