The Hutchinson Effect: Anti-gravity, clean energy, and government cover-up

To the second-hander, the typical government bureaucrat, the strike driven unionized school teacher, the political whores of K-Street, the Black Friday line slut, the pro-tax legislator, the latte sipping prostitutes with diamond rings the size of car tires and asses to match, they believe that all science is produced through the institutional process—from government being aligned with colleges to produce the science of our day.  However, as proven in the fabulous book Forbidden Archeology, our modern age has found extensive evidence of a cover-up by these same institutions so to avoid the evidence that mankind has lived on earth for millions of years, instead of just thousands.  The reason is that colleges have received large infusions of federal grant money to study “things” and when contrary evidence arises to their conclusions, that evidence is suppressed in order to preserve the legacy of the previous conclusions.  That is why cover-ups occur in a mixed economy where government controls the education process, the economy, and the people in it with a blob like mentality of collective welfare.  The belief is that if the evidence is suppressed and nobody sees the results, that reality can be suppressed in favor of the desired out-come—at least the desire of the second-handers.  For instance, the typical levy addict tries to pass a school levy over and over again ignoring all the previous failures—such as at the Little Miami school district which tried 9 times to convince voters to approve a tax on themselves.  After the 9th time, voters got tired and stopped voting and the increase won by a very small margin.  The public school then felt that the “majority had spoken.”  The evidence that the majority had spoken against the tax eight previous times was lost to the desire of the second-handers to obtain higher taxes—so the evidence was ignored—even covered up by the media.  That is just a small sample of how major cover-ups occur—and why.  And in our modern age there is no greater cover-up than the one against The Hutchinson Effect.

The Huchinson Effect is a science of behavior that was discovered through experiments continuing the work of Tesla who was directly up against Edison and financier J.P. Morgan during the age of electrical discovery.  Morgan outspent Tesla and Westinghouse, and in the end, Edison’s inferior electrical discoveries were endorsed by the U.S. Government because of Morgan’s vast influence over them at the time—as they were second-handers at the back of the train of thought and had made their investments of infrastructure into Edison.  So they suppressed Tesla to preserve their investments as a government into a new science.  This was uncovered yet again when John Hutchinson ran across Tesla’s old experiments duplicating their effects which yielded decisive evidence of anti-gravity technology.  What follows comes directly off John Hutchinson’s web-site which is linked at the conclusion of this brief explanation.  The cover-up of The Hutchinson Effect is so vast that even edits to Wikipedia are removed and authors apparently banned.  The discovery by John Hutchinson continuing Tesla’s work has major ramifications on the modern world which would totally change the way human beings do just about everything—and the investments into the current way of doing things, the way second-handers make their livings at the back of the train would be in jeopardy.  Millions of unionized federal and electrical workers would have to change the way they do everything in their lives—and they don’t want that—so a cover-up of epic proportions has ensued.  What the cover-up by many institutions has attempted to do is prevent the world from learning about The Hutchinson Effect—but it’s too late.  Too many people already know about it, and I intend to make sure many more people learn of it.  The Hutchinson Effect has many solutions which beg for a pure capitalism form of government to help usher it into our daily lives—as opposed to the statist top down management of the typical bureaucrat and their legions of second-handers intent to protect their livelihoods from the imposition of epic scientific change.   Now, here is The Hutchinson Effect for your reading pleasure.

The Hutchison Effect — An Explanation

by Mark A. Solis

People often ask, “What exactly is the Hutchison Effect?” This brief essay is an attempt to answer that question to the satisfaction of the majority.

First of all, the Hutchison Effect is a collection of phenomena which were discovered accidentally by John Hutchison during attempts to study the longitudinal waves of Tesla back in 1979.  In other words, the Hutchison Effect is not simply a singular effect.  It is many.

The Hutchison Effect occurs as the result of radio wave interferences in a zone of spatial volume encompassed by high voltage sources, usually a Van de Graff generator, and two or more Tesla coils.

The effects produced include levitation of heavy objects, fusion of dissimilar materials such as metal and wood (exactly as portrayed in the movie, “The Philadelphia Experiment”), the anomalous heating of metals without burning adjacent material, spontaneous fracturing of metals (which separate by sliding in a sideways fashion), and both temporary and permanent changes in the crystalline structure and physical properties of metals.

The levitation of heavy objects by the Hutchison Effect is not—repeat not—the result of simple electrostatic or electromagnetic levitation.  Claims that these forces alone can explain the phenomenon are patently ridiculous, and easily disproved by merely trying to use such methods to duplicate what the Hutchison Effect has achieved, which has been well documented both on film and videotape, and has been witnessed many times by numerous credentialed scientists and engineers. Challengers should note that their apparatus must be limited to the use of 75 Watts of power from a 120 Volt AC outlet, as that is all that is used by Hutchison’s apparatus to levitate a 60-pound cannon ball.

The fusion of dissimilar materials, which is exceedingly remarkable, indicates clearly that the Hutchison Effect has a powerful influence on Van der Waals forces.  In a striking and baffling contradiction, dissimilar substances can simply “come together,” yet the individual substances do not dissociate.  A block of wood can simply “sink into” a metal bar, yet neither the metal bar nor the block of wood come apart.  Also, there is no evidence of displacement, such as would occur if, for example, one were to sink a stone into a bowl of water.

The anomalous heating of metal without any evidence of burning or scorching of the adjacent materials (usually wood) is a clear indication that possibly the nature of heat may not be completely understood.  This has far-reaching implications for thermodynamics, which hinges entirely on the presumption of such knowledge.  It should be noted that the entirety of thermodynamics is represented by the infrared portion of the electromagnetic spectrum, which is insignificant in a context of 0 Hz to infinite Hz.  The anomalous heating exhibited by the Hutchison Effect shows plainly that we have much to learn, especially where thermodynamics and electromagnetism meet.

The spontaneous fracturing of metals, as occurs with the Hutchison Effect, is unique for two reasons: (1) there is no evidence of an “external force” causing the fracturing, and (2) the method by which the metal separates involves a sliding motion in a sideways direction, horizontally.  The metal simply comes apart.

Some temporary changes in the crystalline structure and physical properties of metals are somewhat reminiscent of the “spoon bending” of Uri Geller, except that there is no one near the metal samples when the changes take place.  One video shows a spoon flapping up and down like a limp rag in a stiff breeze. In the case of permanent changes, a metal bar will be hard at one end, like steel, and soft at the other end, like powdered lead.  Again, this is evidence of strong influence on Van der Waals forces.

The radio wave interferences involved in producing these effects are produced from as many as four and five different radio sources, all operating at low power.  However, the zone in which the interferences take place is stressed by hundreds of kilovolts.

It is surmised by some researchers that what Hutchison has done is tap into the Zero Point Energy.  This energy gets its name from the fact that it is evidenced by oscillations at zero degrees Kelvin, where supposedly all activity in an atom ceases.  The energy is associated with the spontaneous emission and annihilation of electrons and positrons coming from what is called “the quantum vacuum.”  The density of the energy contained in the quantum vacuum is estimated by some at ten to the thirteenth Joules per cubic centimeter, which is reportedly sufficient to boil off the Earth’s oceans in a matter of moments.

Given access to such energies, it is small wonder that the Hutchison Effect produces such bizarre phenomena.  At the present time, the phenomena are difficult to reproduce with any regularity.  The focus for the future, then, is first to increase the frequency of occurence of the effects, then to achieve some degree of precision in their control.

The work is continuing at this time.  Before long, we shall see what progress can be made.

Discoveries do not come out of large institutions under collective enterprise.  Most major discoveries of scientific origin including the Internet, the Atomic Bomb, missions into space, or even aviation were driven from the mind of solitary individuals.  Second-handers helped these bright minds get the information to the public—but such inventions were not created by institutions in partnership with government to bring about new technology.  The Wright Brothers when they invented flight in Dayton, Ohio did not do so at the University of Dayton, they did it from their bicycle shop under rather crude conditions.  The aviation industry in all its incantations really hasn’t changed beyond the basic concepts of weight, lift, yaw, and drag invented by The Wright Brothers in a dirty shop that had nothing to do with airplanes.

The difference between Tesla’s electrical experiments which were far superior to Edison’s was that J.P. Morgan was behind Edison, and sought to crush the competition to protect his investment into Edison, which still continues to this very day.  Second-handers hope to suppress The Hutchinson Effect long enough for John Hutchinson to die off and all these current generations of people who know of his work so that a college can loot the information 50 or 60 years from now once history has forgotten who brought the technology into reality.  Then the second-handers of science will attempt to pass the discoveries off on their own hoping nobody knows that it was Tesla, then John Hutchinson who perfected the science way back in 1979!

Under free-market capitalism, John Hutchinson would be a millionaire honored as one of the greatest minds in human history—on par with Leonardo de Vinci, Albert Einstein, or Isaac Newton.   Instead, he is the subject of ridicule and controversy as the governments of the world try to pick his brain from a distance as he lives in a common home through eccentric means of relative obscurity.  Every human being in the world could have floating cars.  Large weights that would typically need forklifts and overhead cranes would be eliminated as anti-gravity could just float large objects around during construction and transportation.  Unique materials that have totally different physical properties could be bound together to produce unusual composites unknown to any other generation of human being—and the information is right in front of us—it is the second-handers which seek to prevent it to protect their own legacy of lies and manipulation over a long period of time.  To the second-handler, the protection of their institutions is more important than floating vehicles or any other by-product of The Hutchinson Effect which would be a natural result of such a radical discovery.  The discovery has already been made—the technology is already there.  It just lacks acceptance by the second-handers who are trained by their institutions to not trust anything done in a barn, or by an individual, or produced under the banner of profit-making capitalism.  The secret of what they really fear is that they know that nothing institutions actually produce amount to anything if individuals like Hutchinson are not the wind that blows the sails of discovery, and that illusion is the reason for the cover-ups at every level of our “civilized” society.

