‘The Naked Communist’ With Matt Clark: The root of the Green Bay Packers

IMAGE_713Over the weekend Matt Clark asked me to do a radio segment based my blog series dedicated to The Naked Communist.  CLICK HERE TO READ THE LATEST.  Of course I agreed even though I was traveling, specifically in the heart of labor union country–Wisconsin.  It was the perfect platform personally for me to do a radio interview as I had been thinking voraciously what the cost of communism brought to America through the labor union movement had been.  The evidence was very easy to see in the blue-collar towns of Wisconsin.  While traveling, a woman sat next to me and told me her life story even though it was quite clear to her that I was trying to read.  She complained about air travel and how cramped the seats were, even as her girth was spilling over into my side.  She complained that the airline companies just wanted to make “profits” by cramming as many people into the plane as they could—that it would make more sense to have more flights per day so people didn’t have to be so cramped.    She then proceeded to declare that automotive travel wasn’t any better.  Modern cars broke down too often and the car companies were greedy and only wanted “profits” and they were evil.  I asked her what companies were supposed to stand for if not for profit, and she said that they should stand behind the people who work for them.  I asked her where she was from, and she stated proudly with a bold Wisconsin accent…………..Madison—the birthplace of the labor movement and progressive party in America.  I said, ah-ha, I understand now.  She smiled a bit wondering what my reference indicated.  I then asked her how she felt about communism—and she went on a half hour tirade about how her father fought against it in Vietnam, and she hung an American flag from her porch every day and was happy to see the communists fail in Russia.  I listened with sadness as she had no idea that the roots of her thinking were fashioned from communism, and that she was a functioning collectivist shaped by progressive Wisconsin politics over the last century.  It was in this context that I gave a very animated interview from my hotel room to Matt Clark during his Saturday radio show on WAAM in Ann Arbor.  Watch and listen:

Wisconsin politics during the 20th Century was shaped by Robert Marion “Fighting Bob”[1] La Follette, Sr. (June 14, 1855 – June 18, 1925) He was an American Republican (and later a Progressive) politician. He served as a member of the U.S. House of Representatives, was the Governor of Wisconsin, and was also a U.S. Senator from Wisconsin (1906 to 1925). He ran for President of the United States as the nominee of his own Progressive Party in1924, carrying Wisconsin and 17% of the national popular vote.

His wife Belle Case La Follette and sons Robert M. La Follette, Jr. and Philip La Follette led his political faction in Wisconsin into the 1940s. La Follette has been called “arguably the most important and recognized leader of the opposition to the growing dominance of corporations over the Government”[2] and is one of the key figures pointed to in Wisconsin‘s long history of political liberalism.

He is best remembered as a proponent of progressivism and a vocal opponent of railroad trusts, bossism, World War I, and the League of Nations. In 1957, a Senate Committee selected La Follette as one of the five greatest U.S. Senators, along with Henry Clay, Daniel Webster, John C. Calhoun, and Robert Taft. A 1982 survey asking historians to rank the “ten greatest Senators in the nation’s history” based on “accomplishments in office” and “long-range impact on American history,” placed La Follette first, tied with Henry Clay.[3]Robert La Follette is one of five outstanding senators memorialized by portraits in the Senate reception room in US Capitol. One of America’s top schools for public affairs, located at the University of Wisconsin-Madison bears his name.

From 1901 until 1906, La Follette served as Governor of Wisconsin. During his first term, he proposed to set up a railroad commission, imposed an ad valorem tax on the railroad companies, and established a direct primary system. The Stalwarts blocked his agenda, and he refused to compromise with them.

During the 1904 elections, the Stalwarts organized to oppose La Follette’s nomination and moved to block any reform legislation. La Follette began working to unite insurgent Democrats to form a broad coalition. He did manage to secure the passage of the primary bill and some revision to the railroad tax structure.[2]

When the legislative session concluded, La Follette traveled throughout Wisconsin reading the “roll call”; that is, he read the votes of Stalwart Republicans to the people in an effort to elect Progressives. During this campaign, La Follette gained national attention when muckraking journalist Lincoln Steffens began to cover his campaign.

With the press coverage and his successful re-election, La Follette rose to become a national figure. His message against “vast corporate combinations”[2] attracted more journalists and more progressives.

As governor, La Follette championed numerous progressive reforms, including the first workers’ compensation system, railroad rate reform, direct legislation, municipal home rule, open government, the minimum wage, non-partisan elections, the open primary system, direct election of U.S. Senators, women’s suffrage, and progressive taxation. He created an atmosphere of close cooperation between the state government and the University of Wisconsin in the development of progressive policy, which became known as the Wisconsin Idea. The goals of his policy included the recall, referendum, direct primary, and initiative. All of these were aimed at giving citizens a more direct role in government. The Wisconsin Idea promoted the idea of grounding legislation on thorough research and expert involvement. To implement this program, La Follette began working with University of Wisconsin–Madison faculty. This made Wisconsin a “laboratory for democracy” and “the most important state for the development of progressive legislation”.[2] As governor, La Follette signed legislation that created the Wisconsin Legislative Reference Library (now Bureau) to ensure that a research agency would be available for the development of legislation.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_M._La_Follette,_Sr.

In 1911, La Follette set up a campaign to mobilize the progressive elements in the Republican Party behind his presidential bid. He made a disastrous speech in February 1912 before a gathering of leading magazine editors that caused many to doubt his stability.[12] Most of his supporters deserted him for Theodore Roosevelt[citation needed].

Embittered, La Follette opposed both Roosevelt and William Howard Taft in the 1912 election. When his former ally, Governor Francis E. McGovern, supported Roosevelt, La Follette broke with him, allowing the conservative Republicans under Emanuel Philipp to take control of Wisconsin in the decisive 1914 election. La Follette’s forces were out of power in the state from 1912 to 1920.[13]

In 1924, the Federated Farmer-Labor Party (FF-LP) sought to nominate La Follette as its candidate. The FF-LP sought to unite all progressive parties into a single national Labor Party.

However, after a bitter convention in 1923, the Communist-controlled Workers Party gained control of the national organization’s structure. Just prior to its 1924 convention in St. Paul, La Follette denounced the Communists and refused to be considered for the FF-LP endorsement. With La Follette’s snub, the FF-LP disintegrated, leaving only the Minnesota Farmer-Labor Party.

Instead, La Follette formed an independent Progressive Party and accepted its nomination in Cleveland with Democratic Senator Burton K. Wheeler of Montana as his running mate. The American Federation of Labor, the Socialist Party of America, the Conference for Progressive Political Action and most of the former supporters of the FF-LP along with various former “Bull Moose” Progressives and Midwestern Progressive movement activists then joined La Follette and supported the Progressive Party.  Many who today call themselves “progressives” sincerely trace their political roots to the Progressive Parties of Teddy Roosevelt, Henry Wallace or Robert La Follette, Sr.  But many others on the left nowadays call themselves “progressives” as a deceptive euphemism for more precise, less popular words that describe their real political objectives and ideology – words such as “socialist,” “Marxist,” or “Communist.”  Even through La Follette denounced the communists during the 1924 convention it was only politically that he separated from them, not ideologically.  He did however attract the softer version of communism to his party affiliation in the American socialists.

Wisconsin as I traveled around it emitted the classic hope of the early 20th Century progressives—vast spans of middle-class residences, labor unions, and a generally anti-corporation mentality.  Socialism was everywhere, even in the Green Bay Packer paraphernalia at the airport the only NFL team that is owned by “the people,” not a corporate owner. All money earned goes back into the club.

The Packers are deeply rooted in the Wisconsin city where they were founded in 1919. They were named after a local meat processing plant, the Indian Packing Company, which paid for the first uniforms. Starting in the 1920s, the Green Bay Football Corp. made a series of public stock offerings. In 1950, 1,900 local residents each put up $25 a share to buy the team.

From the Packers’ web site:

“Green Bay Packers, Inc., has been a publicly owned, non-profit corporation since Aug. 18, 1923, when original articles of incorporation were filed with Wisconsin’s secretary of state.

A total of 4,750,937 shares are owned by 112,120 stockholders — none of whom receives any dividend on the initial investment.

The corporation is governed by a board of directors and a seven-member executive committee.

One of the more remarkable business stories in American history, the team is kept viable by its shareholders — its unselfish fans. Even more incredible, the Packers have survived during the current era, permeated by free agency and the NFL salary cap. And, thanks in large part to Brown County’s passage of the 2000 Lambeau Field referendum, the club will remain solvent and highly competitive well into the future due to its redeveloped stadium.

Fans have come to the team’s financial rescue on several occasions, including four previous stock sales: 1923, 1935, 1950 and 1997.

To protect against someone taking control of the team, the articles of incorporation prohibit any person from owning more than 200,000 shares.”

Silently, many who profess to see communism work in America look at teams like the Green Bay Packers and the progressivism of Wisconsin as hope that socialism and communism will still work.  Not long after my radio interview with Matt, which became quite animated at times, I had the profound desire to return to Florida and bask in the capitalism of the Disney World complex.  Wisconsin and the people there were too bleak and small-minded for me.  They were friendly, but dramatically philosophically limited which was evident in gross abundance by the small town cafes and general business climate.  If not for their dependence on the federal government, their social experiments into communism through the mask of progressivism would have failed long ago.   Suddenly I am a massive Scott Walker fan as it gives me hope that Wisconsin residents are just now pushing away their history of communist acceptance through Robert La Follette, Sr’s progressive party.  As for the woman on the plane with me, she was the kind of person that Matt and I spoke about……..her foundation beliefs were rooted in communism, only she didn’t know it.  She believed falsely, just like the union brothers of Wisconsin, home of the Harley Davidson motorcycle and the dream quest of traveling to Sturgis every August on a freedom driven pilgrimage.  The labor unions and collective ownership the unions, and Harley riders generally subscribe to are experiments in communism advocated by 20th Century politics implemented before the Cold War with the Soviet Union.

