Kindergarten (The real reason)


"Overall, children who spend time in full-day kindergarten programs are more likely than children who spend time in half-day kindergarten programs to devote time every day to reading, mathematics, and social studies." - BULLSHIT!!

In our state, North Dakota (not the State Of Les), we recently passed a law making kindergarten a full day for the kids.

Now this has been passed along to the citizens that it's better for the kids, and that it gets them learning more at a younger age, and promotes good learning habits, and all kinds of stuff. And the parents just eat this shit up! "YEAH ... GREAT IDEA! I care so much about My child that I think full day kindergarten is wonderful!" What they're REALLY saying is "YIPPIE ... more free time for Me NOT to be a parent!!!" People are so good at bullshitting themselves!

You wanna know the REAL reason that kids are now in kindergarten full time? So parents don't have to take off work for 1/2 a day to raise their kids!!! Sorry .. but it's true! Kindergarten is full time because 'working parents' are behind the scenes making damn sure we don't go back to half days again. Kinda like the same reason the oil industry has made damn sure cars run on gas for the last 50 years even though better technology was always out there.

Need more proof? How about breakfast at school! Now it's not even the job of parents to feed their kids in the morning! Amazing. I hate to tell you a "When I was a kid" story but .... When I was a kid, we ate breakfast at home from a home cooked meal by this person called 'Mommy'. She would take us to kindergarten for a couple hours, then pick us up and we would go home where Mommy and I would spend the afternoon together.

TRY passing that story as truth today! HA!

Now I'm not stating that I have proof that 1/2 days are better, or that full days are more productive. I'm simply stating that the REASON for kids going all day is NOT because of the kids ... it's because of the worthless parents who make these decisions. It's all about the ADULTS ... not the kids.

Just another classic example of how in our generation, we will do anything possible to get rid of the kids that we are supposed to be raising. Weather it be putting them in school as much as possible and as early as possible, having them in daycare, or finding a sitter during the evening. It's amazing kids even know who their parents are anymore. I extend My middle finger to the typical parent out there today ... may you all become sterile. PRICKS!!

Money saving tip #9


Here is yet another great money saving tip, this time it's for saving money on those damn money sucking things called kids.

If you have kids, chances are you've been to a local carnival or fun night of some sort. Now at those fun nights they sell tickets, and those tickets usually cost 25 or 50 cents apiece. Then you go around and your kids try and throw a ball in a bucket, or catch a rubber duck with a net, or stand in line at a cake walk. Well as time goes on these tickets add up, especially if you have more than one kid. And in the end you've spent 20 or 30 bucks on tickets and in return you have a bunch of plastic, made in china, nickel toys that will eventually be laying around the house getting caught in the vacuum beater bar next time you clean.

Well I just happened to be in Walmart the other day doing My exclusive, high end lifestyle shopping and I walked down the isle and seen these rolls of tickets in the stationary section. A thousand tickets for $3.88. Now that's a hell-of-a-deal. Those 1000 tickets are worth 500 bucks at 50 cents a ticket. And who the hell is gonna catch you?? This is a little carnival put on by volunteer mothers at the ticket booth, and a bunch of high school kids running the games. Not very high tech. All you have to do is make sure you have the right color tickets and your in business.

And if you want to take it to another level, you could stand out in the parking lot of your local school and make a killing on selling these tickets at discount prices. Meanwhile your kids are inside having a blast for FREE!! It's another win-win situation.

And for those of you who think it's rude to take advantage of the school fundraiser. UP YOURS!!!!! The whole damn school is nothing but a fundraiser!!! Every time I turn around they're selling books, and t-shirts, and cookies, and nuts, and candy bars. JESUS H. CHRIST ... I somehow thought the purpose of school was to LEARN ... not to become salesmen!!! And the last time I looked at My property taxes, a HUGE chunk of it was for the school system. If I recall, it was about $1000.00 of MY taxes went to the school, and yet these greedy bastards always want more!!! Now if 1000 people are giving 1000 bucks in taxes each and every year ... I'd say you have enough money to put some chalk on the blackboard. What the hell do you think you are? A CHURCH??

So go out .. buy some tickets, and start taking back some of the money that YOU DESERVE!! Amen!