If you doubt dear reader what I have just said consider what has just happened in our current time under the Obama administration.  While writing this article at 3 AM in the morning, I went to the restroom and turned on a light—the light came on after a brief pause as it’s one of those new “environmentally friendly” bulbs—and it takes a moment for them to heat up to full brightness. Just four short years ago at the same time in the morning doing the same thing, I would turn on the light, and it would come on to full brightness without any hesitation.  It is government policy built on voodoo science which is driving this ignorance called global warming, and “clean energy.”  Going down the road of government evolution by two hundred under years under such a mentality it is conceivable that the light bulb may even be un-invented in favor of candles—to preserve “Mother Earth.”  The light bulb is devolving in the year 2013—it is less than it was in 2009 as the evidence presented itself to me at 3 AM in the morning to the slow warm up of the bulb to light my way in the darkness.  Yet the hypocrisy of the government and the second-handers who run it is obvious when The Hutchinson Effect is understood.  What could be more “eco-friendly” than anti-gravity.  Think of how fast trains could move without friction, or automobiles, or freight—or anything!  Think of how elevators could function at a fraction of the physical energy it takes to moves an up and down a skyscraper, or a hotel—and those are all direct implications of The Hutchinson Effect.  Then look at what the government has done to the simple light bulb and the pattern is obvious.  The Huchinson Effect gives mankind more freedom, and the governments of the world want less—and that’s ultimately what it all comes down to.  The second-handers want to believe that it is they who run the world, that it is they who invent everything, that it is they who make all the important decisions.  But in actuality, all they really do is steal from people like John Huchinson, and Tesla, and the Wright Brothers to build their institutional legacies off the backs of geniuses who were ahead of the curve long before the second-handers even knew they were even moving toward one.

The Chimera of American Courts: Erne Tertelgte’s epic standoff

If anyone were to wonder what the Founding Fathers would think of America today, people might have had a glimpse when Ernie Tertelgte, age 52, represented himself in court against misdemeanor charges of obstructing a peace officer and resisting arrest relating to an Aug. 31 incident where he was cited for fishing without a license, according to KBZK. He argued that “universal law” allows him to hunt for food to feed himself.

Tertelgte then proceeded to continue talking and was asked again to remain silent as a dumb founded judge sat helplessly in her chair bewildered as to how to proceed.  The court room employees who process daily dozens of cases and over the course of a year, thousands—purely for the revenue that is brought to the courts through guilty pleas was uncertain how to proceed against Tertelgte’s statements which were as close to what might have been heard from 1776 to 1791 in America as anyone living today could hope to encounter.

“I cannot ma’am in honor of the Constitution of the United States,” he said. “I can’t allow a man who carries British recognition for the purposes of British ministerial law to continue to persecute me.”

“I cannot ma’am,” Tertelgte continued. “I have to honor the founder’s ma’am. I honor the memory of those who fought and died that we can be free of this type of thing.”

http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013/11/24/i-am-the-living-man-protected-by-natural-law-you-are-probably-going-to-want-to-watch-this-epic-court-testimony/

There were of course snickers from those who have become used to blind compliance at Tertelgte’s naiveté.  After all the Montana man was failing to recognize over 200 years of progressive legal manipulation, feel good policies, and the minds of many academic scholars who have added their own words to The United States Constitution over the years—the case law from many attorneys, the decisions of Supreme Courts, and the stump speeches and laws created by many Presidents.  Tertelgte simply wanted to be left alone to fish, but even the remote state of Montana had imposed itself into the basic food gathering activity demanding that those who wished to participate pay them a fee.  Most Americans have been broken like a beaten horse to do as they are told, to speak when they are told to speak, and to think what they are told to think—so Tertelgte’s words seem alien to them, spoken from a different time by a different people.

The argument that Tertelgte cited in court is essentially the same type of thing that the plot to my 2012 novel Tail of the Dragon was all about—a rural personality colliding with the statists of a court room and refusing to acknowledge their power over individuals.  That novel was based on my personal experiences in court which were so numerous that they nearly number the stars in the sky on a cold cloudless winter night.  Starting at about the age of 25, I stopped hiring lawyers and just did the job myself which really angered judges—because they expect their victims to pay the proper lawyer fees and to respect the game they are playing.  But when lives and fortunes are at stake, it is foolish to leave freedom to chance letting some snot-nosed lawyer who golf’s with the judge a few times a year to throw you to the wolves with politeness—or some invisible courtroom etiquette that is made up of legal tradition vacant of respect for individual rights. 

To the 30-year-old millennial who spent the night before the recent Thanksgiving thinking about their drunken college days in intoxicated bliss, but proudly displaying their teaching certificate from those days on a wall at their home, or a law degree over their office desk, the words of Ernie Tertelgte might as well have come from E.T. The Extraterrestrial.  Tertelgte is a dinosaur from another time and another place—a Constitutional purist that naively failed to give the modern minds of statism the time of day.  Those same millennial’s drinking heavily on the Thanksgiving’s Holiday watching YouTube clips of Tertelgte on their iPhones with upturned pinkies and giggling tirades lack a mind to even understand that it was Tertelgte who was right and they who were on the path to extinction.  As remote and distant as Ernie Tertelgte might seem to the modern human being, it is Tertelgte’s position which is sustainable, not the modern statist who accepts the fines of the court blindly without question and the authority of a judge to rule over their lives with an ignorance bred in Europe.

Tertelgte was right when he stated that the American court system was British ministerial law.  In the years after the formation of the Constitution—beyond 1791, the American people a little homesick from mother Europe bounced back into the mentality of their former rulers.  They did this by default—because freedom is hard, and requires people to be self-reliant.  Freedom requires gumption, and intelligence—aspects of modern life that are grossly missing.  Governments through their control of the school systems, the national park system, taxes, regulation, and virtually every facet of modern life have taught people not to think—to just turn up their pinkies around a beer glass and chug—then make fun of people like Ernie Tertelgte so to discourage others from following his example.

Europe and its policies of kingdoms, statism, princes, princesses, peasants and all the hierarchies of obedience was rejected in America for a brief time in human history, and The American Constitution captured that philosophy in a bottle to preserve for all time.  It didn’t take long for European loving lawyers, judges, and homesick settlers who knew of nothing else to snap back into the mentality of their homeland, and attempt to reshape the Constitution into a document that reminded them of home through case-law.  That is what the judge sitting helplessly upon her throne facing down Ernie Tertelgte in her court room—paid for by the subjects of her little kingdom–was measuring the bearded man in the tri-cornered hat against.  She wasn’t judging him by the American Constitution, but against 200 years of progressive erosion of that same document.  Tertelgte simply rejected that progressive erosion and insisted on the original interpretation of the American Constitution.

Of course Tertelgte was found guilty and fined $150, which he responded, “you are trying to create a fictitious, fraudulent action, I am the living man, protected by natural law.”  He then yelled, “Do not tell me to shut up! I am the living, natural man, and my voice will be heard!”   The only thing that Tertelgte said in all his utterances that was wrong was that the judge had already played her part in creating that fictitious and fraudulent action—and for many years had done the same to thousands of others.  Thousands of other judges just like her had done the same to millions, and millions of other people over the course of their lifetimes.  Out of all those people only Tertelgte and a handful of others have taken the time to challenge that fictitiousness with solid fact based on the actual Constitution.  The fiction is the judge and all the years of case-law generated through years of many people believing that through consensus belief trumps the original law of the American Constitution.   Then those illusionists insist that the participants of the legal system also take part in that chimera because the laws of democracy demand that majority will rules, and so long as the majority wishes to participate in a fiction, then that fiction becomes their reality.  Under that mentality people like Erne Tertelgte are the ones accused of not having his feet in reality, and are snickered at for not having a realistic understanding of modern law and its protocols.  But in actuality, the only one living by the Constitution is Tertelgte with a bold authenticity that deserves respect—even if it did cost him $150 bucks of stolen money from the court to justify their jobs for the entertainment of an epic American fiction called the court system.

School Superintendent of Stuebenville Charged With Cover-up: Three other employees also charged during rape investigation

If not for blogs like this one, Twitter, and YouTube the crimes at Steubenville would have been covered up like many of the other crimes do in public education.  From the very beginning I stated that a cover-up was highly likely.  All public schools share the trend of sacrificing individuals to the collective whole, and when it comes to high school football, individuals are routinely sacrificed as athletes are often the symbolic stars of their community.  The tendency when school athletes commit crimes is to cover up the evidence so the entire community can continue to idolize the heroes of the football field and rally behind the schools they represent in battle.  Behind those athletes is a progressive education system that employees a lot of people off tax payer money, and schools need those tax payers to avoid looking too closely at real school activities—where scandals are common—not rare.  So I declared the scope of the crime in previous articles that turned out to be very prophetic.  CLICK THE LINK BELOW FOR REVIEW.

https://overmanwarrior.wordpress.com/2013/01/09/the-steubenville-rape-guilt-evil-sorrow-and-institutional-failure-in-education/

Before social media, a slick public relations employee would have swept this rape case under the rug, like they do many thousands of cases all across the country.  In Steubenville, Ohio it was only social media that exposed the crime in such a way that the media actually covered the story—which they usually don’t.  Because of the video evidence, which is rare, news outlets had to cover the information once it was brought to people’s eyes—and the case exploded into a national spectacle.  Many people didn’t want to believe that the events occurred, and many news outlets attempted to put on a happy face, while many in the Steubenville community who wanted to continue worshiping their football stars attacked the rape victim and her parents for saying anything about the issue—or “tempting” the boys in the first place. All of the ugliness of high school sports, public education, and the real relationship they all have with the communities which fund them was exposed in a raw fashion that many people didn’t know what to do with.

