It is because of "public education" that the majority of the people in this country actually became literate. Can you provide anything of a similar note that a capitalist thief such as yourself ever has happened to "produce" or "contribute to society"?
In fact, other than cheating on your taxes and exploiting the shit out of the few "workers" that you have, what is it that a guy such as yourself actually does to contribute to society? Keep CFMB afloat?

This isn't a knock on you personally, as I know you have a beef with JORR, but generally speaking, it's easy to preach from a very secure perch.

damn

:lol: that is quite the statement.



It's not true. Except for the last part. Seacrest and I provide a platform for his drivel. Not the other way around.

He can't actually pay taxes because he has no money. All the money he has IS taxes that were extracted from others. That's the magic.

When you look at the reading levels/literacy of CPS students, that's probably a topic you should avoid.

What are the odds that I pay a higher rate of "taxes" than you do tax cheat? Guarantee no one here will ever take that bet will they?

Maybe we change the day to "Taxpayers Day" since ltg can actually tell me who taxpayers are.

I hear you, but I don't find a random day off to be some great perk. Besides, if we look hard enough, we could find something that others "enjoy" that we think we should.

We revere police and firemen. Few people would consider them government. Most police never fire a weapon in a 20+ year career, and most firefighters never have to go inside a burning building. They're great gigs to have. They also get far more perks than we do in addition to our tax dollars. I have no problem with it.



I don't revere cops or firefighters. It's a job. And in Chicago a well-paying one with an absurd pension that few get in the private sector. I'm not resentful. Get what you can get. But at some point people won't/can't pay for it. It's not sustainable. Then what?

And I don't think government workers should be unionized. You want to be a PUBLIC SERVANT, be one. You want to serve yourself, get a private job and contribute taxes rather than consuming them.

In comparison to most of the country and the world at large, CPS does well. Private schools do better for obvious reasons. They can be selective.

The public school system is definitely flawed. I don't think it can be disputed our country is far more educated and better off because of it.

Government works! :wink:

See if you can follow this. How can you pay taxes when you have no product? Any money you have comes from taxes that others pay. Sure, you pay some back. In other circumstances we'd call that a Ponzi.

You too considering that you didn't even know the meaning of the word "indigenous" only an hour ago. Quite obvious you don't know the meaning of the word "literacy" either. And what does it suggest about your "quality of education" that the school you attended, (Gordon Tech) has been closed for what is it, 20 years now? School was so great that they had to shut the motherfucker down 2 decades ago.

First "indigenous", then "literacy", and now Grand Poobah Jorr is going to proceed to tell the (CFMB World at least) the meaning of the word "taxes". You can't stop this loon. You can only hope to contain him :roll: :roll: :roll:

I've never claimed that Gordon offered some great "quality of education." Most of us did know how to read though and a few of us actually learned how to change a set of spark plugs. However, the school never "shut down" and in fact, still exists with a new name and location.

Hey Jorr, you might not know this, but the MAJORITY of CPS Students actually KNOW HOW TO READ TOO!

Hey CFMB members, I guess this what YOUR POOBAH means when he states that he keeps the place "afloat" so that everyone (namely himself) can continue to post meaningless "drivel" aye?

Gordon Tech became DePaul College Prep...no?

*edit* Yes it did, and it was eight years ago.

This land belonged to dinosaurs before anyone else. They made a living up in the northwest/central. Those were back in the days when you could drive from NJ to Morroco in like 30 minutes. Then everything was destroyed by a Mexico-born hurricane which is probably why 50% of the population is primordially hellbent on keeping them out.

Then you should have no problem with "knowing" that the "accomplishment" of Columbus really was not much of an "accomplishment" at all.

Agree with what you said earlier (about Indigenous Day), but not this.

He didn't "discover" America. That was the "accomplishment" that he was most noted for when I grew up. And it was all a lie.

If you believe that the guy pays his "fair share of taxes" then I have a bridge in Harvey to sell ya! As a matter of fact, I'd bet a dollar to a donut that this little operation of his is just another in a long line of "businesses" that he uses solely as a means of deducting money from his "taxes". What say you?
