The gates and Dells...Chicago is just the beginning. The gates and Dells are also on this same mission. They want state parks. Not sure as to actual reason really but it could be for the rare minerals in rare earth. Whatever their reason, it's not the reason they claim it to be. Rick Perry is pushing it hard in Texas. I mean just sine the first of the year, the ball has been rolling full steam ahead. Except here in Texas, instead of closing the schools they just let the charters take the current already built schools. It started as a trial run in Austin at one elementary and one high school. In just the last couple of weeks, Rick Parry appointed the Austin superintendent as head of the states charter schools.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12599081959856560892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14707730.post-89311300806353532662013-01-31T23:09:48.819-05:002013-01-31T23:09:48.819-05:00this is the rest...So I was curious of Norquist an...this is the rest...So I was curious of Norquist and found his various websites. One for getting rid of all unions. The one for no new taxes. There's a new one out this week that's for his next mission of ending the EPA. Norquist and Republicans have asked Obama to sell government property and the president said no. Corporations want it.

Well, there are some big urban areas that Walmart wants to do it in and cant do to lack of property. New York City is one. As well as Chicago. And Chicago is closing schools as we speak. Every high school's property is just about the right size for Walmart. This is why the Waltons are giving money to anyone who wants to launch a charterAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12599081959856560892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14707730.post-18248661651608113962013-01-31T23:00:40.214-05:002013-01-31T23:00:40.214-05:00Instead of disproving the charters, I believe it&#...Instead of disproving the charters, I believe it's time to call it what it really is and bring the issue to the public. The best way to put it is by first telling you the reason I came to this conclusion. It all started with my curiosity of Grover Norquist. I found it terrifying that, THAT little man held so much power. And not just the power over Washington either. The media doesn't even bring it up. Long story short. I went to Norquists site, atr.org...that lead me to his other aganda...property rights. And he is on a mission to take property from our government.