So it came to my eyes early on Monday the following AP news wire story confirming all that I had said previously, and a great relief swept over me.  The sadness for the poor girl was something I already dealt with—but this most recent news was the granting of a Thanksgiving Day wish provided early—justice for the victim and exposure of what public education is truly about—collectivism, sacrifice, and cover-ups.

STEUBENVILLE, Ohio (AP) – A school superintendent and three more people have been charged by a grand jury that investigated whether other laws were broken in the rape of a 16-year-old West Virginia girl last year in eastern Ohio.

Ohio Attorney General Mike DeWine announced the charges Monday in Steubenville

http://www.wpsdlocal6.com/home/ticker/School-superintendent-among-4-charged-in-Stubenville-rape-case-233321851.html

William Rhinaman, 53, director of technology at Steubenville High School, faces four counts: tampering with evidence, obstructing justice, obstructing official business and perjury in connection with the case, DeWine said. Rhinaman was arrested Monday.

If convicted, he could face four years behind bars, more time than the two convicted boys will serve.

Details of the indictment, including what kind of evidence was allegedly tampered with, were not immediately available.

“This is the first indictment in an ongoing grand jury investigation,” DeWine said in a prepared statement. “Our goal remains to uncover the truth, and our investigation continues.”

http://www.cnn.com/2013/10/08/justice/ohio-steubenville-rape-arrest/

Most of the time, including what I have said about my home school district of Lakota, everything comes true—sometimes it takes months, sometimes years, but eventually, when I open my mouth about something—it comes true in nearly the exact fashion that I frame it.  It’s not because I’m a prophet of some kind receiving mystical guidance from beyond the grave—but because of Robert Pirsig’s train explanation regarding the metaphysics of quality.  When you live on the edge of the train, you see things before those in the caboose do.  Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom is all about that cutting edge.  So the Steubenville grand jury charges are the only real payment I get for the work that goes into this “New Media” form of reporting.  It is why I do this kind of thing—because if somebody doesn’t—these cases get swept under the rug by traditional media 100% of the time.  They always have, and will continue unless “New Media” reporters expose them.

In the case of Steubenville it was Deric Lostutter who exposed the rape from the school cover-up, and if he hadn’t posted the images sent to him by members of a group of computer hackers working in the collective hive of “Anonymous” there would have been no justice in the case at all.  The school officials would have covered up another crime, and life would have returned to normal for the members of the Steubenville community.  That is why the FBI raided Lostutter to begin harassing him once he was discovered as the man behind the exposure—which I have also explained in previous articles.  CLICK BELOW TO REVIEW.

https://overmanwarrior.wordpress.com/2013/06/14/why-good-men-wear-a-mask-the-case-of-deric-lostutter/

However, Lostutter is far from a hero in the “Anonymous” circles because he has gained individual fame for his stance in protecting the rights of the Steubenville victim.  Since his fame from the case, “Anonymous” has distanced themselves from him in the usual fashion.  “Anonymous” members tend to think the way their public educations taught them to, as anarchists, socialists, Marxists and other radical types all centering around collective identity—which is why they call themselves the “hive.”  They see themselves as a hive of bees I suppose serving some higher purpose.  They certainly aren’t capitalists, and once Lostutter showed a knack for dealing with the media and achieved some fame, he had distinguished himself as an individual which is a big no, no with “Anonymous.”  Here is a sampling of their thinking complete with grammatical issues:

Deric Lostuttter began once again seeking media attention by doing media interviews on behalf of Anonymous, and the organizers of #opmaryville. An operation to bring justice to a teenage victim and her family after a sexual assault occurred by football players in a tiny Ohio town

The victim and her family brought charges against Players on the high school football team, but those charges were promptly dismissed by local prosecuting attorneys(citing lack of evidence and the victims refusal to cooperate), and the victim’s home was burnt to the ground prompting the family to get out of town. Maryville’s Local sherrif quoted as saying that “they did all that they could, but charges were dropped due to lack of evidence and the victim and her family just need to get over it and move on.” The victim and her family accuse the sherriff and prosecutors of lying, and deny not cooperating.

As Anonymous geared up to rally behind the victim and her family, Maryville’s official sites were taken offline to protect the town servers, and the local sherriff began to mock the Anonymous Hive.

Lostutter, who as of Monday began tweeting and posting about the case on his facebook was told early on by members of anonymous that he would not be a part of this operation, as he’s a “famefagging attention seeker” and for the op to go right, his fake anonymous ass should stay the fuck out of things.” Lostutter then began once again comparing himself to Barret Brown, Jeremey Hammond, and Edward Snowden continued to post about Maryville even issuing a false press release about #opmaryville from his twitter. Lostutter now dubbed, The Leader of Anonymous in one article in which he admitted he knew nothing about #opmaryville. Which makes no sense because usually when you’re interviewed it’s because you have direct knowledge of what’s goin on. The Daily Dot quickly retracted the title of Anon Leader, but not until after a internet backlash which pissed off thousands.  This however didn’t stop Lostutter from continuing to seek out media interviews as the “Spokesman for Anonymous” in which he continued to speak for and about #opmaryville without being involved or having any knowledge of the real Anons organizing the operation.

http://mobilebroadcastnews.com/NewsRoom/Don-Carpenter/Anonymous-Deric-Lostutter-Stay-Hell-out-opmaryville

So there is a lot going on regarding the Steubenville case, but the bottom line is that it took the courage of individuals to expose the various levels of collectivism which attempted to cover up the crime.  Even with the New Media outlets that put the story on the front page of newspapers and brought national coverage to the issue collectivism is still the impediment to justice, but because of people like Lostutter, the ability to sacrifice single victims to the plight of a collective whole has been greatly minimized.

I am happy to see justice done, and I will enjoy my Thanksgiving that much more knowing corrupt school officials are going to jail over the incident. There are a lot more names to add to the list of indictments from thousands of schools all over the country doing essentially the same thing, but Steubenville is a good place to start—and the four officials citied are simply the first—they won’t be the last.  Because of “New Media,” traditional media must compete, and that spells doom for school districts and communities everywhere who are accustomed to cover-ups like the one in Steubenville.  And that is something to truly be “thankful” for.

Hoffman Vs. Dixon: David “Kern” and a Goliath “Commissioner”

There is a good reason that I stand with Roger Reynolds and David Kern over the recent controversy surrounding Butler County Commissioner, Don Dixon.  Before I tell this story remember that I’d rather deal with Republicans who are fighting each other over what’s right than a bunch of collectivist Democrats.  But then again, Don Dixon was a Democrat all through the 80’s and 90’s and only decided to become a Republican in the year 2000, when it was obvious that conservative politics ruled Butler County.  When politicians use their public office in an abusive way—to obtain benefits for their friends, family, and political allies, right is right—and its not always easy to tell who is telling the truth, or even what “right” is.  In the recent case of Don Dixon, he obviously gave his son Brent benefits from his political holdings over the years—to the direct benefit of his family.  Don’s angry because Kern and Reynolds called him out on it—finally.  Here is the story from the newspaper.

Two board of election employees – including the son of a county commissioner – resigned in the wake of allegations that they were receiving full-time benefits for working part-time jobs.

The county made about $200,000 contributions toward their medical and dental insurance and also paid toward their pensions.

Republican Brent Dixon, 44, and Democrat Garry Hicks, 61, resigned this month after Butler County Prosecutor Michael Gmoser became involved and issued a “cease and desist” letter to the board of elections.

Brent Dixon was hired 22 years ago during the tenure of retired elections director Betty McGary, who has had a long-time relationship with Don Dixon. McGary quit in 2011 after 33 years.

“That’s the most lowdown sleazy, nasty comment I’ve ever heard. If you want to talk about me and you want to talk about my political history that’s one thing. Stay out of my life, out of my personal life. Roger Reynolds doesn’t have a millionth of the integrity she’s got,” he said. “I don’t pick on his wife.”

He threatened to sue Reynolds and Kern.

Don Dixon, who has led a crackdown on county spending since the economic downturn, was outraged that Reynolds had dragged McGary into the flap. He referred to McGary as his wife. He said the allegations were politically motivated.

Don Dixon said county commissioners have no control over the board of elections even though county commissioners approve the board’s annual budget.

Reynolds said Butler County contributed more than $156,000 towards Brent Dixon’s medical insurance over the years. Hicks was hired in 2001 and the county contributed about $35,000 toward his medical insurance premiums. Hicks recently was only taking the county’s dental insurance. Reynolds did not have figures for how much the county contributed toward their pensions.

With changes in the state pension effective Jan. 1, 2014, the 14 percent raises put Dixon’s and Hicks’ monthly wages over the $600 benchmark that enabled them to continue to earn a full month of credit for pension benefits. Before the changes, employees had to earn a minimum monthly salary of $250 to receive one full month of pension credit.

“There’s a lot of questions related to how Betty McGary would go along with this and authorized this as a director when it directly impacted Don Dixon’s son,” Reynolds said.

Don Dixon can cry foul all he wants, but the bottom line is that his son was given help by government through his father which is an abuse of power.  It doesn’t mean that Dixon is a bad person, but has simply done what many politicians fall victim to, they abuse their power for personal benefit which ultimately cost tax payers a lot of money.  When there are many tens of thousands of people like Don Dixon doing for his son Brent what he did, the cost to tax payers is catastrophically high.

