Code:
didn't allow those pity pot negros like you to tell themthey "can't" for whatever reason....
Who have I been telling they can't what?

I find putting words in other people's mouths a common strategy of White dummys.

I notice you didn't say sh!t about stolen land and having to pay rent on it. Or the entire economics profession not talking about NET WORTH and making accounting mandatory.

Do we need to go into who controls the crappy schools?

But that does bring up the question of why Black Americans don't share information and short circuit the schools controlled by the White morons?

umbrarchist

ps - "pity pot negro" where does that come from???

That is weak.You don't need "them" to educate yourself about financial and business affairs.

Who controls the children's MINDS?Many parents have dropped the ball when it comes to the education of their own child.People should be educating their children at home.I already knew how to read and write because my parents taught me at home.You have enough time to teach your children vulgarity and gyrations.What is it to sit down with yourchild to teach them reading and arithemic at home?Why do your kind of people insist on giving your child's minds over to the "crappy schools?You need to be more proactive and stop being so passive,sonny.

"Stuck up Kid", you seem to be such an expert as to how we put it down over here. You need to get your facts straight.And you can talkall you want, but after reading your post, it is so evident that you would talk sh1t about us even if New Orleans was as dry as a crackhead's lips.In all of your replies you come off as if you are superior to everybody else, as a matter of fact,I'm beginning to wonder if you are white,cause white people always wantto come out of their mouth withthat same type of crazy talk. And that clearly shows their owninsecurities.I have no beef with you, I just wish that you would stop generalizing so much. But then again, you are awfully young, so maybe after you have had to make it on your own in the real world (and not the one Mommy set up for you), youjust might realize that things are not always what they seem on the surface.

You can call any damn thing you want weak. You have already decided where you want to put the blame. I notice you haven't said sh!t about annihilating the Indians and stealing the land.

The government steals tax money to supposedly finance the schools and you say the parents should educating the kids anyway. Then what did they pay the taxes for?

Look at the planes from WWII. They were designed by engineers with slide rules. They didn't have electronic computers. P-51 Mustang 450 mph, P-38 Lightning 414 mph. That was 25 years before the moon landing. It is now 36 years after the moon landing. The Concord has been designed, built, flown and discontinued. We have computers coming out of our ears. We have robots on Mars.

And Alan Greenspan and the entire economics profession says nothing about the planned obsolescence of cars. Says nothing about how much has been lost on depreciation of all that garbage since World War II. I estimate it is around TEN TRILLION Y2K DOLLARS.

And you want to call it WEAK.

I think you're a typical White boy with his EGO out of proportion to his INTELLECT and you never even heard of the information I am giving you because your lying moron economists are leading all you dumb White people by the nose.

I challenge you. Get an economics textbook. Find what it says about depreciation of durable consumer goods.

umbrarchist

ps - Kids have spent more time watching television then listening to their parents and maybe more than going to school. Who controls the television? Don't you see how stupid it has made the White kids? Attention Deficit Disorder! Is that because television provides an abnormal amount of visual stimulation? Like nothing that has ever existed in the human environment before.

I honestly don't think you understand the way capitalism works and how few poor people "pull themselves out" of poverty. I don't think you understand that the driving philosophy behind capitalism is to blame the individual for failures whether they are at fault or not. Prior to modern society this was not the case, the individual was not blamed for being poor, it was understood that god had a grand plan and the poor were poor because that is how god set up society etc a theocracy of sorts. The idea of choice and choosing to "pull yourself up by the bootstraps" is a recent concepted espoused to capitalism, modernity, and democracy.

I know that actually puting an end to poverty is a complicated business...probably impossible. But is it a crime to have hope? To ask people to work harder?

Immigrants to Britain have a sayin: "You have to work twice as hard to even compete with the white man"... A lot of immigrant communities believe this and it drives them toget better qualificationssimply to apply for the same jobs as white folks. This is a fact when you live in the white west. If you don't work extremely hard, you won't make it to the top!

I'm not suggesting that its easy, I'm just suggesting that there are people that have stopped working(xtra xtra)hard andsince fallen by the way side.

Two interesting things occured in Western culture around 1900. The 2nd industrial revolution made a big jump in productivity possible and Sigmund Freud's ideas about the human mind began to spread. These two things set the stage for psychologically manipulated consumerism. These two statements make an interesting combination.

"you understand the way capitalism works" and "You have to work twice as hard to even compete"

Could it be it is not capitalism any more and getting people to compete and work twice as hard is just the new manipulation technique. I have had human resources people trying to run their idiotic mind games on me. If we get the money just to consume it away to compensate for an inferiority complex that doesn't solve the problems. We have to know the mind game to deal with the economic power game.

ps - "free education" more like free misinformation and psychological sabotage.

This issue cuts across the academic landscape.Many people assume that sending an untrained and unmotivated child to a private school would be better than a "crappy" public school.If the child is given the spark to be intellectually curious in their youth then it won't matter where they went to school.I've went to private and "crappy"public schools.It doesn't stop nothing.

I agree with you somewhat on this wasteful and out of control spending of the federal government.National defense should always be a major priority.

And Alan Greenspan and the entire economics profession says nothing about the planned obsolescence of cars. Says nothing about how much has been lost on depreciation of all that garbage since World War II. I estimate it is around TEN TRILLION Y2K DOLLARS.



And you want to call it WEAK.


That is weak.You've gone off the deep end.

I think you're a typical White boy with his EGO out of proportion to his INTELLECT and you never even heard of the information I am giving you because your lying moron economists are leading all you dumb White people by the nose.




I challenge you. Get an economics textbook. Find what it says about depreciation of durable consumer goods.

You are saying nothing "groundbreaking".

Like nothing that has ever existed in the human environment before.

You can't even stay focused on the subject.I think you're the one that has been watching too much tv,white boy....
