TRS: It's Elementary, My Dear Watson
What if our kids were taught these important lessons in elementary school and beyond? Can it be anything other than an attack on our survival? Abuse to our children? Real honest conformity to hyper-nationalism and austerity??? What if our children were taught that our government was there to serve the needs of the people and was self-funded. That the nation issues currency out of thin air by sovereign edit from Congress? What if they understood the Gold Standard ended in 1972 with Richard Nixon ending the Bretton Woods Accord? What if they understood neoliberalism and decided the future should be one of collective victories vs wealth accumulation from the elite class traitors in society and the bourgeoisie?? The capitalist and investor class? Imagine if we didn't train our kids to pass down the worst of capitalist predation?