I have some experience with the Dixons that is a bit of a precursor to this kind of behavior which I have never forgotten.  Way back in 1979, I was in a Soup Box Derby race with Brent in the finales of the Hamilton Jaycees sponsored event held behind Fort Hamilton Hospital.  Back then, the race was a big deal in the Hamilton/Fairfield area and my car The Beast, seen in the picture above dominated the event.  CLICK HERE FOR A REVIEW OF HOW “THE BEAST” CAME TO BE.  Brent and I raced in what was one of the closest races ever done in that event.  We raced three times in the finals which was a climatic centerpiece that had a good part of Hamilton on the edge of their seats.  I won the first race convincingly.  During the second race it was so close that nobody could agree whether or not Brent won or I did.  So we raced a third time.  Many believe that the results were much closer the third time than the second—but by rule, they couldn’t declare a tie, so somebody had to make a decision.  After 15 minutes of grueling review, Brent was declared the winner to the roar of a cheering crowd.  The Dixons were well-known around Hamilton and very politically powerful—so people knew their name.  I was an unknown living on a country road in obscurity.Derby 79

I wasn’t unhappy with the results.  I was proud of my efforts.  Brent had a slick car that many people believe was built by his father’s people.  Brent had a car that was built to win.  My car was one that my dad and I built-in our basement and back yard over many months.  A lot of sweat and love went into my car and it showed.  Brent’s looked professional, mine looked like it was made by an 11-year-old—which it was.  But even so, I had won 9 out of 11 races including the final—which wasn’t bad.  But my dad swore that I had won both photo finishes as he had placed himself on the sight line.  He was outraged.

Naturally, I thought that my dad was just cheering for his son the way all proud parents do who believes that their children are the best at everything.  Brent’s dad Don was near my father with his entourage of ass-kissers and of course Don believed that his son had won.  The two dads were looking at the situation from opposing positions.  I didn’t care.  I was happy to have done well, but my dad was furious on the way home.  The entire time we loaded my car onto the trailer and drove home he talked about Butler County politics and declared that the race was so close that politically the officials gave the win to Brent because of who his dad was.  I wasn’t so sure, but what he was saying made sense.

The BeastAfterwards, the media seemed more interested in my story than Brent’s including the Journal News story seen above—because I was the underdog and as the reporter declared, people like the underdog.  People liked my car, they like the David and Goliath story, they liked reading about Hoffman versus Dixon—where obviously Dixon was Goliath.  As the reporter concluded his interview with me and took his pictures at a spot that is now a sports bar where my home used to be located, he winked at me and said…………”you won kid.  I was there………I saw it with my own eyes.  But politics is more powerful than heart.  You have a lot of heart, just not enough politics.”

I watched that reporter leave and thought hard about what he said, and it likely sent me on a journey that has been over 30 years in the making.  I value my heart and the products of my mind over the connections that I could make kissing ass through politics.  I have avoided politics my entire life, likely because of my experiences against Brent Dixon at the Hamilton Soap Box Derby in 1979.  I’ve watched Brent grow up in the shadows of his father his entire life and I would never trade positions with him.  Brent has to look in the mirror every day and know that much of what he has obtained in life he gained through his father—whether it was the decision of a photo finish victory against me, or a cute little job with the Board of Elections and all the perks that came with it.  If I live a hundred more years I would never wish to trade places with Brent Dixon.

When I was 11 years old and my soap box derby car was parked next to Brent’s slick black and gray professionally constructed Dixon winning machine I wouldn’t have traded him my car for his—even though they were both equally as fast.  The reason is that I built mine with my dad with a lot of hard work and that made my victories that day much more cherished.  Brent won in the end, but like many things in his life, he won with the help of politics, which cheapens such victories to the point where they’re worthless.

Now many years later, on the fallout of a Lakota levy election loss where the politically connected won over the rag-tag efforts of those standing against tax increases, I wouldn’t trade places with those people for the same reason that I wouldn’t trade with Brent.  Dixon the son won at many things in life because politics helped him get over the top.  I have watched this happen to many people, and I have fought against it as I always will.  It didn’t surprise me at all to see that Brent had eventually found himself in trouble over such a thing because it wasn’t the first time.  What did surprise me is that David and Roger stood up to a respected Republican Commissioner who has his roots going back decades into Butler County politics.  The fact that they did speak out against Dixon speaks volumes about a wave of politics that is about to hit Butler County in the years to come—a political system that the levy supporters will not like, and the power brokers like Dixon who have spent a life-time nurturing their name so that they could help their loved ones with looted money and resources gained through government offices.

I have been in many photo finishes, and many of them were lost the same way that my rendezvous with Brent Dixon ended—with politics defeating raw heart.  But………..in the end, even after all these years the results of two lives shaped by a Soup Box Derby race proved drastically different because one found their life shaped by who their dad was and the other shaped by the kind of man their dad allowed them to be.  That subtle difference leads to winning a war by letting the battles go to the politically connected and otherwise manipulative causing a result that always ends with self-destruction over a span of decades.  A war won is more valuable than battles shaped by political influence, not for what the spoils of victory can give to pad a bank account, but for what it brings out truly in a heart and soul.  Battles are won by people like the Dixons.  Wars are won by those with heart…………..and a mind that still feeds it.  In confronting Dixon, Reynolds and Kern showed a lot of heart, and I admire them for it.  David Kern specifically has spent a life-like the biblical David, overlooked and quietly residing in the background for the most part.  Commissioner Dixon represents all the high-profile prestige of the Biblical Goliath, who expects to use his power and prestige collected over many years to crush his enemies.  What happened over the board of elections scandal is that an actual David named Kern cast a single stone against Goliath, and the results were predictably epic.  Because the David of Butler County—Kern and Roger Reynolds are out to win a war—as they have for years endured the battles won by Don Dixon.  And if Goliath was not guilty to begin with, the single stone would have had no effect.

In the end, heart crushes politics.  Sometimes it just takes decades to achieve victory. Most of the time, it takes more than a photo finish, but enough time provided for Goliath to overlook a single stone that could bring him down, and the will to cast it when the rest of the world believes it to be unwise.  That is what I learned in my race with Brent Dixon in 1979 and the lives of two people who moved from there into radically different directions.

Meet Lakota Jim: Why school levy supporters are “stupid”

It is important to understand the kind of person who voted in favor of the school levy at Lakota, and many other places during the latest election.  Once the results were in at Lakota, I received a parade of arrogant emails by statist pro tax supporters, and one of them I found particularly fascinating.  Below I included a couple of days of comments that Jim from Lakota left me so to examine the mentality of the typical levy supporter.  I have displayed only Jim’s comments as they were given to me omitting my responses so not to confuse his dialogue and the psychosis behind it.   Jim below was so happy that he had gained the legal ability to steal my money.  He resorted to name calling and rhetorical statements which centered on the standard labor union positions of—greed, statism, and “majority” democratic rule.  It is not by accident that Jim said virtually everything that Superintendent Mantia said after the election because they are all functioning progressives—which is a direct allusion to classic communism.  The fascinating aspect of Jim at the end of his comments is that he actually calls himself “pretty conservative.”  He is the kind of person that is destroying our modern world, and he actually feels entitled to be as parasitic as the government will allow him.  He supports aspects of American life that would have been despised 60 to 70 years ago, yet he is now representative of a “majority,” and he is proud of it.

His first comments begin of course after the election results were confirmed.  He couldn’t wait to inform me he had gained through democracy the ability to steal my money, then when pressed on that statement, he resorted to the “greater good” mentality by framing me as “greedy.”  The conversation only became more revealing from there.  Read for yourself.

Guess some athlete making millions playing a game is more important than some “bitchy” teacher. Again, this thinking is selfish and about YOU., your enjoyment.Stick a fork is an expression. Not a threat, not sure how in the world you’ve never heard that before.

Jim obviously chose to ignore all the facts that were presented to him as a voter and favored instead the progressive ideology of public education, that they are the care takers of children, and that endless supplies of money should be thrown in that direction in order to support his beliefs.

Many facts contrary to what Jim cited as reasons to vote for a school levy were provided yet he ignored them all.  He chose ignorance so that he could believe what the so-called majority believed, which is an opinion shaped by years of labor union practices.  Those labor unions were brought to America under a communist plot—the evidence is indisputable.  Yet Jim believes that it is perfectly alright to steal my money because he along with others wish to take it.  I do not pay higher taxes to Lakota by choice. I didn’t move to the district knowing the tax rate—they have been changed by outsiders through elections migrating to the district from progressive parts of the country over many years.  Yet Jim feels entitled to insist that I move out of the community because he wants higher taxes, yet I was here first.  I have been a stable force at Lakota; it is people like Jim who have been the variable.  When I protested that theft, he then called me greedy—which is the standard progressive argument for everything.  Jim is not part of a progressive conspiracy—but he has been instructed to become part of one through his education, his associates, and his politics.

The case has been made clearly; the most dangerous predator against young people is the public school system where pedophile teachers have a smorgasbord of innocent young minds to feed off of, and all too often they do.  One of the most dangerous and destructive things a parent could do to a child is send them to a public school.  Yet the government school of Lakota sold itself as a safe haven for children—and that more money would only guarantee more safe learning for kids.

What many don’t question is that it is not the corrosive teachers who are most dangerous; it is the things that the poor little kids learn while in public school.  The bright minds of children with infinite possibilities before them moments before they attend their first day of kindergarten are destroyed bit by bit with each day that they attend public school.  Why, because of Pirsig’s Metaphysics of Quality.  CLICK HERE FOR REVIEW.  Children naturally want to be at the front of the “train.”  Public education teaches them to place their minds, and imaginations into the back and this ruins them for life.  What people like Jim, Joan Powell and Mantia think are good, are only good for their political beliefs.  What’s good for a human being is totally different.  Public schools destroy minds, they don’t enhance them.

