Though it’s gotten better since then, living under Burma’s (Myanmar) military junta is a nightmare and this documentary by an undercover journalist group shows just how much oppression the people have to go through

Ah, my bad. I forgot he already linked to it. Sorry bout that Gero bro’!
But yeah, I think awareness about our school sytem is the most important issue in America today so , meh, at least hopefully at least one lurker sees the link, watches it, and helps him see the problem.
Sorry to sound ignorant (well I am ignorant) but how do you guys present your links with text like in the above posts?
Saw this the other day:
Argh, here’s the link:
TEDxGlasgow - Pauline Dixon - How Private Schools Are Serving the Poorest
In that whole array of buttons above the textbox where you type…in the second row, the second group from the right, there is a button with a globe and a chainlink…that is the hyperlink button. Type what you want to show up in the box, then highlight the part you want to be linked, then click that button and paste the full URL you want the text to link to in there.
… Wow. Just… wow.
Obviously the intended effect behind this new holiday and the proclamation behind it is to foster the belief that questioning, let alone protesting, “the system” and the status quo is disloyal - in the sense of treasonous. So much for freedom of speech, eh?
The powers that be are getting really desperate now.
So he’s asking people to fly the flag or say the pledge on one day, big deal.
Come on, man. This is clearly another salvo in the government’s war against ideological opposition.
The reality the media isn’t telling you…
It’s easy to forget that there are people who can be manipulated by things like this (e.g. children). Most public schools require children to stand during the pledge of allegiance and usually make them recite it too. Loyalty day will have no effect most people who frequent this forum, but it might effect young children. The government is trying to get people like that to be loyal. They don’t care to try to make us loyal; we’re a lost cause to them. Children and other easily manipulated people aren’t.

The amount of people actually expressing disappointment in Obama foreign policy and likening it to Bush foreign policy is kinda promising…
This is one of the best articles I’ve read on Mises Daily in a while- I hope Dr. Rajsic writes often.
Why do you think I bumped this thread?
But since you mentioned it here, I figure I’ll give this one a bump too…
I saw that before I posted. I asked myself … Why? I’ll, uh, form a theory and come back later.
In the before-later time, here’s another good article I read on Reddit- Skousen catches a lot of rookie mistakes passed around in the MSM as “economics.” Good stuff.
Replace self-proclaimed “left-libertarian” Roderick Long with Lew Rockwell, and I’d probably use that poster.
I was just telling someone on FB that Roderick Long is the only one up there I have problem with being up there, but outside of the sphere of Austrians/an-caps everyone would have a problem with Hoppe and Rothbard (and Molyneux as well I suppose.) Overall I’m surprised they went “anarchist without adjectives” on this and put together varying schools of thought. I’d suggest having Mencken up there, and even that caricature of Stirner.
Doug Casey would be nice too.
