    i doubt karl has ever listened to or read klein either. as she takes a few of the same positions that he does especially against global neoliberalism, state institutionalism, clintonism, and crony corporatists, its strange how karl seemingly attacks every single critic of crony corporatism by calling them communists

    i agreed with your post until your final sentence karl, my wednesday this week will be spent listening to naomi klein as she pays our campus a visit

    You've raised an interesting point about the role of education. While we might think of education as being about the three r's (reading, writing, arithmetic), a predominant focus in the Enlightenment era was building character. This ideal repeats at certain intervals throughout history.

    https://www.edx.org/ I know many of you do feel dumbed down because of your lack of current participation in higher learnings found on american and worldwide campuses. and while edx may not offer the traditional partay social engagements, you would encounter on campus, still, there is great opportunity for networking and gaining enlightenment, and you wont have feel like a troglodyte any longer Cheers!! and shake all of that dumbiness off yourself, it is Spring, a fine one too, so why not enter a class soon?! last summer i took two classes at The Open University of UK, one at Yale, nice experiences so nice, this summer i press on towards my first grad level degree. about 1/3 of the way there. there will be more to follow edit>> and a current thread of ours here on TDB "the origins of man" is one of the current edx offerings!! look sharp on a dao bums thread! study up was gonna play a trogggs song.....