Think of all the people you know dear reader—how many of them are really alive—I mean REALLY alive?  Yet they all started as bright-eyed young children.  What happened to them?  Public education…………the kind of public education that Jim supports.  It only leads a mind to the kind of thinking shown above, a mixed up contraption of conservative politics, communism, labor union thuggery, statism, followed by tabloid entertainment driven by small mindedness.  The people who succeeded most at public education are not happy adults.  Look around and name one successful, happy example.  Name one!  Name one greatly successful person who got that way because of public education.  Nobody can do it……….because they don’t exist.  Yet Jim swears by it and feels entitled to write me to rub my nose in his victory.

Levy supporters are horrible people.  They support a structure of learning that is destroying our world and they are proud of the path to hell they are paving.  They are even pompous about it.  Jim and his people are happy to have been given by government the ability to steal my money for a product I don’t support, which actually perpetuates violence and the destruction of children’s minds.  Normally I would be very angry with Jim for his arrogance, but the next day after the election I was watching my grandson learn to climb the steps of our house and was amazed to watch all the little neurons in his brain kicking on.  Everything is an adventure to a child, and I reflected how much I wish that human beings maintained their childlike curiosity well into their adulthoods.  That they don’t can only be blamed on public education which seeks to put weights on the wings of learning.  The moment a child enters those vile institutions, their learning ability becomes stifled.  It won’t happen to my grandson, he will have no choice but to reach for greatness and see adventure with every breath of his life.  But for people like Jim, he is the total of more than 20 years of mental destruction and I suddenly felt sorry for the poor fool.  My thoughts of painting the sides of buildings with blood went away when I thought of how sad and pathetic Jim sounded in his comments to me, and could see clearly the source of his thinking.  It would be terrible to be trapped inside the mind of a person like Jim—the typical school levy supporter who has lost the ability to think, process data, and learn.  It wasn’t that Jim didn’t read the information No Lakota Levy provided, he just couldn’t because his mind had been turned off by public education. The information against the levy was placed before their very eyes and they were not only unable to read it, but not willing.  Their minds were so sluggish that they simply allowed other people to think for them.  People like Jim just repeat like a parrot what modern politicians say, what the unions write down as bullet points, and whatever Hannah Montana from The Pulse happens to write in the newspaper.  They are non-thinking slugs inept by their own faulty minds and I feel bad for them the way I’d feel bad for the victims of a terrible car crash, or the trapped occupants of a burning building unable to see for themselves how to escape.  Jim is doomed to a terrible life because his mind is broken, and his thoughts fragmented concoctions.  Like chirping birds hungry for a new worm from their mother government Jim and his clan of levy supporters screamed for a new tax.  They didn’t care where the money came from—that it was stolen from someone else.  They only care that it goes into their mouths to fill their bellies.  They didn’t care because their mind as adult’s no longer think—and that in itself is a terrible tragedy.

My anger at public education can be traced back to this solitary trait, that I see it not enhancing the lives of children, but destroying them.  It saddens me to speak to an illiterate adult that has actually devolved from the average 4-year-old mentally.  Due to this observation it is impossible to endorse public education unless you are a brain-dead sloth—which it appears Jim is.  That is the only conclusion that could be made after reading Jim’s comments and studying critically the meaning behind his thoughts.  School levy supporters are not just bad people who are metaphorically stupid—they are literally stupid, victims of minds that have been destroyed by public education.  And they are too stupid to even know better the way an insect doesn’t understand that it’s caught in a spider’s web, or caught in the current of a swimming pool to be consumed within the filtration system forgotten forever to the world.  Minds like Jim’s are no different, they have degenerated year by year from age five to arrive an illiterate mess to adulthood with Frankenstein ideals, none of them self-motivated.  It is just tragic.  I do forget sometimes that not everyone is awake, that many people like Jim are happy being blissfully ignorant and led about by the stupid, corrupt, and tyrannical because their minds have long left them.  It is to the stupid that public schools like Lakota appeal to, and they know how they think, because they taught them.  School levy supporters like Jim are simply trapped by government into believing anything they are told, because they are witless to question their reality—and that is even more tragic than a new tax of stolen money from the unwilling.  At least people who are robbed of their money by people like Jim still have minds to become outraged and see it as an imposition.  It is the biggest difference between the levy supporter and the non levy supporter; one still thinks for themselves, the other allows institutions to do that thinking for them.  Instead of wanting to pummel people like Jim for their aggression against me and obvious attempt to rub in a victory from his type of voting slug, I can only watch Jim trapped in a system of his own ignorance as he lives his life consumed like a bug in a spider’s web by the mental acuity which placed him there in the first place.  For a fleeting second I feel sorry for him because it must be terrible to be so damn stupid.

“The Majority Has Spoken”: Lakota Schools brags about their tax increase

“The majority has spoken,” Lakota?  Are you fu**ing serous you low life scum bags?  Where was “the majority  spoken” quote on the last three elections?  You idiots have a very selective memory……..but rest assured, I will continue to remind people 5 years from now, 10 years from now and 20 years from now what a bunch of fools, crooks and manipulators you were in 2013.  I have never met such bad people as you who run Lakota in my entire life and I have known drug dealers, hit men, organized crime pawns, crooked cops, and corporate crocodiles.  You people are the worst because you openly lie yet seek to deceive while pretending that you are angelic.  I have already given my statements about the levy and how I feel about Lakota which has not abated after the election.  CLICK HERE FOR REVIEW.  And my opinions about public education are worse than ever.  Lakota refused to listen to the other three election results and simply took some time off from the levy attempts while they rebuilt their public image and tried again in an off-election year.  You didn’t listen to the “majority” of the voters from the previous elections and cut teacher salaries.  You simply went for another levy attempt again and again until people said “uncle” and caved in to you losers.  You people at Lakota are vile parasites.  You won an election through extreme—and I mean extreme coercion, and you call it “the majority has spoken!”   Well, to that I have a five-finger salute with four fingers missing, and only the middle one paying Lakota any attention.  You people are absolutely unreal and I will NEVER forget it.  I kept my temper in check until I saw this Pulse Journal article by Lakota official reporter Hannah Poturalski  the lap dog of Superintendent Mantia. Lakota levy-page-001

My 80-year-old good friend Graeme George sent the following letter to the Lakota School Board.  Unlike me, he still believes public education can be saved.  He has been hopeful and optimistic over the years as I have only become angrier and angrier with each new scandal.  Maybe when I’m 80 I’ll cool off enough to put up with these idiots the way Graeme has.  Graeme has used his years of maturity to quell me quite a bit, and I appreciate him.  He and my wife are probably the only two people in the world who can calm me down once I get pissed off.  So I’ll take a cue from him and let him speak out against the DISPICABLE comments by Mantia and the Lakota gang in the Pulse Journal article by Hannah.   Here is Graeme’s answer to the Lakota School Board, so that the people who wisely voted NO understand how things work behind the scenes and know what’s really been going on.

Lakota School Board,

 

You WON the levy vote Tuesday, the 5th, the only way you could.

At taxpayer expense, you put out, or had put out, THOUSANDS of “YES LAKOTA” signs.

But, you stole, or had stolen, or allowed to be stolen, HUNDREDS of “NO LAKOTA LEVY” signs.

Those NO signs were paid for by taxpayers who don’t want HIGHER taxes.

You WON by less than 1% of the vote.

Putting out THOUSANDS of YES signs, and stealing HUNDREDS of NO signs, was how you WON the LEVY VOTE.

It will cost taxpayers FOURTEEN MILLION DOLLARS in HIGHER TAXES, because you employed thieves to do your work.

The Today’s Pulse of Butler County, November 10 – 16 quoted you saying “the majority has spoken.”

No!

The majority was cheated by criminal activities of people who stole our “NO LAKOTA LEVY” signs.

I put out NO signs several times after they were stolen.  Many signs were destroyed and were replaced.

Some of us will appear in Butler County Court Wednesday, the 13th, when Joe Behm will be charged with theft.

He was photographed stealing our sign, and the license plate of his car was also photographed as he made his getaway.

Some of us will appear in Butler County Court Wednesday, the 20th, when Dillon, Devon, Levi, and Robert will be charged.  Who do you think they will say led them to steal our signs?

Taxpayers won’t forget the methods used to get an LSD levy passed, and the amount taxes were raised as the result.

We must assume you will use these tactics every time you want to gain more money for the District.

What are our kids learning by these tactics?  What are they learning by DOING these tactics?

With the money spent on the “Communications with the Public Program” about what the public wants in their Lakota School District, what did you learn?

Apparently not enough to SELL the levy.  You had to resort to the methods described above to accomplish your goals.

Graeme George

During the recount, attorneys should check the ballot seriously. I would not put it passed Lakota to stuff the box, and every vote should be disputed.  If Lakota really wants to see the “Majority” then we should vote again, and see how many people show up to protect themselves from higher taxes!  But Lakota hasn’t got the guts……….because they know how they won…………..and it wasn’t straight.

