I made this same post a couple of weeks ago. The sheeple just ignore the harsh reality of economics. But since 'the children' are educated by the government who do you think they are taught to direct their ire at. It certainly isn't governmet.

And BTW- the cumalative taxes on gasoline average 47 cents nationwide.

Since I started reading about John Taylor Gatto he has become my newest hero. I don't don't use the 'H' word lightly. I am not one that thinks every single firefighter, cop, EMT etc are heroes. Not even all of our brave men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces should be bestowed that status. They are all great Americans, but not all heroes. Since Sept 11th that term has been widely over used. To bestow the title too lightly diminishes those that show true heroism. IMO anyway.
