WHAT FOOLS WE ARE—PITY THE YOUNG! November 7, 2012
Is there any honesty in the U.S. government schools, yes there are goodly numbers of bonafide school teachers, however they are neutered by government regulations and “public service†unions. Another problem is most teachers laboring in the failed K-12 are products of the same failed system that is presently destroying the minds of our children through propaganda, social engineering, indoctrination, accompanied by minimal core curricula. Couple the above with the fact that rarely is a teacher ever fired due to the public service unions’ protection racket.
As the 2013 Arkansas legislative session is close by, Arkansas Governor Beebe and certain members of the legislature are already in their “more money for education†attack mode, offering up tens of millions for “better educationâ€. Since when does money equate with real education? Neither Beebe nor the legislators offer any clue as to their proposed distribution of the funding. You want to bet it will be equally divided between teacher raises and more grand edifices, neither of which is deserved or needed.
Never are there public discussions on academics and what core curriculum has been castrated and what social programs are metastasizing.
Vital statistics were recently printed in the Times Record regarding enrollment in the Fort Smith school system. Before the identification of the statistics, two comments from Director of Student Services, Randy Bridges, and Superintendent of Ft. Smith schools Benny Gooden. First to Bridges, “Our funding is based on enrollment†(always the funding). Gooden said…â€when 7 out of 10 young people come from family backgrounds whose economics qualify them for free or reduced-priced meals it’s a challengeâ€. Gooden goes on to say that “in the school year 2012 the district Caucasian population has decreased to 42.6%, while the Latino population is now 30.5%â€. Gooden continued “Spanish speaking students have nearly doubled over the past 7 years and 24 languages are represented in the Fort Smith school districtâ€. Not one word of alarm emanating from Gooden or Bridges about the absolute collapse of the F.S. district due to the 3rd world invasion engulfing our city and nation. In my view, it is absolutely criminal that the so-called “education†community with whom we entrust our kids calmly and blatantly allow their minds to be destroyed by the faux public school system and these same alleged educators & politicians’ only response—More Funding. FUNDING FOLLOWS FAILURE.
The educational community has offered no apologies to the taxpayers for their failures, and more importantly have refused to publicly & formally discuss the causes of the failures and the solutions to right the ship.
Now the big lie. Superintendent Gooden and his battery of alleged educators are so controlled by federal & state dollars and consumed with their own economic self-interest, that they are apparently oblivious to the reality of the failed system in which they wallow, nor do they ever give thanks to the private sector taxpayers who subsidize the giant government education cabal which can only be described as a huge protection racket in every sense of the word.
The very idea there are 24 different languages spoken in the Fort Smith school district and 30.5% of the school population is Latino is a criminal disaster by design and orchestrated by federal & state legislators and their enabling school administrators and teachers. In the case of federal legislators who swear to defend the sovereignty of our republic and refuse to do so and are criminally & constitutionally corrupt for not so doing. Why do alleged educators never state publicly that A QUALITY EDUCATION is impossible when there are 24 languages spoken in the system (43 different languages in the Springdale system)? It would be refreshingly honest if the “educators†would declare the impossibility of proper academic teaching under these conditions. Do you really believe your child is getting any semblance of a “good education�
Then the matter of demographics…what percent of the 30.5% Latinos in the system are here illegally and what percent speak any English? The public is never apprised and most government employees will lie and say they don’t know. The F.S. school system is said to issue what are called “social numbers†which is the way they qualify for federal & state funding and ultimately the “social numbers†are used as social security numbers, i.e. backdoor amnesty.
Government is full of liars, cheats, double-dippers, featherbedders, all driving the private sector into the ground…all in the name of “education†and other failed government institutions. Their mantra is “Funding Follows Failureâ€.
The education cabal is nothing but an indoctrination pit and is far more interested in bribing and indoctrinating the multicultural hordes into a get along mode, all by design…designed by the Communistic Cultural Marxist’s of the 1930’s. Do the research.
Who is really to blame for the dissolution and destruction of this once preeminent republic? My vote goes to American citizens who are lazy, uninterested, uniformed, hands-out, and stupidly continue to reelect parasitic demagogues’ election cycle after cycle, e.g. Gov. Mike Beebe, Senator Mark Pryor, Senator John Boozman, ad infinitum.
One further point: Arkansas is a state with a population of about 2 ½ million, of which 780,000 are presently on welfare and Arkansas’ benevolent governor lays the groundwork to put another ¼ million deadbeats & illegals on the taxpayer teat, which will bring the total recipients to well over 1,300,000….half the state’s population.
All the above taken by force with no moral or constitutional authority. Who pays? You know.