Mark Welch Wins In West Chester: A bright spot in the November 2013 elections

Elections for me are often not happy moments.  My opinions are in the silent majority, and that silent majority doesn’t always stand up for themselves and vote.  After the Issue 2 defeat a few years ago, it was sad to see the labor unions get their way once again.  After Obama was elected last year to a second term, it was sad to see that bad guys win—and Obama is a BAD guy.  He’s bad not because of the color of his skin, or the fact that he’s a communist by definition, but because of the conduct of his life and the imposition he creates against individual lives.  Then there is this last election with Lakota.  It’s close, too close, and will go to a recount, but for me just having a close vote is not enough.  No Voters took if for granted that everyone else would vote on their behalf—and that is a major let down.  Most of the time I am terribly disappointed after elections because it shows how little thought human beings care to put into the operation of their lives.  They are quick to let other people—often corrupt—rule them through law, and taxes, and it disgusts me.

But every now and then something good does happen, and in this 2013 election Mark Welch knocked out Cathy Stoker as West Chester Township Trustee.  Mark was my guy.  I liked Matt too—quite a bit, but my money was on Mark.  I suppose it’s no longer a secret that I think a lot of George Lang—in fact, I’ll go so far to say that he’s a friend of mine.  And it delights me greatly to see that George now has a pro-business trustee working with him as a West Chester Trustee.  With those two now having two votes to one against Wong—who I think is a socialist—literally—the gridlock against West Chester business imposed largely by the democratic leanings of Stoker is over.  Thank God!

I don’t live in West Chester, I live in Liberty Twp, and cared much less about that race than the one in West Chester primarily because the politics in Liberty is still too entrenched in traditional Republican politics—which I like more than a damn Democrat, but even they are too far to the political left for me.  Christine Matacic lives in the house my grandmother grew up in when England gave my ancestors a land grant to settle the “wild west” ahead of the French who were fighting for Indian loyalty during the French and Indian War.  At least Matacic is a pro business politician even though I don’t like all the deals and government intrusion she tends to support through zoning tyranny.  There’s too much Agenda 21 in Liberty Twp and the trustees there have drunk the Kool-Aid, so I turned my attention toward West Chester.  It has been my plan for a number of years to help Lang gain a majority so that he can force Liberty to stay on the up and up with straight-up competition.  I know where Lang stands on things, and the best way to keep Liberty Township honest is to force them to compete with West Chester.  The politics in Liberty are too controlled by the Republican Party, so stalemates are the norm when it comes to reform.  But the language everyone speaks is money, and who will get what from whom.  For that, business should drive development, not government through zoning regulations.

Now that West Chester has the ability to drop the stupid bike paths and sidewalks and other Agenda 21 United Nations issues, businesses will want to deal with Lang and Welch forcing Matacic and the gang in Liberty to match their efforts, or lose out on opportunities.  So with the election of Welch I see that Liberty will benefit more than if the trustees had changed seats in my home district.  And that makes me happy.

Liberty Township is different from West Chester—it is still a community about vast open land and green space—aside from the latte sipping prostitutes who support school levies moving in with new money from transfer jobs originally stationed in New England.  Those types of people do not represent what Liberty Township is—which as I stated, I have a long vested interest in protecting.  But Liberty does have the Carriage Hill deal which is being built by the guys I used to play with as kids running motorcycles and shooting guns in their back yard off Princeton Rd.  I don’t like the loss of green space and potential ugliness of apartment buildings coming with their Carriage Hill project, but I am rooting for them to have success by bringing in high quality Indian Hill style homes to Liberty Township.  I’ve made parallels between Liberty Township and Indian Hill for years, and the Carriage Hill development moves everything in that direction.  I am also excited about the Liberty Center project.  That will be magnificent, and will give Liberty Township a unique opportunity to be something truly special, if it can manage to maintain its original character.  It will be a tough balancing act.

However, down in West Chester, there are huge opportunities for business development that will directly feed the viability of Liberty Center.  The Streets of West Chester has a potential under Welch and Lang to explode, especially with the announcement of Bass Pro Shops moving into a free-standing store near that location.  That is tremendously exciting.  My wife and I love to dine at Mitchells, and buy books at that particular Barnes and Noble, and more business in the area helps that book store stay viable, which is very important to me.  When I go out into town there is typically only one destination that I routinely visit, and that is book stores.

All this development is going to explode the amount of revenue Lakota schools will obtain in the next four years.  The dumb asses who run the district were so short-sighted that they only could see the money they wanted to throw at the teacher’s union in 2014 so they pushed their tax agenda through in spite of the wonderful opportunities that are coming, which takes money right out of the pockets of local residents to help support those businesses, and that is just flat-out stupid!  History can thank Joan Powell who wanted to pass one more levy before she left office, and Superintendent Mantia who was in the pocket of Cathy Stoker—the exiting West Chester Trustee.  They all think alike, which is why they couldn’t see the forest for the trees, and these are the idiots we trust to educate the next generation?  There will be HUGE surpluses at Lakota in 2015 which the union will see and will seek to grab every last penny, and there will be a levy request again in 2017 because nobody is managing the money—even though there will be a lot of it.

More than anything I was happy to see Cathy Stoker leave office because of the Enquire article she did against me in 2012.  I have held it against her since then and I always will.  Once I get a grudge against someone it lasts forever.  I expected Lee Wong to be voted out and Cathy to keep her seat but it worked out the opposite way which is better.  I hoped that both would be rejected, but Lang only needed one trustee to work with him.  The fact that it was Cathy made a bad night a bit better.  As angry as I am over Lakota and their stupid tax increase, Lang and Welch will show Lakota, Liberty Township and Cincinnati in general what happens when two very pro capitalist trustees control the purse strings of a community—and ultimately it will force those entities to move more toward capitalism and away from European socialism.  The people of West Chester will benefit immensely by the paring—and everyone forced to compete with them will also benefit indirectly—which will make the world a better place for a lot of people.  So one thing did work out on Election Night, Mark Welch gained a trustee seat.

Now, as my friend, George Lang is referred by many of his political enemies as being corrupt—a stooge for big business, consider the source before believing a word of it.  Those same political enemies call me a sexist because I have referred to levy supporters as prostitutes with asses the size of car tires.  The name calling comes from people who are by every definition of political theory communists—people who hate business and support wealth redistribution through higher taxation.  Whenever it is said that George Lang is corrupt examine the political beliefs of the accuser and you will find they support communism, socialism, progressivism, or overall statism.  Those same people have no idea how two pennies add up to make two cents.  They are functionally illiterate when it comes to economic theory, like the idiots who have run Lakota, and they should be discarded with the kind of garbage that is thrown away after a fast food meal—because their opinions are worth about as much.  I’ve known Lang for quite a while, and through some very perilous times, and he is far from corrupt.  He does love business, and money—which is something everyone who supports capitalism should support.  And now he has a buddy sitting with him as a trustee and good things will follow for everyone—except the socialists.

Lee Wong will enjoy finding himself out-voted and ganged up on the way he and Cathy did to George for a number of years.  It should give him more time to visit his favorite haunts in Hamilton, because due to the election of 2013, his relevancy is finally out-voted for the good of West Chester.  That alone made Election Night 2013 a wonderful evening.

Why I Want A Divorce From Lakota: The abusive spouse of government run education

It’s not like Lakota won by a large margin in the election of 2013.  With the narrow margin of just a few hundred votes out of 26,000 cast, the begging needy levy supporters of Lakota earned through government force the legal ability to steal more money from the pockets of property owners.  Leading up to the election Lakota had spent over $100,000 to create reports they used for their campaign, Delphi Technique community conversations by Jeffery Stec, and funneled money through PTA groups to fund a fourth levy attempt.  They captured the media having virtually everyone in town eating out of their hand.  CLICK HERE FOR AN EXAMPLE, AND BE SURE TO WATCH THE VIDEO.  Scott Sloan and Bill Cunningham from 700 WLW helped Lakota with a ridiculous argument about property values, which we will deal with in greater detail in the coming days.  Rick Jones, the Butler County Sheriff came out in favor of the levy, and all the television news outlets carried the story framed exactly as Lakota framed it, “the school hadn’t passed a levy since 2005.”  Reporters didn’t consider if the money was needed at Lakota, they didn’t explore the graphs shown by No Lakota Levy as to why; they simply formed their reports based on the press releases given by Lakota.

Cunningham and Jones are both either married or directly employed by government so their defense of Lakota’s government employees wasn’t unforeseen.  But Scott Sloan had shifted his view of support for No Lakota Levy from before in an obvious attempt to give his wife some business as a Realtor.  Sloan wouldn’t be the first guy to form his political beliefs around peace in the bedroom, based on the last interview I did with him back in 2012, its obvious something along those lines is going on, even though he would probably never admit it.  He called me a sexist several times after our interview and certainly turned on me when he knew damn well that what was going on was a hit piece by Lakota.  Sloan played along willingly.   I didn’t understand what happened between Scott and me until I spoke to Doc Thompson about the inner politics of Clear Channel, and learned things about Scott personally.  I left it alone and we pretty much parted ways after that—which is what Lakota was after anyway.  Part of the rush to place this latest levy attempt on the ballot was to have the election during an off-year election, where there were no congressional or presidential races.  The ballot was primarily all regional issues, which typically have a low voter turnout.  The media ignored the multiple sex scandals at Lakota over the last couple of weeks and the many other negatives which were covered only at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom.  Everything was slanted toward Lakota and they still only won the election by a few hundred votes.  It was hardly a landslide victory provoking a pompous celebration lap on their behalf.  Lakota’s victory was executed with deceit, manipulation, and elements of terrorism performed to use the mob of democracy to steal more money from the entire community.  Listen to Scott Sloan the day before the election:

When Sloan asked me nearly two years ago why I was churning up the “angry vote” I couldn’t answer it at the time because I couldn’t give away our strategy.  But now it doesn’t matter, the reason was to keep voters focused on the upcoming Lakota strategy to hold an election in an off-season attempt.  At the time it was a summer 2012 attempt, but the school wanted to make a deal to let everything cool off so they could rebuild their image, so we let them.

