I hope everybody reads the link you posted in your OP from HuffPo. How anybody could object to this is beyond me.

'Cause god knows, our liberal dominated educational system is working soooo well, especially in the inner cities.~sarcasm~

Remember in 2009 all the little kids marching and praising Obama. Yeah, that's what we need....not

" Comming to a School near you, The Koch Youth "

ROFLOL

What a spelling gaffe !!!!

And It looks like the "Koch Plan" might be a little better than the endless student loan debt system generated by the ultra-Liberal systems that get richer than the Koch Brothers.

I guess Koch Industries *IS* a "person" after all !!

This style should get the kiddos interested in learning, it's hip, contemporary, good beat and carries the message.



perhaps the Koch bros could get these folks under contract as PR guys.

"become contributing members of society"


There is absolutely nothing wrong with that.

We have too many takers, and not enough makers.

I guess sitting on the couch. Watching reality TV, and posting lives away on facebook, and getting that monthly stipend from that benevolent government is 'the way to be'.



That's no way to be. It supposed to be work hard for an honest days pay, but there's nothing honest about pay these days, but many continue to work hard.

And honestly, do you really think that all Americans watch reality TV, get a check from the gov AND have FB? hmm

That is a question worthy of it's own Thread.

But here is something else causing a huge problem.


The curriculum plays down the role of Thomas Jefferson among the founding fathers, questions the separation of church and state, and claims that the U.S. government was infiltrated by Communists during the Cold War.

If I may offer a small suggestion. . . .

If all schools were concentrating on education; reading, writing, math, science, history, etc. .

And not on liberal/leftist agendas, then there would be no basis for a conservative attempt to address the education curriculum.

Leave politics, ideologies, political correctness, religion, OUT OF THE SCHOOLS!

Just . . . . (what's the term?). . . ummm. . . . . "educate".

On that we can agree.

As to any liberal/leftist agenda in schools. I'm sorry but I just don't see it. Maybe because I'm in Texas, so these are the only schools I have first hand knowledge of. There is already a religious right bent to the majority of them.

Except....



It is revealing to compare Charles and David Koch with the owners and managers of the New York Times Company. The Koch brothers employ a growing, highly-paid work force of 60,000 in the United States, around one-third of whom are unionized. Koch Industries enjoys excellent relationships with its unions. The New York Times Company, on the other hand, employs a shrinking, largely ill-paid work force, and is embroiled in a long-running feud with its unions.

Koch Industries Responds to New York Times Smears







Koch’s Georgia Pacific unit “has positive collective bargaining relationships with its unions,” Jon Geenen, international vice president of the United Steelworkers union, wrote in a blog post on the group’s website.

“The company’s workforce is highly unionized,” Geenen wrote. “It is not inaccurate to say these are among the best- paid manufacturing jobs in America.”

Well they have to do something, the youth doesn't support there ideology, so what better way to change this with good old fashioned fascist propaganda towards a captive audience....

Seriously I trust the youth growing up here today to see it for what it is. This is why the youth today already rejects republican, tea party and religious ideology.

Are you claiming that the Kochs are Union friendly?


The Americans for Prosperity group, a Tea Party group that is a Koch Brothers front, has put up a website and petition called www.standwithwalker.com. The website attacks all collective bargaining – not just for public employees’ unions.

I have seen them portrayed as pro union, pro environment. If Kansas and Wisconsin don't implode because of there idiotic pro tea party policy's already they will be in full decline by 2016, the next few election years should be interesting.

Remember, anything the left does is evil and will cause the complete destruction of our way of life unless we undermine that way of life first to save ourselves from it.

Wow. Listen to you spouting FASCIST propaganda slogans. Big fan of the Koch Method? What's with your worship of the wealthy?


Better than worshiping at the alter of statolatry like all progressives do.

People need to get over it.

Some people will always have more than others.

In the past 10,000 years of mankind that has NEVER changed.

Btw the way rob from the haves, and give to the have nots is FASCIST !


Are you writing the curriculum for the Koch brothers?

Are you insane? 10,000 years of the subjugation and exploitation of the masses by the powerful few and you don't think the super rich are the takers? The GDP goes up at the same time as unemployment? Income inequality is skyrocketing at an alarming rate? The super rich are piling additional billions on their massive fortunes — where does this come from? There's nobody robbing them.

Did you miss Nick Hanauer's op-ed in Politico?


You probably don’t know me, but like you I am one of those .01%ers, a proud and unapologetic capitalist. I have founded, co-founded and funded more than 30 companies across a range of industries—from itsy-bitsy ones like the night club I started in my 20s to giant ones like Amazon.com, for which I was the first nonfamily investor. Then I founded aQuantive, an Internet advertising company that was sold to Microsoft in 2007 for $6.4 billion. In cash. My friends and I own a bank. I tell you all this to demonstrate that in many ways I’m no different from you. Like you, I have a broad perspective on business and capitalism. And also like you, I have been rewarded obscenely for my success, with a life that the other 99.99 percent of Americans can’t even imagine. Multiple homes, my own plane, etc., etc. You know what I’m talking about.



If we don’t do something to fix the glaring inequities in this economy, the pitchforks are going to come for us. No society can sustain this kind of rising inequality. In fact, there is no example in human history where wealth accumulated like this and the pitchforks didn’t eventually come out. You show me a highly unequal society, and I will show you a police state. Or an uprising. There are no counterexamples. None. It’s not if, it’s when.


There's a man who understands the real lesson of history.
