1. dont forget the schools and prisons

May 2012

they are killing off the public school system. It would seem that they no longer think anyone not rich needs an education. After all, with all the laws bought in their favor and against the rest of us, all the non rich will surely be in their privatized prisons. We wont need an education since we are all heading to that prison or an early death, or drug addicted. We will then be allowed to work for them from prison fo a few pennies a day effectively reinstating slavery.

Sometimes I think that they kmow that they have fucked up this world beyond repair and that it will not sustain us all. they intend for only the rich to live. They think that there are enough resources for them only.