There was almost nothing I liked about Wisconsin.  I was never so happy to board an airplane as I was upon leaving.  When the wheels left the runway, and the plane moved into the sky, I could feel the oppressive pull of socialism drifting away beneath my feet.  As I looked through  the window down at the rows and rows of middle-class homes stacked in rows of uniformity I could have been looking down upon a small European town also infected with socialism—soft core communism.  The persistence of that socialism doesn’t dissipate until just south of Chicago where Indiana is now a right-to-work state and Ohio at least outside of Cleveland still embraces capitalism.  I didn’t argue with the woman, I just listened to her while trying to read my book.   She was a mixed up concoction of many political ideologies given to her by years of public education, left-winged controlled media empires, and unionized neighbors who falsely believe they are American patriots just because they stick a flag on the back of their Harley Davidson motorcycle—built in Wisconsin by union workers supporting their publicly owned football team, the Green Bay Packers.  Wisconsin is the result of what The Naked Communist warned about, the continued experiment into socialism at the expense of capitalism and a state I am eager to see turn away  eventually from the communism of the labor movement and an embrace into the kind of capitalism that drives the rest of America.  It is time to close the book on the dark days of communism in America so to save the mind of the poor people of Wisconsin from a doomed philosophy that has left them ignorantly blissful from their lowered expectations and contorted patriotism.

Lakota Employees Seeking A $117.50 Per Month Pay Raise: The hidden intention of the 2013 Levy

Even some of my most bizarre claims written about here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom will prove over time and lack of emotional investment to be correct.  Truth is often stranger than any fiction, and the blackness of the hearts behind politics are more sinister than a conscious mind can often allow itself to comprehend.  And this has never been more true than the Lakota levy of 2013 where the claim of necessity has been the safety of students from unforeseen dangers, assistance to the parents by returning some busing privileges, and a maintenance of real estate values to the Lakota community.  The reality is much, much grimmer than that, and once it is understood and accepted reveals the true intention of the proposed tax increase, which can be seen in the following chart.  Lakota employees stand to make after the acceptance of the tax increase at least $117.50 more per month with the proposed raises lined up for a 2014 teacher’s contract with the LEA.  As wages in the private sector have hovered around stagnation, and the economy through government tampering has flat lined, government workers here in the form of Lakota teachers and administrators seek to defy market value with forced tax increases to do nothing but pad their own pockets with looted money—stolen through coercion and deceits.Slide 4

The coercion and deceits are the emotional pleas and out-right lies about the status of the Lakota finances and the cause of educational failure.  Lakota uses children as emotional hostages to move voters into seeing their point of view.  As government workers they are using the same strategy that was so evident during the government shutdown where even the Great Smoky Mountains was shut down to inconvenience visitors into voting for politicians who will continue throwing money into a bottomless pit of inefficiency, and unregulated spending.  Even when Blount County police offered to keep the park open by doing the job of the park rangers, it was rejected for the same reason that Lakota would never allow a person like me to step in and run Lakota from the teaching side, or the finance side the way it should be properly.  The goal is never to solve the problem in government, but only to create more if the terms are not meant.  In Lakota’s situation, they propose less pain to the community if they get a tax increase, but the only thing that will change is that the employees will get a raise when their current wages are already too high and most of their positions are completely unneeded.  Most of the assistant positions at Lakota could be eliminated completely without having any impact on education.  Many jobs at the administrative level were created by government for the benefit of government.  Most of the employees at Lakota outside of direct supervision spend most of their day gossiping to one another and playing on the internet.  They don’t do much, yet they expect to get a raise in pay when they already average over 30% more in compensation than the average Lakota tax payer.

The Lakota levy is about nothing but money and they are more than willing to use the children of the community as strategic bargaining chips of pure extortion to protect themselves from more economic bad times ahead.  2014 will also bring additional costs to the average tax payer of Lakota through the Obamacare impact that will drive up insurance premiums from one of the largest socialist programs ever attempted against the American people with the most intrusive wealth redistribution scam ever conducted.  The exact cost of that intrusion will not be known until insurance companies figure out how much they are allowed to drive up their costs now that they are even more of an oligopoly than they were before, as the federal government has just guaranteed their existence and profitability.  Just for being born, every living, breathing citizen is now required to purchase the product of health insurance as choice has been removed.  (No wonder insurance companies supported Obama on this matter)  It is an arrangement by the federal government for the good of itself.  Similarly, Lakota is doing the same thing.  Every human being born is required by the federal government to get an education approved by the state.  For most children that means the public school that dominates the politics of their local community.  No matter how good the school is, or bad, there isn’t any choice in the matter.  If school is not attended, and taxes paid to it, coercion will be used to either jail the perpetrators, or seize the property for lack of payment.  The threat of coercion keeps everyone paying money through taxes even when they know it’s fundamentally wrong.  Lakota knows this, so they can get by with their exploitation of their students and the parents because government has given them a monopoly over the education process, so performance is never the issue.  Lakota is free to hire unneeded staff to “create jobs, or go on strike through their education union to drive up their wage rates.  But make no mistake about it, the Lakota levy is about nothing other than giving the employees at Lakota an average pay raise of $117.50 per month.

Most every tax payer in Lakota during 2014 will pay a lot more in either taxes or health insurance premiums—likely both.  Most families could easily be paying more than $150 per month in 2014 for the same level of insurance as they had in 2013 just because of the wealth redistribution plan enacted by the government against them and on top of that, Social Security is set to increase as well.  Then there is the Lakota levy where yet another inefficient government blob of incestuous public employees wish to raise taxes on the same tax base that is already hurting—and the only reason they are doing it is because the employees at Lakota want a pay raise, when most of the tax payers contributing to the school have no prospect of any kind of raise in the foreseeable future.  Some of them will likely lose their jobs once Obamacare kicks in.   Employers will not be able to afford carrying them any longer due to the cost increases.  But Lakota doesn’t care because whenever they get into trouble they can afford to carry all their employees even when declining enrollment states they should have a massive layoff.  Lakota can do this because the federal government has given them coercive power over property owners due to a monopoly status.  When Lakota needs more money they just propose a tax increase and promise that the children of the tax payers will not be harmed if the money is paid.

Meanwhile the umbrella of the federal government through now health care, through Social Security, and especially education hits the same tax payers year after year with cost increases where they nickel and dime every productive citizen until there isn’t anything left—and they don’t care whether or not the system is sustainable or not.  They are government, and they only want what they want and don’t care about the expense.  Lakota is a government entity—nothing more or less.  And they want their minimum pay raises of $117.50 per month and they could care less what it does to the rest of their community.  For that reason alone, every person of right mind should VOTE NO on the Lakota levy, and they should not feel ashamed in any way.  Saying NO is the only measure of fiscal restraint that there is against such a system that is parasitic in nature, and destructive in every way conceivable extending well beyond the wildest conspiracy theory.  Saying NO is a responsibility dedicated to good judgment in the face of an encroaching evil known as the federal government which looks to feed off the innocent for the benefit of its own growth and social imposition.

Sheriff Jones Wants Cops In Lakota: The hidden danger of authority figures mixed with teenagers

I previously wrote about Sheriff Jones and his support of the Lakota school levy of 2013.  But it is important to understand the context of the Letter to the Editor he submitted to Today’s Pulse on Sunday, October 20, 2013.  In it Jones addressed his concern for increased school security that many government workers such as cops and teachers have sought to exploit in the wake of the Sandy Hook shooting.  Some of those exploitations are genuine concern, but most are parasitic attempts to pad the yearly budget approvals of their positions.  In Jones’ case if the Lakota levy is passed, the school has designated that $350,000 per year will go to security which helps employ more police officers, so as Sheriff of Butler County, and opponent of Senate Bill 5 and a major union supporter, Jones is looking out for his union brothers in law enforcement by aligning them with his friends in education.  Have a look at the Jones letter in favor of the Lakota levy.

Lakota is Taking security Seriously

 

School levies are never an easy topic to talk about and, as sheriff, it is not really part o my duties to actually deal with them.  But there is on levy coming up on the November ballot that I am willing to talk about – the Lakota School District levy.   Most of the funds from the proposed levy will go for things that it seems all schools have to contend with — like academic programs, technology hardware and software etc.  That’s all fine and good, but this levy also goes further, and actually sets aside funds for a topic that is of much greater concern to me – security! 

Our nation has seen several tragic in-school shootings over the last few years.  I have been very vocal in expressing my personal thoughts on how to make our schools safer by either putting more deputies/officers into the schools, or arming specially trained school personnel.  There are those who say that costs too much money, or is going too far in wanting to arm civilians.  I have proposed several other options, but a lot of school districts seem to have failed to even attempt to beef up security. 

The Lakota School District has been one of a few that have sought input from my office concerning school security.  Several recommendations were made.  I am proud to say that Lakota actually listened, and put together a plan that incorporates what I believe are several key components. 

While not publically discussing the intimate details (for security reasons) of that plan, it does call for one-time funding of physical changes within the schools themselves – upgrading alarms, cameras, retooling doors and entry areas, and the like. 

