Come on now, just because he's ushering in an Apocalypse doesn't mean that anti-christ claptrap means anything. Let's not confuse reality with fairy tales.
Compare SS to any sort of private institution, or Medicaid. They are very efficient. Other federal programs do well also, economy of scale and all. http://www.motherjones.com/kev...
My normal vacuum needs maintenance all the time. If you have kids with long hair, take the rolller off the bottom and cut all that hair off every 6 months or so, you'll thank me.
The single greatest determinant of a child's success, is parental involvement. That's how we fix public schools, unfortunately, it can't happen when children live in poverty or get shunted around due to evictions and homelessness. The public schools that are hurting are the ones that deal with these issues. The vast majority of public schools are excellent, but some are so bad they drive down the average significantly.
How do you get that data about the bad potatoes, how any sacks of shitty potatoes have to be eaten? You do realize that each of those "sacks" represents at least a couple hundred kids who are wasting a year of their lives and in the best case trying to catch up at a better school.
If you needed to collect a gallon of water, from a tank that was used to fill 10000 liter bottles. Would it make more sense to take that gallon from each bottle, afew drops at a time, or just pull it from the main tank? This is why we tax corporations. Either is identical, right?
we will inevitably get ignorant fools get dragged around by their nose by anyone that can create a half-assed argument to hate the "others".
I read you upstream, do you realize your describing yourself?
Your other arguments are all over the place, which makes them hard to address in a systematic manner, I'll try. The complaints of 1% are not the fact that a 1% exists, they center around the fact that 1% controls vastly more then 1%, vastly more then 25%, I think it's currently around 40% of wealth. Does that seem fair or inevitable to you? Does that look like something one generation can surmount?
You also throw out that old bone of bad schools failing in a "market". That might work for people like yourself, who repeat grades multiple times and provide a comparison. Most children do each grade once. Many parents have limited opportunity to compare because they have 1 or 2 children. How can you advocate yanking years out of a child's only chance at childhood and wasting it on market reforms? It's not like we don't know what works, we are hamstrung by apologists and religious con men.
Your comments totally ignore the "prosperity gospel" folks and the huge number of christians who behave exactly the way your complaining about muslims behaving. Cite some verses. I'd love you educate you, if that's even possible.
ifconfig has been depreceated, net-tools last release was 2001. I think it's time to update your skills. Yeah, we all deal with old systems, but those should be the exception, not drive the rule.
Justin Cronin "The Passage" (three book series)
-- Great sci-fi spanning a couple generations, it's a horror / apocalyptic setting.
Clair North "The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August"
-- I thought this was a unique take on immortality
Guillermo del Toro "The Strain" (three book series)
-- another sci-fi / horror / apocalypse book with an interesting take on vampires. The FX network made a good series out of this.
I enjoy ebooks. I can keep one on my phone and read during downtime. There's alot of waiting with family stuff, and even if I'm just standing in a long checkout line; i can read afew pages and pass the time. Bonus, I don't mind the text-to-voice engine on my phone, so I can listen to my books while I drive and pick it up in the same place when i want to switch back to conventional reading. Actual audio books are too expensive and I find the voice acting distracting.

Remembering most of the people I talked to on Facebook, that was a feature, not a bug.

There are plenty of things the Government does efficiently, especially if it can't be politicized.

In reality, most kids will stay at the shitty private school because it's convenient, or their friends go there, or their parents are too busy to notice, or their parents have to metric to compare.
Sure, you guys are looking out for the poor investors. Both of them will be grateful.
Leave it to his children so they have better choices.

Indiana? Idaho?
Take a look at Michigan. The east (liberal) vs. west (conservative) and north (rural) vs south (urban / mixed rural), is astounding.
bod mod.. Tried to mod this insightful, it is.
Technically, I'm not even sure you have a hypothesis, you certainly don't have a theory.

There are no shortage of teachers who believe bullshit. Kinda like people who pull salary information out of their asses without an sort of citations.

You do realize that prior to the US invasion, Iraq was not run by Muslims. Education was secular.
Your trying to compare totally different things looking through a shit-smeared lens. That's why you keep getting modded down.

Are you arguing that food is "free market" in the US?
I have about 25 billion reasons your incorrect.
