A couple of "Tales from the End Times", from today's Democracy Now
broadcast. Around the Globe, Fascism is on the rise. As it gains in
numbers it also becomes more open and aggressive. What will it take
to convince people that we cannot coexist?
The other story featured here should alarm all of us. For a long time
we have pretended to have a universal public education system. But it
has always been Class Structured. The "better families" received the
better schooling. But until recently we pretended that any child
could study hard and become fabulously successful whether from humble
means or from wealth. But today, with Betsy DeVos as Secretary of
Education, the pretense is dropped. Not only is Betsy selling off our
public education, but she is encouraging enslavement of those children
who must rely on student loans to even obtain the lower tier degrees.