Most important, in my opinion, the plan also calls for tripling the number of on-duty uniformed sheriff’s deputies and West Chester Twp. Police officers assigned to work specifically in the Lakota schools.  Unfortunately, no plan in the world can ever guarantee absolute safety.  Yet you can’t just say, “I hoe something terrible never happens here.” 

When it comes to school security, there comes a time to take action, not just talk about it.  I like that Lakota is taking security seriously and wants to take action to make our school, students and teachers safer.  I use the word “our” because both of my children graduated from Lakota, and I am still a taxpayer within the Lakota district.  This levy is important to me personally. 

The economy in general has suffered greatly the last several years.  Everyone has had to learn to “do more with less.”  It seems everyone has had budget cuts.  But you just can’t cut forever.  Sooner or later, you have to realize that some things are important enough to pay for.  Only the voters will actually decide the outcome of the Lakota school levy and everything that it will fund. 

I support the Lakota school levy and urge everyone to do the same.  Pass this levy, it’s time. 

Richard K. Jones

Liberty Twp

 

Spoken like a real government worker.  In the world of Jones, as an authority figure, and popular local politician who has is fingers deep in the Republican party and attempts to curry favor with Tea Party types while also saddling up to unionized interests he represents everything that is wrong with government.  His support of the Lakota levy, especially this time is to get the proportionally small amount of money that has been promised to him if the levy passes for his police officers.  Lakota has a deal with Jones – they are essentially buying his support to employ more police officers and using a school tragedy to advance both positions.  Parents are concerned about safety after a highly covered mass school shooting, and these government workers are looking to exploit it.

But the real problem here is a little less obvious, and might seem minor if not looked at on its own.  When I submit a Letter to the Editor the word count limit is 300 words.  Those are the rules.  When anybody else submits a Letter to the Editor, the word count is 300 words.  I often compose my letters right at 300 squeezing everything I can out of the space—the way the rules dictate.  The Jones letter shown above is 489 words, 189 words over the limit.  This small little detail says everything.

Jones is a public official of noted popularity so obviously the newspaper applied different rules for him.  They allowed him to exceed the limit of their word count.  Police in general have this luxury in society, they often can speed without being pulled over—when they do, their brothers let them off the hook, and they can break the law anytime they want—all they have to do is flip on their lights and proceed through an intersection ignoring the laws.  They do the same thing with budgets.  When they need more money, they simply write more speeding tickets to fill up their treasury.  They are trolls collecting tolls most of the time, aside from the occasional domestic violence issue that arises every now and then.  When the police need their budget approved, or need a public relations victory, they make an occasional drug bust so they can get into the newspapers and make everyone think they are doing a good job.

I’m sure Jones knows everyone in Butler County who buys, sells, or is involved in any notable way to the drug trade.  Yet only occasionally are drug busts conducted and even then, it’s always some stupid kids who play into the immigration reform debate.  I know that there is a lot more drug activity going on that does not get coverage and if I were the police, they would be busted, but they aren’t – so why is it?

The fact of the matter is that there are different rules in society for different people.  People on the political inside, who are part of the accepted system, have one set of rules, and people on the outside have another set of rules.  Cops function from different rules than the civilian population.  They will argue that they are protecting society, and there is no evidence that they are doing anything other than such an activity, because there is not yet technology that can read minds.  But in knowing some of these law enforcement types, they are like the college kids who run around dorm rooms with fake FBI badges telling girls they must inspect their bras and panties for their own good and safety.  After they feel-out the girls, they reveal that they are not part of the Federal Bureau of Investigations looking for terrorists, but Female Body Inspectors looking to feel-out hot chicks who are half drunk on a Friday night.  For the kids and the actual FBI agent it’s all harmless fun.  But for the victim, it’s not so wonderful.  They live under different rules than the cops, so even if the authority figure is legitimate or not, they must comply or face arrest.  If the cop makes such a mistake, they get off with a warning over beer and nachos.

Putting more cops in schools sounds like a recipe for disaster.  It’s like putting a wolf in the hen house.  I know of several incidents where cops in Hamilton were relieved of their duty forcing young girls pulled over to perform sexual acts to keep from getting a ticket.  How do I know, because one of those two knuckle draggers called me for a referral.  I knew their wife who was also a cop, and a network of police that extended from Springboro to Clermont County and the amount of sexual play that goes on between police officers is pathetic.  That officer called me after he lost his job in Hamilton from another state needing a good word badly.  Of course he didn’t get it.

It might seem like a little thing to Jones and the editors at Today’s Pulse to give the Sheriff an extra 189 words, but what they are declaring is that the Sheriff lives by different rules than the rest of us, and the police generally know it.  It is not safe to put a bunch of cops in a school with a bunch of teenage girls, unless they are all retired and have had their prostrates removed.  Just having an officer of the law in a school with a gun does not make children safe.  It might keep children from getting killed by a deranged gunman, but it might introduce dangers that are nearly as corrosive to the lives of children who really don’t need the hassle.

The TSA was created because of panic by society and a government quick to exploit it.  Now it is impossible to fly anywhere commercially without some pencil-neck looking at our private parts on a monitor or feeling out some attractive woman who happens to come through security.  And these days, just because a man is checking a man, and a woman is checking a woman, it doesn’t mean the officer isn’t getting a rise out of the experience.  As social resistance toward homosexuality lowers, the chances of some guy enjoying feeling out the bulge of a weary traveler increases dramatically, or some lesbian caressing a female passenger’s breasts—all in the name of safety.

Sheriff Jones can go on WLW and declare to his buddy Bill that I’m overacting, and that it’s unpatriotic to question the merit of police officers, but the evidence that cops live under different rules than the rest of us is shown above.  Today’s Pulse gave Sheriff Jones 489 words to support a Lakota levy, which is an obvious payoff for his support. And nobody is supposed to question the support because we are supposed to trust law enforcement.  Meanwhile, there are drug deals being conducted in the open and in large quantities, the immigration issue is out of control as far as what gets smuggled in and out of Butler County – because of the affluence–and the only way the Sheriff can find to keep $350,000 worth of payroll busy is put them in Lakota schools.  Something is very fishy.

What would happen if I tried to write more than 300 words in Today’s Pulse, or anybody else?  The editor would call us and ask how we could trim down our submissions to fit the guidelines.  If it’s a government worker like Superintendent Mantia who gets her own column, or Sheriff Jones, the rules go out the window.

So what would happen if police were put in charge of watching over thousands of teenagers armed with guns and authority?  Most of the police would be sincere—but a few—a few would take advantage of the situation.  You can bet on that.

Keep the cops out of the schools……………………for the safety of the kids.  This isn’t an isolated problem.  Its epidemic.  Who in their right mind thinks Lakota can keep abuse from happening when they can’t even keep teachers from sexting students?  Knowing Jones a bit, I can say that Jones is not a bad man, and publicly he will defend his officers because law enforcement is all he knows, he’s done it his entire life.  To admit anything of the facts presented in the above videos to himself would be a failure in belief of all his intellectual foundations.  Jones upon reading this I’m sure will say………….”hey, I didn’t make up the system, I’m just making do with what I’ve got.  I’m just the sheriff.”  But the trouble is, until somebody questions that system and stands up against it with a mirror, it only gets worse and worse and worse.  For that reason, Jones is wrong in supporting the Lakota levy for all the reasons mentioned and more that could fill volumes of books.  But the biggest is that Jones is only the sheriff, and he wishes to keep his fellow law enforcement officers relevant in a society that is becoming increasingly weary of the laws politicians created in the first place–so the trend is to grip tighter, which is the wrong thing.  It would be wrong to put police in Lakota because cops are human beings, and they are fallible.  And that fallibility is more dangerous than the remote chance that Sandy Hook could happen at Lakota, as the random odds of destruction intellectually is much, much greater with more authority figures in place to abuse power unregulated.

Justin Binik-Thomas For Deer Park School Board: Listen to him on the air with Matt Clark

If you live in the Deer Park school district then you know by now  you are lucky to have the opportunity to vote for Justin Binick-Thomas for school board.  Justin rightly believes that he can solve some of the education issues that are going on in Ohio from the inside and he’s putting his time and money where his mouth is.  Justin is a friend of mine, so I know he is beyond corruption, and I couldn’t think of a better mind than his to work on school board.  There will not be any sending Justin Binick-Thomas to a OSBA conference in Columbus and expecting him to become indoctrinated by the education empire of statism.  Rather, Justin’s heart is pure, and he is as righteous as anyone can expect.  This is why he was on the WAAM radio in Ann Arbor, Michigan over this past weekend to talk to another friend of mine, Matt Clark during the Clarkcast—saving the Republic one broadcast at a time.

It might be remembered that Justin is the guy at the center of the IRS scandal as he was targeted directly by the IRS as one of the founders of the Cincinnati Tea Party.  During the broadcast with Matt, Justin spoke a bit about the current status of that particular scandal which is ongoing.   Justin also spoke about the nature of Common Core and his thoughts about state dictated education practices versus those driven from the kind of school boards he is attempting to become a member of.

The way it was supposed to work is that good school boards had direct control over their costs, and the educational content.   Some school districts would naturally be better than others so families would be attracted to school districts that were of a higher quality than school districts that were poorly run.  The education system was conceived with competition in mind, and this was to reflect the capitalist nature of American education.  However, labor unions over the last 50 years have lobbied hard to remove competition from the education system, and following the socialist model of their founding sought to make all school districts equal no matter what their location which has culminated in complete state-run education dictated from WashingtonD.C. in the form of Common Core.

