December 1, 1955.....Rosa Parks refused to give up her seat on a bus, which officially marked the beginning of a civil rights movement, that brought segregation into the nation's spotlight. Today, we feel segregation between the wealthy and the poor! Today's chapter that is being written has been brought about by the segregation between the most educated and those who barely make it by in school, whom are turned down for school loans! Some are even forced to choose between going to school OR working 40+ hours a week to help feed themselves and their immediate families!
A lot of this segregation was introduced into our society by the wealthy, educated politicians currently in office. When the economy took a nose dive in 2008, many U.S. Citizens leaned more towards the lottery system for a chance to win it BIG! These politicians, currently in office, took advantage of this "influx" in lottery purchases and started taking from the percentage, set aside for education, and started using for other means! The result: Less money for education which in turn provided more security for the politicians currently serving today! Now they don't feel threatened because you need a required "education" level to hold certain political offices!
EVERY U.S. CITIZEN, at least 18 years of age that has NOT been convicted of a felony, has the power to vote! PLEASE do your research this year on each person running for an office! CHECK THEIR STATS!!!
"WE THE PEOPLE" need to start making a positive difference! BECAUSE it's obvious our "LEADERS" are NOT making a positive difference!!!
In short, SHAPE UP OR SHIP OUT!!!
