drugging school kids | tin foil alert! | educational privatization
following this 'testing' and drugging story on-line and on Randi today.

doesn't it make eerie sense that if the corporate fascists wanted to privatize 'public' education, they would have to ensure their investors that the 'students' could be controlled economically by chemical means where necessary.

McEducation. exactly the same everywhere.

with four more years, we can expect the rich/poor divide to deepen and widen. eliminating the middle class elevates the elite.

small businesses and entrepreneurs will continue to be flattened or absorbed by ever-expanding, essentially unchecked monopolies.

the bush 'base' will not be content until your corner bodega is a wholly-owned subsidiary of WAL-MART.

if BARNES&NOBLE does not carry the book or disc you want, you will not be able to buy it. (openly)

competing brands will vanish. the best will be available only to the lords in their gated communities. the serfs will eat CANNED CORN, COFFEE and CHEESE.

this is the endgame of unchecked greed supported by blind, disastrous, faith.

2. if they privatize, they can ensure the poor get no education
the middle class disappears, and it's all slave labor for the rich.