Justin’s attempt in running for school board is to reverse this corrosive trend and wrestle away from state control those items in education that belong under the control of communities.  Still school boards insist during each election that school levies should be passed so that they can manage their districts, but due to union control modern school boards have little power over anything but to raise money for their unions which have infected their districts like insects.  Justin will not be this kind of school board member.

Education as it is today is dictated by the state departments of education and school districts are left to deal with the aftermath of all the unfunded mandates.  Children are the direct victims of this policy and the danger of ruining the minds of entire generations with concepts of statism is alarmingly evident.  Justin is offering the people of Deer Park the kind of school board member who truly has the values of his community at heart, before the federal Department of Education was created in 1979, before President Bush’s “No Child Left Behind” statism, and now Common Core—all attempts of by the federal government to control education with the same vigor they wish to control the environment, the economy, health care, and virtually every aspect of human life.  Justin Binik-Thomas is offering to be the kind of school board member that was often elected prior to those government intrusions, and that is a rare find.

A vote for Justin Binik-Thomas is the best thing you can do for your child if you live in the Deer Park school district and care about the education your child is getting.  I often say that modern schools are just glorified baby sitting services driven by union radicalism demanding extraordinary pay for the employees.  Justin is an old-fashioned candidate who has all the ability to retake American education one district at a time starting with his own.  A vote for Justin is a vote for goodness, intelligence, and a better America by inspiring children with a real education, instead of the crap they are given through modern state-run institutions.

Say NO To Perverts At Lakota: Sex, Sex, and More Sex–three times in four months during a levy campaign

Sex, and sex and more sex at Lakota schools with underage girls.  The reckless antics by Lakota employees continue even under the microscope of tax increase attempts going on the ballot.  For the third time in four months a full or part-time Lakota employee has been accused of having improper communications or contact with female students, as reported by the Cincinnati Enquirer.  The situation is so out of control that it is absolutely terrifying to consider how many of these employees have not yet been caught.

“In July, an Enquirer search of public records revealed that a full-time Lakota West math teacher – George Merk – had his teaching license suspended for 45 days during the summer break under an agreement with state education officials.

Merk admitted to state official’s improper behavior in communicating with some students but did not cross into physical contact.

And later in July, Robert E. Supinger, a long-term substitute teacher at Lakota West, was accused of kissing a student whom he also took to meet his parents.

Supinger was investigated by Lakota officials while he was teaching during the 2011-12 school year. Last July, state education officials revoked the 25-year-old Supinger’s teaching license; he is no longer allowed to teach in Ohio.”

If you are stupid………….and I mean really, really stupid, join the levy cheerleaders on the For Lakota website in supporting the child molesters who are employed by Lakota.   If you are smart, articulate and speak in complete sentences join the rest of the Lakota school district at the No Lakota Levy website where truth, justice and the American way are all that keep these parasites from having unfettered access to the wealth of Liberty Twp and West Chester property values.

And if you have a daughter and think they are safe at Lakota schools…………..you are stupid!

Really, stupid.

Libby Williams Letter To The Editor: All the reasons to vote NO on the 2013 Lakota Levy

Obviously the supporters of the 2013 Lakota levy have no idea how things work in the private sector.  Only in government could they say the kind of things they do and expect to get away with it.  In journalism, at least the way the industry used to be, editors would force answers to questions, who, what, why, when and where.  In manufacturing, the standard question when something is amiss would be to identify the “five whys.”  But with Lakota schools and the levy cheerleaders advocating tax increases upon a community for some mythical reason, let us identify the Letter to the Editor of Libby Williams who is this time around the Lakota Levy Chairperson for the tax increase.  What is shown below is the letter Libby wrote unedited as it appeared in Today’s Pulse, Sunday, October 20, 2013.No Lakota Slide 3 B

Keep Lakota Excellence a Priority

For the last two years, our district leaders have been listening.  They met with parents, business leaders, seniors, supporters, and nonsuppoters alike to find out what our community desires from their schools.  Those thoughts, paired with the knowledge of what our students’ needs are for a quality and sustainable education, were used to determine the levy that we have on the ballot Nov. 5.

We have seen over $20 million in cuts to programs and people.  Over 600 students can no longer participate in activities because they are cost prohibitive.  Those changers are starting to affect our product – out students.

Let’s keep quality and excellence a priority.  Join me in voting yes for Lakota – either at the board of elections before Nov. or at your precinct on Election Day.

Every vote counts to help get our schools and our community back on track.  We are Lakota, and we need you.

Libby Williams

Lakota Levy Chair

Liberty Twp.

Without question Libby is just a nice concerned parent who wants what she thinks is best for her child. Every time there is one of these levy attempts Lakota’s management finds a few neurotic parents to use for their needs, so I won’t lambast the poor woman needlessly.   The world is full of people like this pro tax chairperson For Lakota that are full of good intentions.  However, it must be remembered that the path to hell is always paved with good intentions.  In fact, most of the time, the path to hell is an 8 lane highway while the path to heaven is a dirt road nearly covered with grown over grass.  The path to hell is always lined with all the fun stuff, the emotional eye candy, while the path to heaven is uneventful and rather desolate, so the former has a lot more attraction over the latter, but the facts remain.  So in order to ascertain the ridiculousness of the statements provided in the pro tax letter, let us apply the industry standard “Five Whys” to understand that the statements from Libby are simply those from a Lakota cheerleader and have nothing to do with the conditions of the game being played.  Let’s look now at some of the key parts of Libby’s letter and provide the proper questions analyzed the way the private sector does.  After each “WHY” I will provide the answer.

For the last two years, our district leaders have been listening.  They met with parents, business leaders, seniors, supporters, and nonsuppoters alike to find out what our community desires from their schools

  1. 1.       Why did the “leaders” meet?
    1. a.      Obviously Mantia and the school board were using a proven Saul Alinsky method of consensus building where they spent many tens of thousands of tax dollars on the Jeffery Stec facilitator methods of gathering everyone together and letting them vent with a kind of “group hug” mentality.  Lakota never planned to “listen” to anybody they only planned to let people believe it so that unity could be formed in those collaborations. 
    2. 2.       Why did the leaders believe they needed to listen to the community after three elections told them the answer?
      1. a.      The over 18,000 voters who cast NO votes during the last election was all the voice of the community Lakota needed.  Yet they chose to ignore those elections and spend even greater money on building “teamwork.”  No Lakota Levy actually hosted some of these events.  It was obvious that Mantia believed that these consensus building exercises would take the edge off the tempers and bring the community around to seeing things her way.  Once she had all the different groups together who opposed her tax increases in front of Jeffery she believed that they would not oppose her in the next election.  She never planned to listen, only to take the edge off everyone’s tempers.  Obviously now that the signs for No Lakota Levy are out again, and there are ads in the paper, a new website and more people than ever wanting to join No Lakota Levy, those efforts, and the many thousands of dollars they cost, were a complete waste. 
      2. 3.       Why two years, were they hoping that voters would forget about the previous three defeats and the conditions contributing to those defeats?  Did they hope that No Lakota Levy would disband and go back to other business?  Did they hope that I would lose the desire to engage the situation and move on to something else?  What is so important about waiting two years?
        1. a.      Lakota obviously believed that the “Rich Hoffman” era of tax resistance would fade if they stopped throwing fuel on the fire.  This time around they have made a point not to engage directly with aggression hoping to soften their image after my exposure of their antics over the years.  They determined to prove that they were the opposite of everything I have said about them.  So they cut a deal with me through No Lakota Levy to back off and let them recover their public image—which I agreed to so to save the community further grief.  A two year break at the ballot box was worth it.  But the minute they announced their intentions, it was time to get back to work.  Now they have what I promised in the Cincinnati Enquirer two years ago when they came after me with all their blazing guns, which backfired—that in the next election they would have to worry about two tax opponents instead of one, and since I wasn’t working with No Lakota Levy any longer, I would be free to speak my mind, instead of the softer dialogue I used before as a spokesman to a group who didn’t feel the kind of conviction I do against public education in general.
        2. 4.       When they met with those groups, why did Lakota then determine that it was OK to put on a levy when many of those groups expressed that taxes were too high already?
          1. a.      After the last levy, and during the “community conversations” Lakota was told they needed to reduce their wages at Lakota by 5%.  However, Lakota decided not to listen to that statement and proceed on with further wage increases for 2014 when a new union contract is coming due.  When property owners told Jeffery and the gang that taxes were already too high, there was a lot of head nodding, but no action taken, purposely. 
          2. 5.       Why does Lakota believe listening is enough?  Why is “action” on that information not pursued?  Anyone can listen, but it’s what is done with the information that is more important.
            1. a.      This is the typical reaction of any government institution. They will do what they determine to be best.  When they “listen” they only hope to pull you into their line of thinking.  They will not yield their position.  They only care to advance matters further to the political left.  By listening, they hope that through kindness they can pull people over to their beliefs.  But they never had any intention of taking community suggestions applying them to the business side of the Lakota levy.  They only hoped to delay a tax increase for a short time and let tempers cool so they could try again before the 2014 union contract negotiations.  That was their only objective during the entire time.  

Those thoughts, paired with the knowledge of what our students’ needs are for a quality and sustainable education, were used to determine the levy that we have on the ballot Nov. 5. 

