isn't his goal to make us a 3td. world country............ well I guess we found one thing he can do1

Schools are broke because it is a violation of Federal law to refuse to enroll a child of an Illegal Alien and providing them a teacher(s) who speak their language. Just think how much that adds on your tax bill.

Now we are going to get 100.000 more "refugees" by pen stroke. . .

Incredible.....and thier still turning the other cheek to the no money situation ....I understand they are just printing money now....thats why obambi hasn't had to beg for another dept ceiling and they have plenty of it for themselves and the taxpayers take care of the US Dept and the other unnecessary bullshit they create lol.bob

YES  and as part of no child left behind our schools are penalized if they don't graduate in 12 years, so the schools throw more resources at those kids and as long as ours receive a passing grade that's all they care about! I think that's why some of the education standards have been tweaked, so more run thru the machine without causing a hiccup!

And heaven forbid a parent actually gets held accountable for what I would guess is the majority of kids troubles in school. Parents let them stay up too late, don't instill good work ethic I.e. Homework/studying and if the teacher tries to correct bad behavior with what very little theta can do parents call up and yell at a teacher for making their baby mind. My wife's a teacher and there's no way in hell is last more than a week at that job. First mouthy kid gets slapped and when their parents come in to complain about me slapping their kid, I'd slap them too.  Sounds harsh I know but enough of this raising sissies that don't mind and alway get a trophy no matter what.

A couple years ago at the h.s.our kids attended a large 14 yr old boy walked to the window (while class was in session) and spit on it and began to lick it simulating a sex act! The teacher told him to clean the window, and sit down! The boy who was a head taller than the teacher,got in her face and began to verbally abuse her!( to the cheers of his classmates) the teacher pushed him away. The boy's parents complained and she nearly lost her job! This is a well rated mostly upper middle class school.The teacher was required to take"sensitivity training" to keep her job!! My daughter said the teacher was one of the most pleasant teachers she had! Heavy gunner. You're right I couldn't be a teacher! Our teachers each had a 3/4" plywood paddle on their desks and weren't afraid to use it! A classmate of mine (now a successful businessman) when asked why he didn't do his homework  replied"I didn't feel like it" There was an audible gasp from the rest of us,right before the teacher knocked him right out of his desk onto the floor! Times have changed! Lol The kid probably received "more of the same" if his dad heard what happened at school!

With other fees mentioned, this morning a pipeline broke in Alabama. Just wondering when the gasoline prices will escalate?Have not heard anything here at work. But usually don't. 

[Mike]

What a bunch of crock. Just another opportunity for the government to gouge us for more money on this gasoline crisis. Thursday evening we were $1.92 for 87 octane. Now many fuel markets have ran out of fuel. Why can't they run out of beer or cigarettes instead of fuel? Now it is Saturday night still no fuel for many markets and most that have any fuel are gouging us for $2.59 cents per gallon. I've heard as much as $4.00 per gallon. 

The strangest thing i've noticed is the trains that normally run every 20 to 25 minutes near my house, have not ran all night or today. It is like the railroad has stopped all of that main line runs. I also noticed that I could not hear any truck or car traffic running on I- 65 Interstate near my home. It is really strange to not hear any traffic coming of the ridge.

Price fixing is the norm in the fuel market on a smaller scale it happens here every weekend every station in town goes up 15-30 cents a gallon just about every Thursday. Funny thing is not all of them get a delivery on Thursday same gas they were selling the rest of the last week just added the extra to it but every station in town is the exact same price on weekends so price fixing happens here every weekend. Add that to the state grant our cops got now the state pays them to stand at busy intersections and look into your car to make sure your seat belt in on got checked last weekend at 5;15 AM on a sunday morning on my way out hunting two cops standing there and no traffic burning up grant money that we pay for in tax money.

It's gone up around here around 40 cents past few months I only gas up once every 2 weeks and Everytime I do it's gone up a nickel or so pretty crooked for a resource they dig outa the ground for free lol thank god I don't use much of it 9 gallons every 2 weeks feel bad for people that can't afford to keep paying more single moms for instance that are already strapped ridiculous 👎👎👎bob

gotta love to fact that at any given moment some higher up gets a fart stuck crooked and all of a sudden the price of gas goes up. oh the pipeline broke, oh we cant produce as much as were using, oh the middle east is giving us trouble. but at any given time you can see ships out to sea outside ny and nj that just sit and wait to come into shore til its convenient but we're all so nieve in the governments eyes. no one is as smart as them.....

Two weeks ago on Bloomberg news they were wondering when the oil futures was going to increase it's profits, seems a gift from heaven that the pipeline "failed" and  profits.

prices went up.

Guys, it's a little more complicated than that.  Every phase of the process is competitive as hell, from exploration, drilling, well logging, production, transportation, refining, distribution, etc.  And never mind the various permitting and compliance costs.  A new super tanker can cost upwards of $100 mil, and day rate rentals run to $100K.  Wanna go offshore, rent a drill ship, $200K to $700K a day depending on the type.   Dry hole, tough banana.  Trust me, the prices you see at the pump are the best result for the consumer of an intensely competitive business..

It is competitive grayhair but here's also a ton of politics and lobbying going on too. Once OPEC got tired of us drilling and importing less they flood our markets with oil (our government lets them do it) and suddenly it's not profitable to drill anymore. That's why the Bakken boom died so quickly.
