WHAT HAS BEEN ALLOWED IS THE INCURSION OF AN OLIGARCHY
In my last blog written in July 2017, I opened with the following observation: Within the core of our freedoms, lie the avenues powerful individuals use to take away the rights of citizens and the controls of government designed and evolved to serve all. Americans are now aware of the reality that subversive forces have…

ENDING THE FUTILITY CAUSED BY INACTION BLOG PART III

The USDOE has given access to the top levels of our education leadership and policy making to people who have never been vetted or elected,…

Two Systems Collide. Representative Democracy Ends

They see themselves as decision makers who should shape the world (i.e., similar to the ‘rule of the few’ model used in China). They believe in their system of unquestioned force-based…