  1. 1.       Why is “quality” in question?
    1. a.      As it has been stated here at Overmanwarrior’s Wisdom many times, Lakota is a good school not because of the employees they have, but due to the kind of parents of the students themselves.  Most of the families producing the children at Lakota at least care about their kids, they have nice homes, nice jobs, and nice cars with Blue Ray players in the back seats for kids to watch while being shuttled around from one activity to another—the parents at least are engaged in their children’s lives.  There aren’t many neighborhoods in the Lakota district filled with degenerate welfare recipients and unmanaged children with token “baby mommas.”  Most parents at least care about their children’s futures, even if that concern often gets translated into neurosis.  So Lakota is starting with kids who have a generally good home life, which is the key to raising successful children.  Lakota’s success is due exclusively to the quality of their students, not the quality of the staff.  I have said many times, all the employees at Lakota could be fired and replaced with new employees’ right out of college, and the results would be the same, because the kids and their parents are better than in areas around Cincinnati where strong family values are not recognized. 
    2. 2.       How does money create quality, and why is money short at Lakota?
      1. a.      Money does not create quality, so there is no statistic that Lakota can present to justify the over $60K average that employees at Lakota make through their collective bargaining agreements.  Money is paid to reward those who are exceptional—but through the union collective bargaining agreement the exceptional and the bad all get paid together.  The teacher who really cares about the life of their students gets paid on a scale the same as the sexual deviant who is trying to “bang” the mother one of his students, (You know who you are cocksucker) or send sexually provocative texts to their students hoping to get back naked pictures of teenagers in heat.  This whole collective bargaining concept is an absolute joke, and should be abolished. The politicians who allowed the union lobby to shove them in this direction in the 1980s should be walked off a short plank into a sea of sharks and piranhas, and we should never look back!  And no, I do not like bad people, or those who are up to no good.  I especially do not like to be forced to pay for these scum bags with my tax money. 
      2. 3.       Why are student needs connected to the radicalism of labor disputes?
        1. a.      We saw the same tactic during the recent government shutdown, parks were closed, monuments roped off, while President Obama spent $4 million to fly to Hawaii on Air Force One.  The bussing cuts, the pay to play fees, the cuts in electives, and every painful imposition at Lakota was done to hurt the tax payer by hurting their children.  Meanwhile the teachers are banging each other and trying to seduce their students with a Brave New World orgy porgy mentality. (Go ahead, click the link to see the truth). It is so common I am tired of hearing about all the incidents.  The behavior is reckless, and pathetic.  Lakota wants to justify their collective bargaining agreement with their employees which averages over $63K per year!  To protect that, they will put the hurt on children and their parents in a New York minute—and that is the exclusive reason that students have suffered.  It was Superintendent Mantia’s call, her fault, and her track record that she now has to defend. 
        2. 4.       Why is education not sustainable?
          1. a.      Lakota has maintained an Excellent with Distinction now every year for a decade in spite of not having a levy passed since 2005.  I fought that levy back in 2005 too, and so my resistance to taxes is not new.  The quality of the school is not determined by the administrators or the teachers; it is determined by the parents—as stated.  The Excellence with Distinction is a scam that is awarded to superintendents who are good at playing the political angle.  It has nothing to do with quality.  Lakota is in the tough position of having to make a decision to deliberately wreck their ranking so they can justify their tax increases, or letting it resume being good proving that money does not equate to quality.  That strategy was implemented long ago to draw out this very purpose, and the results are clear.   Their comments that the education level is not sustainable is deliberately vague, the sustainability of the wage levels is not, but the class sizes, the types of classes, the condition of the schools are all very sustainable.  The collective bargaining agreement with employees making all over $60K per year is not. 
          2. 5.       Why is this information being placed at this time in 2013, specifically in November.
            1. a.      As stated Lakota has a contract renewal with the LEA in June of 2014 so to get the money lined up for the pay increases that have been promised, they must have the money lined up by the start of the next fiscal year.  Lakota gambled when they cut their deal with me hoping that two years would be enough time for my influence to fade from the public scene and the network that No Lakota Levy had established would erode away.  They figured that if they could isolate the press from my “radicalism” then they’d have a shot.  They also wanted to wait for an off year election.  It would have been murder for them to try this attempt during the last presidential election because the Lakota school district is mostly raw conservative.  The only supporters of Lakota who are not neurotic parents are fellow government employees who live off looted tax money.  This year there aren’t many big elections, no governor races, no congressional or senate races, only smaller issues—so the schools are attacking now hoping they can get enough turnout without having too much turnout.  Too much hurts them, and too little turn-out hurts them, they need it to be just the right amount where it’s all the neurotic levy supporters while the No Votes stay home.  This is why Fairfield is trying for another levy so soon, Lebanon, and so on with many dozens of others.  It’s all about timing and getting the odds stacked in their favor.  They don’t give a damn about the actual will of the community, only to skip by the process with numbers to their favor.   They could have tried for spring or summer elections, but they didn’t at Lakota because they knew the numbers were not there.  They hoped by using the community conversations method that they’d build up a voter base, take away the opposition, and put time and distance from their antics of the past.  But they must do it before 2014.  They also know that they will have to go to voters again in 2017, so they need time for people to forget about this tax increase so they can have about 3 years before asking again.  Those costs are driven exclusively by their collective bargaining agreement with the LEA.

 

We have seen over $20 million in cuts to programs and people.  Over 600 students can no longer participate in activities because they are cost prohibitive.

  1. Why was $20 million cut?
    1. As painful as Lakota tries to make it sound, the $20 million in cuts are perfectly in line with what they should be due to declining enrollment.  Lakota as a district is entering a phase of mature development.  The homes are more expensive than average meaning there are fewer buyers able to live in the community who have school age kids—leaving more mature investors to purchase real estate.   Most of those mature investors do not have children in the district, so enrollment is dropping at Lakota considerably.  CLICK HERE TO SEE AN EXPLAINATION.  Not having those $20 million in cuts would have been irresponsible.  That would mean that there would be $20 million worth of non essential personnel on the Lakota payroll.  The fact that those cuts occurred is to the credit of No Lakota Levy for forcing the issue.  If there had not been a defeat in the previous three elections, Lakota would not have made those needed cuts.  They will have to make many more cuts in the future—because of declining enrollment.
    2. Why can over 600 students no longer participate in activities?
      1. 600 students were pushed out of the extra circular activities because of the enormous costs to the students.  No Lakota Levy tried to help with this by releiveing students of some of the pressure, but this caused Lakota to lash out at me very publically as they knew they could not afford to lose the children as an extortion device.  CLICK HERE TO READ A FORBES ARTICLE DONE ABOUT ME, AND NO LAKOTA LEVY.  The fees created by the mismanagement of Lakota’s resources caused 600 students to lose the ability to participate in extra circular activities.   The services were paid for by the community, yet the management at Lakota chose to use children in an exploitive way to pad their collective bargaining agreements.  It’s that simple.
      2. Why are extracurricular activities cost prohibitive?
        1. The fee was set high on activities so to make it hard on the parents.  The intention is for parents to complain to their neighbors and for the information to spread like wildfire from home to home and upon election time, voters are supposed to vote in favor of tax increases to alleviate the pain placed on the original complaining neighbor.  This tactic is taught at Levy University each year at the OSBA Conference in Columbus, Ohio.  How do I know—I have many friends who have been to it and reported exactly what goes on there.  The practice is EXTORTION!
        2. Why were cuts needed?
          1. There weren’t.  They were implemented as an extortive measure.
          2. Why is management so poor that these conditions arise?
            1. Lakota management does not have control of the ship, by law.  The union lobby has made it so that legally school boards can do very little to control their budgets.  Anything the school board tries to do to manage their money ends up disputed and in arbitration.  This is why the only kind of superintendents that are brought into a district is former teachers who have been molded by the system for the benefits of the system.  Where Lakota management goes wrong is that they side with their radical labor force rather than the rest of the community so that they can keep the internal peace.  The union radicals use nice people like Libby Williams to do their dirty work for them as they hide in the shadows and drive up costs behind the exploitation of children.  It’s a bad system that goes so far to be considered outright evil.

 

Every vote counts to help get our schools and our community back on track.  We are Lakota, and we need you. 

  1. 1.       This is why I call the levy advocates cheerleaders, and why I think the whole idea is so stupid.  The score in the game could be 100 to nothing and the cheerleaders still stand on the sideline doing their little dances and saying things like, “let’s go team.”  I addressed this issue back in April provoking this response in the Pulse Journal from one of those levy cheerleaders who reside in the shadows behind Libby.  CLICK HERE TO READ MUCH MORE, but here is the letter written on the subject. 

Lakota Schools Still Worth ‘Cheering’ For

Lakota FacebookHere we go again:”……levy addict…glorified community baby-sitting service.”

Wasn’t Rich Hoffman already discredited by the media one year ago because of phrases like this and previous comments such as “…crazy PTA moms and their minions of latte drinking despots with diamond rings the size of car tires and assess to match…”

 

Maybe Mr. Hoffman thinks its clever using metaphors comparing levy supporters to mindless cheerleaders (another attack on women).  Unlike his approach, I prefer to use facts.

 

Mr. Hoffman claims that Lakota will “see an influx” of tax revenue after new developments are built.  That sounds great, but it’s not reality. Commercial property contributes very little to school funding and has not kept pace with residential growth.  Gov. John Kasich cut $1.8 billion from schools over the last two years and his current budget increases funding for charter schools and proposes additional vouchers on private schools, once again depriving public education of money.

Ohio’s charter schools received $775 million from the state last year.  That amount of money could fund numerous public school districts.

 

Lakota Treasurer Jenni Logan predicts the district will face a $1.8 million dollar budget deficit by 2014.  This is after $35 million in cuts over the last three years, which has resulted in minimal bus transportation; larger classes; fewer days for art, music and gym; no reading specialists; a dismantled gifted program, etc.

