First Loses Control Of all the recent babblings, no one has yet convinced me that an attack would not be motivated by "economic interests" or is even modestly justified. There is a reason why most American's do not support war with Iraq (according to a multitude of polls). I mean, let's face it, our government is not known for it's humanitarian bombings. I can just hear it now..."No really, we want to save the people of Iraq from this evil man Saddam. Oops, we killed a few thousand civilians, no worries, we almost caught him that time! Oh, and we have absolutely no interest in oil prospects there"...bullshit. Did anyone read that article I linked to? Explain THAT to me and then we'll talk. Open up your freaking eyes. Where do our interests lie? It’s certainly not in establishing Democracies for the benefit of people living under “oppressive governments”. The only reason we wish to establish a "democracy" is for the purpose of expanding the global economy. A democracy would allow U.S. corporations (who by the way are responsible for our President's ability to run for the seat in the first place) to pay workers in our newly established "democratic countries" $0.05/hour to do the same job a working American would receive $6.50 for in the U.S. Damn that minimum wage, it prevents us from maximizing our profits! There's a reason why GM's profits were at an unexpected high for the year. Pack up Charlie, we're movin’ to Mexico! Some have suggested that Saddam was connected to the events of 9/11, which was quite interesting, but none the less completely false. Don't you think we would have bombed the hell out of Iraq already if the great leaders of our nation could actually prove this connection to the U.N. (it's not like they aren't in support of our little war on terrorism). Hell, we did it to Afghanistan, didn't we? And please, don't even get me started on the education system. If private schools are the way to go, well then I guess the government is willing to fork over $10,000-20,000 big ones every year to every school aged child in the U.S, right? Because that's how much the good private schools coast now a day. But if I do recall, public school that are funded about 1,000 per child do just fine. In Detroit they hardly get $60 per student. Anyone who tells me that money is not the issues has obviously not educated him or herself about the crisis in education today. Hell, why don't we just cut funding to all public schools completely while we are at it? Did I also mention that in a private school, a board of trustees controls what the children learn (their curriculum), not the community or a PTA. I thought we lived in a fucking democracy! I'm not going to have my children brainwashed in a private school where board members are the chairmen of Ford or Dow Chemical. And believe me, I've observed the curriculums that are taught under this type of a system. I think all students have a right to education, not just those who can afford it. I want to have the choice.
