TEXAS EDUCATION IS SHAMEFUL!

I tire of reading how our Governor, Rick Perry, our Legislature and George Bush, our immediate past President of the United States, praise our state and how great we educate our children. Statistics don’t lie, just politicians. If it were not bad enough we have recently slashed our spending by significant amounts.

Lack of leadership ignores the loss of a huge source of income that would improve our educational system. Lack of political courage prevents the people of Texas the opportunity to even vote on a common sense solution.

We have a lottery. We have horse and dog racing. We even have one casino the state has tried to shut down owned by the Indians. They did close the Indian casino near Livingston and put the Coushatta tribe back into a worse than poverty existence.

People will gamble and it is a legislative action and/or a voter decision to permit legalized casino gambling in a state. Unless you are blind, legally incompetent or a member of the Texas Legislature you know that you can visit casinos in New Mexico, Oklahoma and Louisiana as most are positioned on or near the Texas border. If you have visited any of these locations and you are not legally blind or a member of the Texas Legislature, 90% of the cars will have Texas license plates. 

I will not or have not ever supported any candidate for a state elected position that will not allow the people of Texas to at least vote to allow casino gambling. This is not a moral issue, it is just plain old common sense.

Let me share some facts to support my concern for Texas educational improvement and how our tax losses have likely helped our surrounding states.

Ask.com reports that Texas ranks 50th and in last place on the percentage of people 25 years old that have a high school or a higher diploma. We proudly come in last with 79.9%.

The latest National Education Association (NEA) in 2010 ranked Texas 50th and in last place. The NEA report for 2011 of state spending per pupil has Texas ranked at 41st with $8611. New Mexico came in 35th at $9070 and Louisiana came in 23rd at $10,723.

I could bore you with several pages of similar statistics but I found one that seems to be the most significant measure of educational success I could locate. This is the actual scores of all students in the state who took the SAT exam. I found this information on Yahoo Voices should you desire to verify my source.    

The SAT scores are in four categories as follow;

1. Critical Reading, Texas average was 486 and was 46th in ranking by state. The national average score was 610. Oklahoma came in 11th, Louisiana 18th and New Mexico 21st.

2. Math, Texas average was 506 and was 38th in ranking by state. The national average score was 615. Oklahoma came in 13th, Louisiana 17th and New Mexico 21st.

3. Writing, Texas average was 475 and was 47th in ranking by state. The national average score was 588. Oklahoma came in 14th, Louisiana 16th and New Mexico 21st.  

4 Total score, Texas average was 1467 and was 45th in ranking by state. The national average score was 1509. Oklahoma came in 12th, Louisiana 18th, New Mexico 21st.

It appears to me that there are several conclusions that are evident based on these statistics;

a. Texas revenue has possibly helped the school systems in the surrounding states.

b. Surrounding states have better educational systems.

c. Surrounding states have better Legislatures.

d. Texas priorities are misguided.

In my opinion Texas leaders are focused on forcing teachers to teach students on how to pass tests that are not used in other states rather than educating them. We have spent hundreds of millions with foreign companies who have developed tests and measure the results and blame the teachers for dismal results.

Our educational system in Texas is broken, leaderless and not focused on letting our teachers educate our children like they did when I went to school. We need to better train and pay our teachers, legalize casino gambling and dedicate every penny to improving our children’s education.

“INVOLUNTARY SLAVERY” – A NEW TERM DEFINED.

I have researched the terms Slavery, Indentured Servants, Forced Labor, Chattel Slavery, Bonded Labor, Contemporary Slavery, Forced Labor and involuntary Servitude. All are against the law in the United States today. However all have been used in the US during history. What we have today is a Liberal-Progressive movement that has and still is, using these methods of mind control rather than actual bondage. This provides the same result due to fear, illegal activity and reducing the intelligence of the poor by deliberate design.

What definition would you use to explain what was done to separate the indigenous population of American Indians from the illegal aliens, that has forced them into a form of bondage that still exists today. They are paid to just shut up and live on reservations. Maybe we should have taken them to the Mexican border and escorted them into Mexico?

We have been watching the reverse of this idea being used by Mexico to make sure the poor must learn to swim or climb fences to survive. Do they really want to come to America? Probably not but do they really have any other options beyond starvation, extortion or true Slavery if they stay in Mexico?

We pay to bring the poor from the Arab/Muslim world to escape the same fate. Why? We allow political chicanery to bring in the poor from just about every country on earth. Why do we force the Hispanics to swim or climb fences and just ignore they are here? At least they work for a living until they discover welfare pays better wages.

The Liberal-Progressives movement has mastered the use of the Involuntary Slavery to control the destiny of the Hispanics for far too many years. These people were poorly educated before they got here and Democrats make sure they have to live in the shadows for fear of being sent back. The Liberal-Progressive movement also makes sure they remain poor, under-educated and rely on the Democratic saviors for food, medical care and protection from the mean Conservatives who want them to be Americans, speak English and enjoy freedom.

The days of the Hispanics being wanderers or Nomads as the Arabs profess to be may be ending. It appears that some Hispanics have removed the Democratic noose, gained more education and have decided to be leaders rather than sheep.

Some five years ago the Liberal-Progressives finally found mixer race Pied Piper they allowed to become President. Since then, with Obama as their puppet, they have had a field day wrecking the Constitution. Using Obama they have strengthened their hold on the Blacks who believe they are in control of America. Are they in for a surprise when they discover they are just Involuntary Slaves destined to remain poor and depend on the government for everything with “Obamamoney”? The Blacks had their chance to prove they have leadership stature and blew it with hatred and desire for Socialism. They want a civil war now for some idiotic reason.