 

Even with these cuts, Lakota schools are still worth “cheering” for.  We are not part of a losing team, but our children and grandchildren could lose out on future opportunities if there isn’t more financial support.  So, let’s drown out the Rich Hoffmans of our community by making the next levy a successful one.  If that happens, we all win.

 

Laura Sanders

 

  1. As stated above, Lakota hopes to drown out people like me so that nobody sees what’s really going on.  If the text above is clicked on, I dispute everything said point for point.  But basically, the levy cheerleaders have no grip on reality, no understanding of economics, no concept that they are allowing their children to be used as extortion pawns, and no will to question anything.  They just want to stand on the sideline and do their cheering for the sake of feeling important.

I could speak forever on all the reasons why the Lakota levy is a bad idea and why the people behind it are up to no good.  But the best way to beat them is with a levy defeat.  The best way to shut them up, shut them down, and drown them out is by showing up to vote against them.   The only way to manage money in the Lakota district is to keep it out of their hands.  If voters do that, they can strike a blow that will resonate for many years.  It will end careers that deserve to be ended, it will flush out the garbage as they will seek employment elsewhere, and it will set a standard that other schools will have to duplicate.  The way to silence the lies is to force them to eat the truth, and the way to do that is to take away their money.  And that is the real fear behind the cheers, is that if Lakota does not get this levy, their bluffs will have been called, and they will be forced into a labor dispute that will force them to pick sides.   The only way that can happen is if voters show up, and show up in unusually high numbers to decline tax increases and force Lakota to live within its means.

Communist Planks 18-21: Obamacare is communism and why Republicans are defenseless

What was the government shutdown all about?  What are the Republicans fighting against and why were the Democrats so intent to hold their line?  President Obama made many speeches during the debates of October 2013, and all of them had a general theme that Republicans were not allowed to shut down the government just to get what they wanted—which was an end to socialized medicine known as Obamacare.  The media turned against the GOP in predictable ways and pundits went immediately to work supporting President Obama.  There was never a mention by the press that the same tactic the GOP was using to hold up the destructive implementation of Obamacare was the same tactic used by labor unions who strike often to “get what they want” and support President Obama exclusively.  In the end, the GOP caved and Obama advanced the communist position that is the wind in his sales more to the political left fulfilling further advancement of the 45 Planks of Communism that were outlined in the warning book from 1958 called The Naked Communist.  This article is part of a running series I’m doing on the intended strategy communists intentionally inflicted on America to destroy capitalism and by the evidence presented during the shutdown, the effectiveness of communist planks 18, 19, 20, and 21 are easy to see.  CLICK HERE TO REVIEW PAST ARTICLES.  What we are seeing right now is the result of a communist attack that started in the 1930s, and occurred so slow that nobody paid attention as the names were changed to “progressivism” from open communism.  Obamacare and President Obama are communists.  It doesn’t matter what they call themselves, their behavior is exactly the same as the terrible communists of yesteryear, and their rise to power in The White House was made possible by the following Planks from that old book.

18. Gain control of all student newspapers.

19. Use student riots to foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

20. Infiltrate the press. Get control of book-review assignments, editorial writing, policy making positions.

21. Gain control of key positions in radio, TV, and motion pictures.

Ayn Rand, tried to warn America along with Walt Disney, John Wayne, Gary Cooper and many others that communism was doing exactly what Communist Plank 21 stated, and infiltrating itself into the motion picture industry.  CLICK HERE TO READ A VERY REVEALING DOCUMENT FROM THE TIME.  Back then those film producers and actors were the mainstream, and Senator McCarthy represented a portion of America that felt similarly, and they saw communism as a major threat to American sovereignty.  The communists won against McCarthy the same way that they won against the GOP, and eventually John Wayne, Walt Disney and everyone else standing behind Ayn Rand’s Motion Picture Guide designed to root out communists.  They were defeated by public sentiment.   That public sentiment was shaped by the communists capture of the above planks.  The victor defines history, and communism won behind the lines during the 1950’s so by the time Ayn Rand published her Screen Guide for Americans it was already over.  McCarthy was too late, the communist philosophy had already penetrated the American culture and was able to shape the Senator as a radical traditionalist through the media establishment firmly trained in communism.

I have written about how Ronald Reagan in his younger days actually applied for communist membership.  He did it well before he ever thought of being President of The United States because during the Red Decade of the 1930s communism was a fashion trend that was all the rage.  CLICK HERE FOR PROOF.   Reagan was the head of his labor union at the time and all his fellow actors were advocating the benefits of communism at their Hollywood parties. Ayn Rand, Disney and Wayne had firsthand knowledge of this activity which is why Rand wrote her “Guide.”   Reagan played along as a strapping young leading man in movies thinking it was just innocent fun, until he made a film in England and saw the devastating effects socialism had on the English economy.  That was when he became a Republican and began building a career as a spokesman for GE honing himself for a governor race, and eventually President—attacking communism, instead of trying to join it.  It was one of the causes of his divorce from his first wife who continued to run with the “in” Hollywood crowd hell-bent on communism.  A few years later, communism was everywhere, only they changed the name after the McCarthy hearings to avoid going to jail as members of the Hollywood Ten did.

The Hollywood blacklist—as the broader entertainment industry blacklist is generally known—was the mid-20th-century practice of denying employment to screenwriters, actors, directors, musicians, and other U.S. entertainment professionals because of their suspected political beliefs or associations. Artists were barred from work on the basis of their alleged membership in or sympathy with the American Communist Party, involvement in progressive political causes that enforcers of the blacklist associated with communism, and refusal to assist investigations into Communist Party activities. Even during the period of its strictest enforcement, the late 1940s through the late 1950s, the blacklist was rarely made explicit and verifiable, but it caused direct damage to the careers of scores of individuals working in the film industry.

The first systematic Hollywood blacklist was instituted on November 25, 1947, the day after ten writers and directors were cited for contempt of Congress for refusing to give testimony to the House Committee on Un-American Activities. A group of studio executives, acting under the aegis of the Motion Picture Association of America, announced the firing of the artists—the so-called Hollywood Ten—in what has become known as the Waldorf Statement. On June 22, 1950, a pamphlet called Red Channels appeared, focusing on the field of broadcasting. It named 151 entertainment industry professionals in the context of “Red Fascists and their sympathizers”; soon most of those named, along with a host of other artists, were barred from employment in much of the entertainment field. The blacklist was effectively broken in 1960 when Dalton Trumbo, an unrepentant member of the Hollywood Ten, was publicly acknowledged as the screenwriter of the films Spartacus and Exodus. A number of those blacklisted, however, were still barred from work in their professions for years afterward.

Joseph Raymond “Joe” McCarthy (November 14, 1908 – May 2, 1957) was an American politician who served as a Republican U.S. Senator from the state of Wisconsin from 1947 until his death in 1957. Beginning in 1950, McCarthy became the most visible public face of a period in which Cold War tensions fueled fears of widespread Communist subversion.[1] He was noted for making claims that there were large numbers of Communists and Soviet spies and sympathizers inside the United States federal government and elsewhere. Ultimately, his tactics and inability to substantiate his claims led him to be censured by the United States Senate.

The term McCarthyism, coined in 1950 in reference to McCarthy’s practices, was soon applied to similar anti-communist activities. Today the term is used more generally in reference to demagogic, reckless, and unsubstantiated accusations, as well as public attacks on the character or patriotism of political opponents.[2]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joseph_McCarthy

Regardless of what anyone thinks of McCarthy, of his sanity, of his alcoholism, of his credibility, it was obvious that he had an unfiltered fear of communism as he observed it in his day.  He fought what he thought was a good and valiant fight for the future of America.  To measure against there is a new blacklist in Hollywood and the roles have been reversed.  It is now nearly exclusively progressives who run the show as conservatives tread shallow water and only if they have large box office ability.  The communists had already gained strong enough positions that they could shape public sentiment against McCarthy.  By the end of his hearings, McCarthy had taken a beating that still resonates to this day among Republicans afraid of being thrown in with the radicalism of McCarthy.  It is one of the Democrats primary weapons against Republicans to paint them as radicals like McCarthy forcing members of the GOP to prove otherwise.  That strategy is one designed by communism through planks 18-21.

(Have any doubts?  Watch this whole thing.  Grab a snack…………………and listen carefully)

The current debt crises is an intentional breaking of the American capitalist system as communist trained minds functioning as progressives and Democrats seek to implement soft socialism leading to communism at every opportunity.  In that fight Republicans are continuously disarmed as they still try to distance themselves from politicians like Senator McCarthy and the modern Senator Ted Cruz.  Even if those politicians come off sounding as kooks, the definition of kookiness was molded by the modern media which has been infiltrated with communist thought renamed “progressive.” McCarthy and Cruz may be 100% correct in their assertions, but the way their facts were communicated to the public remains under the control of communist planks 18-21 so the public sentiment in a majority will always be against them.  This is why communists sought to take control of the student newspapers, invoke riots among student populations, gain control of the media in every way possible—so that the communists could shape the way tomorrow viewed their philosophy of collectivism with a favorable light.

Now watch this if you dare!  

