2. Arne (& Obama) Look. This Is The Future Here In the U.S.
If you keep up with the corporatization of education you have embarked on.

11. Always attacked the "educated"
We see it here in the US, verbal attacks against Obama for being an educated man. These same attacks were made against again Kennedy and his advisers. In Ireland and the US it's a financial attacks against those who want to be educated.

15. as per my link to the bbc
Edited on Thu Nov-04-10 05:14 PM by reggie the dog
fees would be raised from 1500 euros a year to 2500 euros a year. We dont like paying for higher education here in europe, we kind of think it should be free like high school;)

14. I always thought New Zealand and Ireland had a lot of sheep
it would appear though, that the U.S. has cornered the market. I wonder if we we'll ever push back hard against the corporate rule...
