my campaign platform in 2012 is switching defense with education, NASA, NSF and giving more love to energy and DOT.


sounds like socialism...commie!

but really, education is easily the best investment...in the long run...which is why all the old fucks in the house and senate don't give a fuck about it because they want a quick turn of the buck from their corporate backers.

The anarchist in me hates to say this but our country needs to walk the way of Norway, sweden, and other "socialized" democracies in giving full funding to kids who want to go to school.


socialism is an economic term, not political, and we live in a socialist democracy. the scandinavian method would work in some states but most people in this country just don't want to pay taxes, so there will never be a federal education mandate. but most americans owe everything to the progressives of the past hundred years. you know because you're a libertarian. i don't get libertarians, their utopia would be swallowed by a corporatocracy first.

a healthy, long-living, educated society is a government's best long-term investment, no shit. governments never do what's best in the long term. fuck, we're seeing reaganomics all over again now that the gop controls the house. expect to see this over the next economic cycle - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Starve_the_beast