Obamacare is communism.  Bill O’Reilly is wrong to suggest that it is OK to allow Obamacare to be implemented and once it is, the people under democratic rule will elect politicians to repeal it. The intention of communists is not to give health care to poor people as it is proposed, and defended by Fox News commentators like O’Reilly.  The intention is to make more poor people to act as foot soldiers against society overwhelming the system so to destroy American capitalism.  Obamacare seeks to gain control of the American economy and once they have it, they don’t intend to let it go.  Their plot is the result many years of planning and Obamacare was their aim.  So they won’t let it go without a major fight—a fight that cannot be won playing nice.  Only a series of strong patriots more radical than Senator McCarthy, wiser than Ayn Rand, more charismatic than Walt Diseny, and more representative of the alpha male than John Wayne can have a crack at defeating these American communists who are now as common as grains of sand upon a vast beach—the fight will be a bloody one, metaphorically, and physically, but it must take place if capitalism is to survive.  Because the communists have always intended for capitalism to perish, and they penetrated the media through communist planks 18-21 to achieve their tactical aims.

Sheriff Jones Loses To Superintendent Mantia: Another Republican caves to political pressure

Of course Sheriff Jones fresh off his fundraiser duties for Cindy Carpenter is going to vote for the Lakota Levy.  He is part of the same generation that gave us all Medicare, huge national debts, and supports the kind of Republican that John Kasich is now, and the kind John Boehner has always been, soft compromising losers who allow themselves to be talked in to spending other people’s stolen tax money for the “greater good.”  Jones like those other Republicans has also recently caved on his position, where he stated he would not support a Lakota levy until there were police officers in the school hired to  protect students to avoid another Sandy Hook massacre—which Lakota has tried to exploit as a reason to support more tax increases.  Lakota blew off Jones and all his supposed power in politics to play their same hard-line yank to the left for all their opponents.  John Kasich lost to Obama going from a Tea Party governor, to a boot licking, money groveling advocate of Obamacare, in part because of Jones who worked the issue through his friend Bill Cunningham in the wake of the Senate Bill 5 debate, Boehner lost directly to Obama as a comfortable fat cat Washington insider caving on the government shutdown and presenting to the nation Obamacare, and Jones lost to Lakota, who blew him off with their open extortion tactic of not supporting Jones’ recommendation, and decided to not entertain the idea of hiring police for building security until they twisted more money out of the community with a tax increase.  So it comes as no surprise that Jones has come out in support of the Lakota levy.  In the past Sheriff Jones’ police officers watched openly the theft of many thousands of dollars of No Lakota Levy campaign signs, and did nothing about it.  After all, the police and teachers are basically all government union brothers and sisters, so they have each other’s back.

But there was a Letter to the Editor in this week’s Today’s Pulse which took the opposite position of Sheriff Jones regarding the Lakota levy and pointed out the game superintendent Mantia is really playing, which ultimately defeated Jones.  Jones drew a hard-line in the sand about security at Lakota, similar to Obama’s hard line with Syria, only to have Mantia ignore it in much the way that Obama’s was ignored.  In the end, it was Jones who ended up eating out of Mantia’s hand ignoring the obvious ploy of extortion which is revealed to anybody paying attention.  The letter writer below did notice.

Law enforcement people told the school district that seven additional security people are needed to protect Lakota from a tragedy like Newtown. Lakota has given no indication of taking action on this recommendation and is delaying hiring pending passage of the November levy. The cost for this added security is $350K per year.

At a special July 8th school board meeting that focused on putting the levy on the ballot, I spoke to the board and Dr. Mantia about the need to immediately take action on hiring the recommended seven people.  Stating that the student’s safety is a number one priority, Dr. Mantia said it was also essential to balance the budget.  When a school board member questioned her if there was a plan on how to proceed with the hiring, the superintendent did not answer his question.

There are two elements of increasing the security of Lakota’s facilities – changes to the building’s physical structure and a visible presence of security personnel. Common knowledge that someone may be present to stop a dangerous intruder is a very effective way to deter violence on Lakota’s campus. The potential of a counterforce presence can actually be more potent than other security measures like cameras or limited access entrances.

On May 29th, the board summarily approved $534K to blacktop parking lots and tennis courts.  At the September 30th meeting, the district had an excess of 90-days available operating cash (the district spends on average about $400K a day), and it projects that it will have almost $1.4 million in surplus for the 2013-2014 year.

The Lakota school board is pregnant with the knowledge that steps need to be and can be immediately taken to improve student’s safety. Delaying hiring security people so that it is dependent on the levy’s passage borders on extortion.

John Halase

West Chester

During the last school board meeting there was a presentation about Facilities and Security.  Some schools have their main office in the middle of the building instead of adjacent to the entry doors.  The plan is to convert classrooms by the doors to offices and force pass throughs to the office.  Lakota indicated that they already have cameras looking at the doors and buzzer access after students’ morning entry.  One school has a curved front, and they said that it would take extra work.  That is the scope of the $6.3M Mantia said would be spent on security.  What Lakota is really doing is taking extra class-rooms which are emptying because there are fewer students with the declining enrollment and hiding that fact from the public by using them for “pass throughs” for so-called security purposes—which is laughable.  When the subject of that declining enrollment was brought up, Mantia was sensitive to it.  She argued that the district cut 150 teachers and they are short-staffed.  (based on what?)  She said there isn’t a direct correlation between the number of students and the number of teachers needed.  This too is laughable.  Mantia as a former teacher obviously has been brain-washed to believe the old union talking points—when questioned about anything—blame it on being short-staffed.   This is how Lakota ended up with so many redundant administration positions.  CLICK THE LINK BELOW TO SEE SOME OF THEM.

http://www.nolakotalevy.com/salaries.html

During the last decade when enrollment was going up, Lakota argued they needed more money because of the imposition that more students placed upon their employment base.  Now that the opposite is true, Mantia wishes to convince the tax payers that there is little to no correlation between the numbers of employees and student enrollment numbers.  Really?  That is like McDonald’s declaring that if they only had two customers a day, they’d need a full staff of 25 workers to cover those two people who might come in to order coffee.  It is preposterous.  Mantia is obviously all wrong about her thinking.   Instead of all her proposals for the over $13 million she wants to raise with this new tax increase, she should be looking at massive lay-offs and consolidating some of the empty buildings instead of dumping more money into buildings that only have unneeded employees in them and no students.

Now it is clear why Sheriff Jones is supporting the Lakota levy even though they snubbed him publically.  As a fellow government worker, he is in the same boat as Mantia.  If he were to ever lose support for his budget from the Butler County tax base, he’s facing many of the problems that Lakota is now.  So he really doesn’t have a choice but to support the same system which he also benefits from.  Mantia knew it at the start of his campaign, just like Obama knew that Boehner would cave once the debt ceiling hit.  Republicans do not have the will to cut up the government credit card and Obama played his hand with that knowledge on the government shut down debate.  Mantia knew that Jones did not have the political capital to stand apart from Lakota, so she played her hand against him, and still earned his endorsement.  Her token concession of turning some empty classrooms into “security” zones was enough to let Jones come away from his position of hiring live police officers for increased security, and earn his support.

The people who support the Lakota levy are the people who directly receive benefit from the service directly or indirectly.  Sheriff Jones receives benefit indirectly because so long as people support government schools, they are likely to continue supporting government police officers.  The other Lakota levy supporters like Mantia are voting in favor of their pay checks.  There isn’t anywhere else a person like her would make a quarter million dollars.  If she wasn’t in government she’d be lucky to make $9 dollars an hour in the private sector as her skills would be worthless as a token administrator.  Mantia also protects the teaching profession which gave her that looting opportunity so that future generations of teachers can do as she has and build high paying careers by playing the kind of games she did with Sheriff Jones, raking in a bounty that would make Caribbean pirates shy with bragging rights.  The other supporters are parents who want the services of a private education without having to actually pay for it, so they support the tax increase to feel like good parents when they are really just too busy to do the job themselves and expect the community to fund it for them.  They all have in common a love of social looting to serve their purposes.  They all support each other’s efforts even when they put on a show of discontent.  In the end, they are one and the same, part of the massive blob called collective government statists intent on the eradication of capitalism, and the new dawn of a socialist day where they will be exempt from the massive middle class and function as one of the social elite of public service.

CLICK HERE TO SEE WHAT JONES SAID AND LEARN HOW LAKOTA DISMISSED HIM.  IT WOULD APPEAR THAT LAKOTA ONLY CARES ABOUT SCHOOL SAFETY IF THE LEVY PASSES.  IF IT DOES, THEN JONES GETS HIS ARMED SECURITY……………………….MAYBE.  LOL

Why To Vote For Mark Welch and Matt King: A debate for West Chester Trustee

Over this past week, there were a couple of public debates allowing the current West Chester trustees Catherine Stoker and Lee Wong to defend their records against the challengers Mark Welch and Matt King.  I support Mark and Matt and you dear reader will too after watching the video shown below.  Clearly Mark and Matt are much more competent as potential trustees.  Just listen to them.  There really isn’t any question.

Listening and watching Wong and Stoker defending their records,  Stoker came across as a career, 20 year politician.  Her comments were political, polished, and non-committal, the way long time politicians always are.  Wong on the other hand declared that the reason he should be trustee again was because “people like bike paths, they like to talk to one another, and he rides his bicycle all over West Chester.”  Serious!  He must have said it 7 times during the debate.  The most telling aspects of the debate are the things that Stoker and Wong took credit for and the things they said were out of their control.  A couple of those things were: “zoning regulations were voted on by citizens.”  We are not supposed to blame the trustees who had final approval of these regulations, because it was the will of the people. “The land use plan was put together by a citizens committee.”  In other words, voters cannot blame trustees who had final approval of the plan, because a citizen committee of ass kissing Agenda 21 loving statists created it under their subtle nudges.  “Zoning review committee is manned by citizens.”—whom Trustees appointed and Trustees will have final approval of their work. “The citizens voted for the aggregation program(s)”—(so trustees who voted for approval are off the hook).  See how it works?  Listen carefully to the way the current trustees try to shrug off any responsibility for anything that might be unpleasant.

