10 Signs that Capitalism is Screwing Up Your Education System

Here's something funny from Facts for Working People, and I assume the unemployed as well.

1. Dean of school shows up on campus

2. Financial Aid office installs bullet proof glass

3. Kindergartners make picketsigns and walk out

4. Teachers bring tip-jars to parent/teacher meeting

5. McDonalds opens up charter schools as part of “McEducation” campaign. Dollar menus introduced

6. Math teacher fired, re-hired as school fundraiser

7. Downloadable i-teachers replace unionized human ones

8. Elementary schools widen Pledge of Allegiance to include loyalty to the Principal, Privatization and the Capitalist system

9. “Military opt-out” allows Middle School kids to enlist directly into the Army

10. Stock Market hired to trade on children’s actual “Futures”

(OK, so it's not a laugh riot, but, a good try for a socialist rag.)