Letting Lakota off the ropes had more value than putting the community through another levy request, so I agreed.  I avoided telling stories about specific employees like the high school chemistry teacher who had a student texting his mother at home to help with his in-class assignment because the teacher was too busy playing Minecraft on the school computer.  I avoided those kinds of stories so not to further embarrass Lakota as part of our agreement.  Once they announced the levy, that deal was off.  In 2013 Lakota came out in their new campaign with a strategy of kindness and avoided the mud slinging because they knew their numbers would show up on Election Day with poor voter turn-out from the other side, and they didn’t want the enraged voters into showing up against them.  For the No Levy side, voter turn out was always the challenge, and the best way to get it was to get people motivated up off the couch and vote when the only issue in front of them was a school levy and a  few trustees.  Most people feel that elections do not represent them, so they don’t participate—much to everyone’s peril.

When I first started all this levy business I didn’t hate public education or the system of government schools.  I didn’t like it, I didn’t think it was effective, and I wanted to see competitive options, but I didn’t despise the people involved.  When I went to school board meetings, I sort of liked the people involved.  But the more I learned about the levy passage process, the angrier I became.  I’m not an angry person by nature.  I like to live well and leave others to live as they see fit.  I don’t impose myself on others, and I don’t expect them to impose upon me.  But the more I learned about public education the more I learned that the whole system was a terrible scam against innocent people, so it wasn’t hard to get angry.  What started as a bit of political theater in the beginning turned out for me to be very real resulting in the present day where the very word public education disgusts me.

After the election I couldn’t help but think of Lakota as a typical relationship that begins between a man and a woman–or a man and a man if you’re an Obama supporter—that starts with nice dinners and genuine joy and ends in a violent divorce where both parties hate each other and can’t wait to be legally separated.  Lakota like a typical jealous spouse demands that nobody else be in our children’s life—they have a government guaranteed monopoly of our attention as there isn’t any other choice.  Property owners must through government coercion support the public school planted in their community whether they want to or not.  They do not have a choice and behave in the same way as the spouse who questions their partners as to everywhere they’ve been and everyone they’ve spoken to.  When it becomes obvious that the relationship is corrosive to a healthy dialogue, the guilt driving spouse then tells their partner “we must stay together for our children” using their kids as a bargaining chip to maintain the monopoly status of an unhealthy marriage.  Lakota is in an unhealthy marriage with roughly 50% of the community, and they were only able to keep the unity together through manipulation, lies, and open extortion.  Like a spouse that knows their partner wants a divorce Lakota was kind during this campaign so to hopefully appease the tempers and keep the discussion of community divorce off the table.

Sheriff Jones, Bill Cunningham, Scott Sloan, Michael Clark, and dozens of other reporters covering the Lakota levy behaved like intrusive family members who were seeking to keep a family marriage together by ignoring the complaints of the abused spouse and taking the side of the school.  But the day after the election, all that really occurred was that Lakota managed to entangle more money out of those who want a divorce and kept the tax payers coming back home to maintain the illusion of harmony one more day.  Lakota only was able to maintain this illusion of a marriage by playing every trick of coercion known, taking away all options and hoping that enough people voted in favor of keeping a marriage together.  What they did was the same as tying up a spouse bound and gagged to a dinner table against their will then sitting across from them declaring how much they are loved.  The tied up spouse having no other option must sit there and listen, and they are obligated by law to continue paying Lakota more money, even though all they want is to be free of the coercion, the dysfunction, and the imposition of a government school.

I love every day of my life.  I care deeply about a number of people in my life—so many in fact that I often do not have time for everyone.  But I hate Lakota, and I want a divorce from them forever.  I can’t stand them.  I think they are an unhealthy entity that I want no relationship with, and I can’t stand that I am forced to pay them my hard earned money for causes I do not support.  I dread my interaction with them the way one might dread having to speak to a person they know they want to end a relationship with.  Once it’s over in their mind—it’s over, and for me, and Lakota……..it’s over.  I am not proud that I attended there as a kid.  I am not proud that my children attended there.  I don’t give a damn about their stupid sports scores, their band awards, or their buildings.  I hate virtually everything about them the way I’d hate an attractive spouse who looks good from a distance until they open their mouth, because now I have gotten to know them—and have determined that I want them out of my life.

The day after the election they are patting themselves on the back and breathing a sigh of relief because they have the No Voters chained up in their bedroom and the door and windows are locked up tight.  They own us through the chains of marriage arranged through politics as match makers of spouses who have no business being in the same room, let alone in a relationship.  The tears the levy supporters shed at BW3’s once the votes were counted are equivalent to the spouse in denial of the condition of their marriage knows that they have their marriage partner safely in chains once again, but yet they also fear what might happen if they forget to lock the door, or leave the chains too loose.

Immediately I could feel the shackles of Lakota reaching into my pocket to steal away roughly $40 dollars a month the way a pick pocket might rob an innocent on a lonely sidewalk.  Being in a forced marriage the looter Lakota can steal my money while I am chained to them, because government has placed us together.  The relationship is good for Lakota, because they need me.  The relationship is bad for me, because Lakota sucks as a spouse.  They don’t have my values, they don’t have my passion, and they don’t have my love of life.  Lakota can steal my money because labor unions in bed with politicians gave the school that right against my will.  But Lakota can’t make me love them no matter how many chains and games they wish to play.  The right to hate them is the one freedom I truly have, and I will feel that way till the marriage is ended and I am successfully divorced from them forever.

If I am forced into a relationship with Lakota, make note that I will be a royal pain in the ass.  When they give themselves raises next year, I will be there two and three years down the road to show on graphs what Lakota has done.  I will be there to point out every lie told even ten years from now, and I will name the names of the advocates, and I will make their life a royal hell.  I will not move from the community under any circumstances and I have a long memory, and I have a worse temper than any collection of levy advocates, and I will be there with each mistake, lie, and deception they make to chronicle my case for divorce, and eventual freedom from Lakota and the money they seek to steal from me and many others for their own cause.  Because the only real freedom we have in these arrangements is the right to hate the advocates, and to that extent, I reserve that right with glorious indignation, and the inner joy of a rebellion that only an abused spouse understands.  What Lakota won in the election of 2013 was not for children, or the community—but for their own façade of maintaining a forced marriage with those who despise them, and wanted freedom from the theft of money that can only be obtained in a legal union.  And they did it with only 214 votes–less than 1% of the vote.  For Lakota, they are breathing a sigh of relief because it gives them the illusion of a sustained marriage.  But they better beware of the unlocked doors, and loose chains, because the minute they let their guard down, they will find themselves single and very lonely.

Meet A Thief Stealing No Lakota Levy Signs: Doing the work of police for them

I know the Butler County Sheriff’s department is hard at work trying to figure out who put the shooting spree threat in the girl’s bathroom at Lakota East Freshman School, so I like to do their job for them whenever possible—you know—just to help out.  I really want to see an arrest in that shooting threat at Lakota so I wouldn’t want to take the police away from their “important” investigation.  I’m sure an arrest will be made any moment……………………………………………………(crickets)?  As Michael Clark noticed in his recent Enquirer article he stated that For Lakota had put out more campaign signs than No Lakota Levy.  Well the reason fewer signs have been seen from the popular tax fighting group is because so many of them have been stolen.  Often however, the thefts occur without any documentation and the police are often too busy sitting on the side of the road giving people tickets, or eating doughnuts and flirting with a cashier.  So they don’t always see the thefts when they happen.

Well, never fear, No Lakota Levy has caught one of the thieves with pictures, and can be seen below.  The man is holding in his hand a No Lakota Levy sign ripped off its frame by him and he is on the phone obviously happy with himself for the action.  He even did a favor and looked squarely at the camera so his facial features can be clearly seen.  Wasn’t that nice of him?Screenshot_2013-11-03-16-23-16-1

Screenshot_2013-11-03-16-21-22-1 (1)For the police, the license plate number of the guy is clearly displayed, so just run his plates and go over and arrest him for damage to property and interference of a campaign.   It won’t take more than a few moments, and then you can go back to your doughnuts, your Playboy magazines, and texting everyone on your phones while you pretend to be busy pursuing justice.  It shouldn’t interrupt the Lakota investigation of the teacher………….I mean student who left behind the shooting spree warning.  Justice waits for nobody, so now the Sheriff’s department can resume its man hunt for the would-be terrorist.  Just call up a deputy, give them the plate number of the man shown above, and take care of business on behalf of No Lakota Levy who has had their property and message destroyed with the endorsement of the government school of Lakota.  If Lakota doesn’t condemn the behavior seen in the picture clearly, they obviously support it.  They guy walked by a For Lakota sign, so he obviously is from that political faction.Screenshot_2013-11-03-16-21-56-1

Because of those pictures the proof of theft is provided, and nobody can say that they don’t know whose doing it.  The information has been provided and now all that is required is action on behalf of the authorities.Screenshot_2013-11-03-16-22-22-1

I can’t wait to see justice served to that levy supporter who is driving one of those stupid little hippie cars which proves that if you vote for a school levy………………YOU’RE STUPID!

As a side note, if the police need help with the shooting threat, just let me know.  I can help you with that one too.  If you’re looking for a little freshman girl, you’re probably looking in the wrong place.