With Ted Cruz, Marco Rubio and the people who are training to get the attention of the Hispanic Involuntary Slaves, watch how fast we see the Hispanic switch to the conservative movement. Even the Blacks, who seek economic and political freedom but they do not even know what they have and are being manipulated by the Liberal-Progressive Slave owners who control America and most of the world. They can’t call it Slavery as it would backfire. They have proven it is the most effective way to buy the votes to stay in power.

Now for my definition of Involuntary Slavery;

“People who are unaware that the use of power, money, food, threats, intimidation, mind control and propaganda is being used to convince them that they are better off living off of the hard work of others and let the government provide cradle to grave subsistence”.

You Democrats laugh now as it will take a few years for the class of educated Hispanics to root you out. McCain and the legions of Republicans-in-name-only politicians will be gone and the Liberal-Progressive movement will be reversed. Unfortunately, as I previously predicted, there will be another civil war and the Blacks will not be on the winning side this time. Life on a reservation like the Indians enjoy will be far better than swimming the Rio Grande River headed south. Even the African nations would not take old Jessie, Al or the legions of Black radicals in Congress today. Maybe they could try Russia.

GOVERNMENT WISDOM

 

The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on from generation to generation, says that;

When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, best strategy is to dismount.  

However, in government more advanced strategies are always employed, such as:

1. Buying a stronger whip.

2. Changing riders.

3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.

4.  Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.

5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.

6. Reclassifying the dead horse as living-impaired.

7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.

8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.

9. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead horse’s performance.

10. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse’s performance. 

11. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially  more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses 

12. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.

 

And of course….

13. Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.

Thanks Jim

GOVERNMENT PROBLEM SOLVING.

 The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed on  from generation to generation, says that:
“When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, best strategy is to dismount.”

In government, and other equally dysfunctional organizations, more advanced strategies are usually taken, such as;

1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing  riders.
3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
4.  Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.
5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be  included.
6. Reclassifying the dead horse as  living-impaired.
7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead  horse.
8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase  speed.
9. Providing additional funding and/or training to  increase the dead horse’s performance.
10. Doing a productivity  study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse’s performance.
11. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to  be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially  more to the bottom line than do some other horses.
12. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.
And of course….
13. Promoting the dead  horse to a supervisory position. And the best action to stop oil production.

14. Making dead horses an endangered species.

Thanks Allan, i’ll share the wisdom.

AMERICAN ROYALTY-PART 5

Some republicans in the Senate recently showed some common sense and leadership that is refreshing. Someone in Washington finally acknowledged that the people are fed up with irresponsible spending. They actually blocked the pork laden “omnibus” spending bill and a few actually promised to eliminate “earmarks” in the future.

“Earmarks” are actually a way to hide ridiculous expenditures that are promised to those in their local districts or States so they can get re-elected forever. Another way to elevate themselves to “Royalty” status that we have been revealing.

It was sick to see the Senate Appropriations Committee Chairman, Daniel Inouye D-Hawaii seek support for the “Oinker” from some of the republicans like Thad Cochran R-Mississippi, Robert Bennett R-Utah, and Kit Bond R-Missiouri among others to try to muster 60 votes necessary to stop a filibuster that Jim Dement R-South Carolina and others including some democrats had promised. He was in a hurry as some of his old republican cronies like Bennett, Bond and George Voinovich were not returning to the Senate next year and were immune to worrying about re-election.

Even though Inouye’s measures would have replaced a slightly less expensive bill than the one passed by the House of Representatives. The House bill did not contain earmarks like road and agriculture reasearch projects, water treatment plants and grants for local anti-drug programs. House democrats would have jumped at a chance to accept the Senate version that had $80 million in grants to States and Indian Tribes to preserve pacific salmon and 13 million in clean water grants for Alaska native villages and other rural areas.

The methods utilized by both democrats and republicans to wait until the last two months of a term to pass spending of anything is deplorable. They sit on their hands for 22 months naming courthouses and planning for re-election before they go to work. Why do they do this every cycle?  Because we let them. Who is to blame, we are because we allow them to maintain “Royalty” status.

January will bring an opportunity for the newly elected republican majority in the US House of Representatives. The new Speaker, John Boehner R-Ohio will be the most powerful person in Washington for the next two years. We have all read how the House can stop some of the madness by just not funding the programs like “Obamacare”.

The newly elected majority in the House of Representatives and the real Senate conservatives will be able to even do more by eliminating useless government agencies. Why do we have a Department of Energy and Education for two? They do nothing but interfere with the States and were non-existent for some 200 years. How many of you common people really think that the republicans will actually do anything drastic to reduce the Washington power mismanagement? I don’t think they will do anything significant, just enough to get re-elected. Until we throw them all out and start a third party, nothing will change in the power structure because none of them want to!

For anyone else who is fed up with the “Royalty” status we have in Washington, do something. If you feel incapable then send me any information you feel will help and I will publish verified factual data. I know that I am just one 80-year-old veteran who is fed up, but at least I’m trying my best to stir up as many as I can.

My next part of this series will be to show some more inequities that the “Royal” have over us common Folks. Please send me any examples you might have read to show the differences. I read every article I can find to create these messages.
