When I start threads saying that America is ed, it's this sort of idiocy I'm referring to. You are ing clueless. You have no sense of history and functionally, you're caustically illiterate. Shut the up. You don't even begin to know what you're talking about. |

I think what we really need is more parties.
You can take that to mean whatever you want it to. |

Well I'm immensly dissapointed in our governments attempts to withdraw monies from students trying to obtain further education. The system in its current form includes encumbrences that prevent students from satisfying their educational requirements by the current and outdated "credit" and "default" system. Institutions need to look at a way for older students to obtain additional financing to either enter trade schools or regular universities. The work environment that currently exists no longer allows for moderatley educated individuals. We also need to promote additional reform in primary and secondary education systems. State and Federal monies need to be more prominent in our nations school systems. Cutting funds is not going to help the next few generations.
Additionally, and as I proposed earlier, we need to stop handing out paychecks to people that are qualified to work, but who choose not to. That single "intitlement" is bankrupting our country. Its not right for someone to sit at home and watch their soaps, get high, use food stamps to go buy filet mignon and not have to do a single thing for it. So, as I suggested, we should mandatory drugtest, at the reciepents expense, in order to receive intitlements. Anyone's test results that turn up positive would be suspended from whatever programs they're participating in.
Also, and probably the most important. We need to go back through our idealogy of blank check spending. Most departments operating within our state and federal governments spend enormeous amounts of money on simple things that ordinary consumers get at more reasonable cost. I think its been told before of a $1k toilet seat- really?
We also need to eliminate (even at the cost of job loss) outdated or unsustainable departments. These departments or organizations that don't pay for themselves should be eliminated. Corporations cutback all the time. The government opperates in reverse, and just creates more money. With the advent of such significant technologies, these individuals, to whom are perceived as qualified, could most likely obtain jobs in the private sector, thus making comparable monies, and spurring economic growth w/ their additional taxes and work place contributions, e.g.: non subsidized healthcare versus subsidized and other contributions.
When we couple these ideas into actions, most likely the result will be a slight double dip in our current recession but a more stable and sustainable long term nation.
Otherwise, I really don't think we're too far off from a civil war from extreme left wingers and conservative right wingers trying to protect the viability of our nation. Right now we're screwed. |