Stoker blamed the withholding of legal expenses from inclusion in the trustee agenda on staff not being able to pay a vendor, a vendor billing at the current rate of $290 per hour that could not be contacted for longer terms, a vendor whose billings were included in over half a million dollars of legal expenses to the township during 2012?  In defending the Wong and Stoker exclusion of Fiscal Officer from executive sessions, Stoker cast doubt on the integrity of the Fiscal Officer without cause.  But yet, as trustees, Wong and Stoker claim all the credit for the successful operations of the township and the growth of commerce and industry.  No credit to the developers, investors, merchants, donors, etc.—the visionaries who really made it work—or the staff and employees of the township who helped enable it.  Bet you didn’t know that video was so exciting did you?  Watch it again with “educated eyes.”

If this debate doesn’t clear things up about who the people are behind the campaign signs, then it needs to be watched until it does—because the differences are incredibly obvious.  The decision is basically does West Chester want a couple of long-term career politicians who have little idea how to run the community, or do they want a couple of highly competent businessmen who have more than two cents to apply to the various problems of community management.

For me it is easy to decide.  I wouldn’t vote for Wong because he’s certainly not competent.  He is a nice enough guy, but there is more to running a community’s finances than riding a bicycle around West Chester.  And with Stoker, she is too politically savy to actually do the will of the people.  She is a typical politician, and that alone makes her unqualified.  The only real answer is Welch and King.  Those two guys represent opportunity.  The other two represent stagnation, complacency, and a slide backwards toward the business cycle of so many Cincinnati communities that have had their day in the sun, then fallen to decline due to corrosive politicians.

The Panic Driven Lakota Looter: Helping the pro levy side find some help

If you are a Frito eating, couch sitting, pill popping insecure parent who is seeking a free education for your children off the backs of residents in the Lakota school district I want to help you with an announcement.  The school principals working with the various PTO groups at Lakota are frustrated that there aren’t more social degenerates to join their ranks in this election of 2013.  They are concerned that there doesn’t seem to be the same “passion” for helping to pass a devastating tax increase this time around.  At least that is the word from within their pro levy ranks.  Outwardly, it is business as usual—apply socialist leaning tax increases to brainwash children into mass collectivism—and lie, cheat and steal to accomplish the task.

So just to make this election a little more balanced, I want to help those enemies of intelligence by distributing their advertisement for a Pro Levy rally that is being organized by the Endeavor PTO group—the type of people I called “latte sipping prostitutes” during the last election.  CLICK HERE TO READ THAT ENQUIRER ARTICLE AND REVIEW MY OPINION OF THESE PEOPLE.  They are at it again, but this time fewer people seem interested in helping the school principals dodge Ohio state law working in favor of tax increases with brain-dead, neurotic levy supporters as their foot soldiers of social destruction.  So for those who are stupid enough to vote for a school levy and secretly seek a baby sitter to watch their children because they are too lazy to care for them personally, below is an event you will want to attend, to be around like-minded pro tax supporters.  As for the rest, here is a glimpse into the mind of social menaces disguised as smiling community patriots.  In reality most of them are simply latte sipping prostitutes with asses………………..well you know the rest.

Hello Endeavor Staff and PTO!

Thank you for sharing your personal emails with me so I can efficiently communicate levy campaign information. (A couple of the staff emails I received are not valid, so please communicate this information with your colleagues.  Jen and Kym, please forward to everyone you can!)  We have two important events coming up as we head into the home stretch of the campaign and we need our Endeavor community to help us make them successful!

October 26th Caravan and Rally!

 

Join us at Endeavor at 9:00 am for this fun event to generate excitement and encourage early voting!

We will dress up our cars and caravan through the community on our way to Plains where we will meet up with the rest of LAKOTA  at 10:00 am for a brief rally, celebration and prizes.  We will have decorating supplies on hand along with donuts and coffee to fuel our spirits.  (Feel free to bring your own decorations as well!  You can print “For Lakota” logos at forlakota.com.)

Bring your friends, bring your neighbors and LET’S GET OUT THE VOTE!!!!

Please let me know if you are able to join us so I know how many supplies to purchase.  Let’s make Endeavor’s caravan the most impressive!!!

October 30th Canvassing!

 

I PROMISE it won’t be as bad as it sounds!  Endeavor already filled a phone banking session back in September and made HUNDREDS of calls in less than 2 hours – and everyone came out alive!  🙂  Now it’s time to fill a canvassing session to get people out to VOTE!  As the people who participated in the phone banking can tell you, we are not trying to convince “no” voters to change their minds.  We are simply getting information out and reminding people of the importance of actually casting their ballots.  The levy committee will provide training, including a script and materials. We will travel in teams of 2 so you don’t have to go alone!

We are sharing a session with Heritage on Wednesday, October 30th.  Endeavor is committed to filling 20 spots (10 teams of 2).  We will all meet at Heritage at 4:30 pm for training and then head out from there.  Missy (Heritage’s principal) and I will provide pizza for our awesome volunteers before we hit the pavement.   Please consider volunteering about 3 hours on this evening to help get the “yes” votes to the polls!  Research proves that door to door communication is absolutely critical to winning any campaign.

Please let me know if you are able to support this effort so I can let the committee know how many routes to prepare.  Thanks!

If you cannot participate on the 30th, but would like to help another day, please follow the link below to Sign-Up Genius.

Thanks so much!  Please let me know if you have any questions!

As it can be seen, the principals of several Lakota schools are behind this effort and there are scripts, phone banks and all out attempts to turn NO voters into Yes voters.  They are supposedly doing this on their own time, to avoid violating Ohio law which states that school employees cannot support levy activity. It doesn’t matter to anybody that many of these plans, emails and phone calls do occur during work hours.  But when it comes to what a lot of these school principals get paid at Lakota, a few weekends of time volunteered is worth it to them. Look at what they get paid, seen on the No Lakota Levy website.

http://www.nolakotalevy.com/salaries.html

It becomes clear quickly what’s in it for the school administrators at Lakota.  It’s all about money, and they need enough mindless supporters to jump on board and support their financial scam.  Unfortunately, because of the efforts over the years of educating the public, more people than ever know what is behind these types of games.  It gives me great pride to see that No Lakota Levy has evolved into such a respectable organization that provides so much wonderful content.  It has come a long way from a website that my daughter and I put together on a shoe string budget.  Some of the smartest minds of the Lakota business community are behind the website, and it shows.  I am very proud and happy to share a community with those people as they have taken No Lakota Levy to new levels of competency.

Without groups like No Lakota Levy, there is no defense against the kind of school sponsored activities described in the literature above from the PTO group.  No Lakota Levy today is a kinder, gentler version of a tax fighting organization than when I was with them, but that doesn’t reduce their effectiveness.  I feel more passionately over the wrong doings that occur within the education industry than most people do, so my attitude over public education has reflected that social position.  I obviously do not like supporters and employees of public education for philosophical reasons that I see detrimental to the human race—and capitalism.  The current members of No Lakota Levy are good community minded people who simply wish the facts of the education nightmare currently going on in the Lakota school district be known, and on their new website, they let the facts tell the whole story without a lot of emotion to drive the temperament—which is very good.

The reason for this upcoming Lakota levy, for the proposed impact on businesses, residents barely scraping by, and all the tax payers about to be rampaged with 20% increases in their health care costs due to Obamacare, is to support the salary structure shown above, from the No Lakota Levy website.  The reason that the principals of the schools mentioned are hard at work building a network of levy supporting zombies to do their dirty ground work of tax increase promotion is to protect their wage structure with perceived value hidden behind layers of emotion.  They are protecting their jobs which pay outrageously high benefits for being simply glorified baby sitters, and they need the levy to continue their corrosive pillaging of the Lakota community.

The reason the numbers of people volunteering for these PTO rally events is declining is because more people than ever know why Lakota is financially strapped.  It’s not for lack of money, in the same way that Washington politicians just approved a debt ceiling increase over $17 trillion while tax payers are paying more money to the government than at any point in American history, the government is still spending more money than they are taking in—Lakota plans to spend more money than they take in because of poor management choices—which become glaringly clear when the salary structure is shown.

I’m normally not a person who calls other people names.  I actually do listen to people who think differently than I do.  However, I have learned with these levy supporters that they are fanatically ignorant to the facts of reality and they truly wish to hurt other people with their misguided world view—and neurotic sentiments.  I find them despicable, detrimental to the furtherance of human evolution, and woefully destructive as thinking sentient beings.  I have grown to despise them for their desire to harm entire communities with high taxes based on no fact driven analysis which stays with every single property owner of Liberty and West Chester Townships for most of their lives.  The short-sightedness of the levy supporter angers me greatly.

But even I have a little compassion for them when they try to host a rally, and nobody wants to show up because everyone thinks they are idiots.  They’ll have the usual levy fanatics—the kind of people who still think they are high school cheerleaders and feel so guilty over what crappy parents they are, that they think by passing a levy with all their volunteerism they can show their kids how much they care.  But a vast majority of the people will sit on the sidelines and resent the bastions of greed which the pro levy supporters at Lakota represent because they understand the end game.  The sum of the entire ordeal is in the extraordinary wages the school employees make, and their willingness to use children as emotional hostages in order to secure even more money for themselves at the expense of everyone.  For that reason I think these levy supporters are the most disgusting people I have ever met, and deserve to feel the pain of reality with a NO vote on November 5th.
