Kafka Was Right



reading this makes my head ache. i think i will keep my children at home. they will get a much better education from me, and i don't have to deal with any of this shit. the bureaucratic nightmare of public education is just a symptom of a much deeper problem. public schools often do not seek to produce critical and analytical thinkers. they are often in the business of producing docile, rule-abiding bean counters.

leave the lawyers alone. first, kill all the bureaucrats, for they are the reason lawyers exist. then kill all the robber barons, for they are the reason bureaucrats exist. after that, genetically modify racists so that they become what they hate whenever they start hating vigorously. you don't need to do that for the homophobes because we know they're all secretly queer anyway. genetically modify all sexist pigs so that they actually morph into swine whenever they start behaving sexually piggish. after that, reverse the roles of all abusive prison guards and their victims. next, force all people who lust for nuclear war to sign a contract agreeing to move to the cities they want to nuke prior to the declaration of nuclear war.

force all free market ideologues to support their families for at least five years on the minimum wage before they are allowed to publish or legislate anything related to federal and state fiscal and labor policies. any cheating will start the clock over. this includes but is not limited to the following: use of any prior savings, the use of perks extended by former employers, and the use of any financial support from friends and family such as cash gifts, free housing, and loaned or gifted vehicles. also prohibited is using one's prior academic and professional accomplishments to secure employment. for all intents and puposes, at the beginning of the five year degree program for The Right To Pontificate On Economic Matters, participants are high school graduates with an employment history composed of menial jobs. it's all about them bootstraps, folks.
