Education Nation. Education follies. Its for the kids…..not foe the adults. Its for the agenda… not for the learning. Its for control of the curriculum…. control the future. It for the manufacturing of the curriculum… the manufacturing of the past. Break the unions. Break the bank. Hire better teachers. give them grief. Hire worse teachers, attract them with positive attitude. Want the best. Offer the least. Want the best. Offer spit. Skate with the heroes who demand no rules of conduct of the students that teachers must accommodate.
Want good works and fair results….buy the political, sway the political, buy this weeks fashion, buy last weeks fashion, buy next weeks fashion. Rally the troops. Make them love their work. Make them fear the whip. Fear is good…creativity flows.
Power to the consumer. Power to the entertained. Feed the impulses of the immature. Demand not maturity from the student…only that he be pleased by the performer. Let the unknowledgeable pass on the knowledgeable. Let the needy demand bread and circuses in order to learn…the poor babies all.
Education, the bottom up experience with the needs of the student dictating the actions of the teacher. Teacher is a servant, chief cook and bottle washer….. there to service the untrained mind of the untrained mind…. there to be dictated to beg to be given the chance to get a poor nod of sweet approval from the ten year old mind. Knowledge earned in professional training confers the right to be a whupped nanny to a spoiled child.
Mock the rancid of the product deliverers as you may………Mock the rotten teacher as you should…but product needs consumer… this product needs consumers who are there to consume, not vote. the authority figure dispensing knowledge and wisdom to those who need to acquire it…tail wagging dog and dumb demanding its due…..America today.
Be spoon fed and catered to. From this epoch tough minded learning ensues. What are the costs of little attention when the show isn’t good enough? Tomorrow is another politician.

Politics / Dominance Games: Revolution….The facts of livable survival. The fools errand of the naive
Posted in Commentary, current events, News, opinion, political analysis, political science, Politics, Uncategorized, writing with tags Commentary, Democracy, Government, news, opinion, political analysis, political commentary, politics, power, Public interest, Righteousness, social criticism, Social Sciences, Unintended consequences, writing on June 9, 2011 by B SchiffWe can best be protected from extreme evil in the political sphere by spreading around power as much as possible. The philosopher king or the wise council of elders may be, in their pure forms, the most admirable and efficient forms of governance. They may bring the best of virtue, vision, majesty, bearing and trust. These forms may be the abject model of all seekers of wisdom and truth, all seekers of greater, better existence for greater, better political entities, systems, states, facts. Wisdom and virtue flow undiluted, unfragmented from implementer. Implementation is a dream..
Virtues in these epochs of rule are great but as it is with all such things the templates always seem to have equal and opposite flip sides. The greater good is matched by the greater evil and in real terms governance is best served when as a staunch representative of protection from harm. The positive is as a bonus…an unexpected bonus of maturity and purpose, reflection and wisdom…that which when it comes… survives…leaves hope.
This is as close to safety we can come to in a world dependent upon the rational and irrational hates and passions of the bubbling classes. Passion has its virtues…and its price.
In these aspects and respects…we crave our loved version of mass influence…our republic…our democracy. All done well, good may prosper, right may flourish, balance may be achieved. All done not so well…most of the mob survives the long knives, the hounds, the wolves, the cuts and the destruction.
Politics is kick ass and dangerous, armed and dangerous, dangerous and dangerous. Grateful we are for what we see as the limits to the mass dangers we face, in the forms of the base outcomes we can endure. We bless the phlegmatic, the powerless, the resigned and the the facts of livable survival. Seeking the better and the good is always the fools errand of the naive known to the knowing and the wise.