Why Voting For The Lakota Levy Is Stupid: Darryl Parks talks about the 2013 school levy on 700 WLW

It was good to hear Darryl Parks maintain his position on school levies, and specifically, the Lakota school levy.  I have purposely avoided doing talk radio during this latest campaign primarily because the levy fighting going into the future needs to grow and more people must to be involved—and for some talk radio can be an intimidating forum to utilize.  Aside from that, there is already a large collection of talk radio interviews that have been done in the past, which are still relevant online.  More broadcasts talking about the same topics tend to become counterproductive, so they were avoided strategically.  Also involved was the issue that No Lakota Levy wished to maintain their message of fiscal responsibility within the Lakota district where I have evolved into questioning the basic premise of public education and believe that it should be abandoned all together in its current form.    Darryl’s position is closer to the No Lakota Levy view, where mine isn’t something that many people are ready to hear, because the answer requires difficult choices—and admissions.  Yet Darryl is well aware what is driving the Lakota levy and he talked about it on his Saturday, November 2nd show which can be heard below.  The Lakota levy is about wealth redistribution, it is a socialist concept created by progressives, and it’s unconstitutional.  It is all about taking from the rich and giving to the poor which is the ugly underbelly of all school levies—but one that gets avoided because of the implications pointing to communist roots.  Nobody wants to admit that their school where their children are attending is a socialist concept.  Nobody wants to face that the educations they received when they were young was a communist creation, but if they think hard enough, the admission becomes easier once they understand the meanings.  CLICK HERE TO REVIEW.  Darryl smartly stays off that topic, but discusses the result—the cost of the Lakota levy for people with $300K to $400K homes will be an additional $600.00 to $800.00 a year and that will likely mean no summer vacations, no big purchases of new furniture, televisions, or even air travel to an overseas destination.  If the Lakota levy were to pass, the people with the most money would have to make sacrifices that those without so much money would otherwise have to make.

Most of the supporters of the Lakota levy are either people who have ridden the coat-tails of those who do have money yet don’t understand the real value—so they are quick to give it away, or they are simply new parents who want what’s best for their children and they believe that public education complete with busing services is the best way to give it to them.  These types make up the vast majority of the levy supporters, and they believe that a “rich man” or a well to do household can afford an extra $800 dollars in taxes a year because they have a $400,000 house.  They believe that if a business can afford to carry payroll, or the owners have a net worth of over a million dollars that they are required to pay more in taxes so that the child of a family not so fortunate can have an education.  Well—anybody who thinks that way is wrong.  That belief is a communist sentiment brought to America through the labor union movement, and it is at the heart of every single school levy.

Just before the Lakota levy vote, superintendent Mantia sent out the following letter to business owners all across West Chester and Liberty Twp.  She likely broke the law sending it because it is campaign literature for levy passage created during her contract hours of work which is technically against Ohio Revised Code 3315.07, which states in part “no board of education shall use public funds to support or oppose the passage of a school levy or bond issue or to compensate any school district employee for time spent on any activity intended to influence the outcome of a school levy or bond issue.”  But whose going to prosecute her………..Sheriff Jones?  He has a deal with Mantia if the levy passes, so he’ll gladly look the other way and so will all the state prosecutors.  The letter from Mantia is a thinly disguised reminder that the business community must pay their “fair share” as determined by the needs of the many.  Mantia means to strong-arm the business community into supporting higher taxes so to avoid the public disgrace of refusing.  I know quite a few business owners in and around Lakota and not a single one of them believe the arguments Mantia presented on the document.  They know that less than 5% of the proposed levy revenue is going to the kind of things she addressed.  The rest of the money is going to Lakota employee raises.  Yet they have felt compelled in the past to just go along to get along.  If the school raised taxes, they’d just raise their prices of service.  This worked for decades until the present time when consumers have proven that they have had enough, and won’t purchase items at a higher price.  So businesses are no longer willing to pass off those higher costs as they are between a rock and a hard place.  If they chose not to support a levy they get called names like selfish, mean-spirited, and have the PTA organizations threaten boycotts against their businesses, such as what happened after the last election.  CLICK HERE FOR REVIEW.  If they pass the tax increase off onto their customers, they will lose business.LAKOTA-LETTER[1]

The levy advocates have a bottomless pit of need and they believe that because a homeowner owns a Mercedes, spends $800 on a meal for business clients, and has a home valued over $500K that they have an obligation toward higher taxes—and they are dead wrong.  Because the taxes never stop, one of those wealthy tax payers today might pay taxes at $600 to $800 more a year every four years for the life of their businesses and will find that they will either have to move to a district with less taxes, or let the value of their assets decrease so that there will be nothing left once their children inherit their lifetime of hard work.   Lakota business owners and residents have been relatively smart in voting down continued school levies—not passing one since 2005.  West Chester and Liberty Township are thriving economic communities where other places like Fairfield, Finneytown, and Evendale are struggling because they are yesterday’s has-beens.  They said yes to similar letters from school superintendents in the past and it cost them their livelihoods.

Butler County in general was built on a foundation of lower taxes.  Why does anybody believe that Bass Pro Shops is leaving Forest Park and moving to West Chester—or here is a better question—why is the economy at Forest Park so bad that the mall there is a virtual ghost town?  One, it is taxes, two it is too much government housing and a demographic population that lives off government money.  The people of Forest Park have less value for money because the government sends them a check in the mail.  Therefore, they do not enjoy the kind of things that Forest Fair Mall tried to offer them over the years as far as retail shopping.  So companies moved out or went out of business.  They went to West Chester where the taxes are less, and people appreciate nice things.  West Chester is still driven by capitalism where Forest Park is drowning in socialism—a string of unfortunate and unintended consequences.  I know this first hand, about twenty years ago I was a personal driver for a Bengal player.  It was my job to drive him around and make sure he got home safely while he jumped from bar to bar.  If people got too close, it was my job to make sure he was covered.  I’d drive this guy all over the city to every hot night spot in town.  Since I didn’t drink or do drugs, I was a good candidate for this kind of thing and wasn’t tempted to play along.  At the end of the day, around 4 AM I’d take him home to his wife.  They lived in a nice part of town full of promise.  They lived in Forest Park, and thought of it as a land of luxury.  Today, that same home is surrounded by Section 8 housing and a welfare demographic that has very few people officially employed.  That is why Forest Fair Mall has failed, and the former Bengal player is no longer married to that woman.  Bad investments lead to bad lifestyles.  Bad lifestyles lead to failed businesses.  Failed businesses lead to empty malls like the one at Forest Fair Mall.

Every resident in the Lakota school district has an obligation to defend their homes and property from the clutches of big government spenders like superintendent Mantia.  Failure to say no to them will result in the same kind of declining community as seen in present day Forest Park, Fairfield and many other places where high taxes and demographic changes have destroyed their communities.  In Lakota, it is the targets of Mantia’s letter that make the community such a nice place, the restaurant owners, the developers, and the financiers.  If they get frustrated with the tax rates and pick up to move, they will leave behind in Lakota a community with crushing tax rates yet no businesses to pay them, because nobody takes the risk of owning something without expected to earn money from it.  The value of any money earned goes down with every tax increase.  Communists, or those trained in the ways of communism have no value for money—they find themselves seeking government employment because that is the only place they can earn a decent living thinking the way they do.  Superintendent Mantia does not understand business.  She thinks because she gets a hand shake and a bit of idle chatter at a charity event from many of the people she sent that letter to, she is on good terms with them.  But she’s not.  What she gets is appeasement the way a person who gets pulled over by a cop tries to appease the cop so that they don’t end up in jail.  Business owners want to keep the peace and the looters out of their pockets.  Taxes like the one proposed for this November levy permanently change wealth, and gives business owners less money to invest in the community, and that is not a good thing.

The communists who devised this ridiculous plan knew what they were doing.  They hated the rich, and sought to level the playing field in every endeavor.  Most levy supporters when asked enough question will reflect the communist roots of their belief when they state that everyone could afford to pay just a bit more for the good of the children.  Many of them will only pay $30 dollars more a month, and since they have kids in the school, it’s no big deal to them.  It’s cheaper than driving their children to school if they are lucky enough to get busing back.  They may cut one trip out to eat with their family a month, and pay their higher tax without further complaint.  But for business owners with millions of dollars in assessed property value, they will be taxed much higher, and the levy supporters with much less personal value will directly benefit.  It’s called confiscation of wealth by the needy majority, and it is a communist concept—and a sickening enterprise.

The school levy at Lakota and every other school district is simply a redistribution of wealth scam that uses children to fulfill a political agenda that as Darryl Parks stated, is unconstitutional.  For the same reasons that superintendents like Lakota’s Mantia ignore Ohio Revised Code 3315.07, authorities under state control ignore the unconstitutional nature of the school levy system because they have allowed the monopoly of public education to dominate the political arena with a communist sentiment that belongs in Kazakhstan, not West Chester, Ohio.  There is nothing good that comes out of tax increases, but everything bad—an element missing from Mantia’s letter.  She likely has no idea what the people who she sent that letter to really think of her, and probably thinks they believe what she is saying as much as she does.  But the difference between her and them is that they actually produce things, while she is just another government parasite, a worker living off the tax payers and again advocating more taxes so her ilk can sustain their unsustainable wages for a few more years.  If there is no other reason to vote against a school levy anywhere in Ohio, it is because the concept is a flawed one that goes against everything America is supposed to stand for—capitalism.  School levies are wealth redistribution attempts by progressive minds for aims that are not beneficial to thriving economies.  And every one of them should be voted down because they won’t end in 2013.  They will continue well into the future until there is no money left to loot and people finally say no because they have nothing left to give.  For the sake of Lakota, and the community that feeds it, the NO VOTES need to come now, while there is still money being produced in an economy that is the envy of Ohio.  Voting NO on the Lakota levy goes a long way to keeping that status.
