Urban Farming: A Massive Joke & A Revitalization Scam

This is the latest scam being buzzed about from central planning Keynesians today. This has to be the most idiotic, BS joke of a plan I have ever heard. Idiotic plans like this is THE reason I left the pathetic Democrat Party in 2003. This joke-of-a-scam is seasonal at best. There is NO long-term economic development component to this, either. This is why you should never trust central planners OR fiscal conservatives to have control over the economy. I'll point this out in one sentence:

Central Planning = LEFT WING economic favortism
Fiscal Conservatism = RIGHT WING economic favortism

There's another reason I won't trust this joke-of-a-scam gimmick is because of their lack of denouncement from the Food & Drug Administration. As most know, the Food & Drug Administration is responsible for millions & millions of lives thanks to their surpression of natrual medicine. Where's their denouncement of the FDA? It's nowhere to be found. Most of these urban farmer supporters would have NO knowledge where to gather natural crops so the food they sell (from the crops) will not benefit the customer's health. If anything, it could re-introduce that customer to health-realted problems.

Here's the MOST RIDICULOUS layer of this argument: Tax credits from guess who? The pathetic, bankrupt FEDERAL GOVERNMENT! Tax credits are nothing more than temporary handouts for industries (remember Cash for Clunkers & TARP, anyone?) Providing tax credits to a seasonal scam at best will produce nothing but a bigger deficit, and more unhealthy human beings (thanks to the lack of knowledge of crops most urban farming supporters do NOT have). If you live in Detroit, Chicago, New York City, Washington DC, Miami, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Cleveland, Cincinnati, Dallas, Houston, Phoenix, Boston, Milwaukee, Minneapolis and you want a REAL LONG-TERM economic solution for your city, start studying Austrian Economics, OK?

Competitive Education & a TRUE Free Market System: How Both Can Flourish In The Inner Cities Today

Hello, my name is Keith Dixon aka the Hip-Hop Libertarian. Today, I'm gonna explain why an untouched competitve education field and an untouched free market can bring TRUE liberty & freedom in the inner cities today.

First off, I'll touch on competitive education. We all hear politicians use the rhetoric about how education is the key to a successful life. The problem today is NONE of those big-city politicians really support the TRUE form of education. They all support a institutionalized monopoly and wants NO competition involved, period. This is a clear case of indoctrination, NOT education. Let's be real folks. Most unionized teachers today are NOT teachers, they're professional babysitters. The children are learning absolutely NOTHING except dependence on government in these classrooms, to put it in a bluntly honest way. Monopolized education only creates chaos and more stagnation in children's thinking. High school dropouts percentages are above 50% in most big cities today. Truancy is also on the rise as well. The REAL reason dropout rates and truancy is high is because of the stagnant nature of the cirriculum the children are FORCED to learn from. How can you fix this problem? Competitive education w/ NO monopoly. I'll explain how education can be evolved into a much better and successful outcome. Here's how:

Choices: Choices give the parents freedom to give their child maximum oppurtunities to learn as much as possible. It also gives the child a much more diverse and complete outlook on the working class world too.

Emphasis on Essense of Occupation: Anyone can apply for a high-paying job and chase the Jonses. But if that child doesn't have a natural love for that occupation, chances are they're gonna grow up depressed, unfulfilled riddled w/ debt trying to chase the Jonses.

Essence-Driven Enviroment: (For example)--I see NOTHING wrong with pairing a room of future singers, poets and rap artists in the same classroom for 5-10 years straight. If they love it, chances are they'll wanna learn it regardless of structure and then putting them in a play or at an mini concert at 8-10 yrs. old displaying their true nature and even getting "paid" for it as well.

Incentive-Driven Internships: Let's be real folks. Kids wanna get paid for what they're learning about. Creating an incentive-based internship enviroment would not only keep them "monetarily motivated", but also happy about recieving a stipend for what they LOVE to do to "wet their appetites" a bit.



In this paragraph, I'll touch on how the free market can help a inner city community explode with prosperity. The bigger the enterpreneurial spirit grows, the better for the disadvantanged and the less fortnate. The essence of a job is PRODUCTION. Human beings through their nature have the inclination or the natural desire to produce to fulfill one's physical and emotional needs. After a person produces, one becomes fulfilled for that day. The problem I have with "fiscally conservatives" is that they play favorites by giving tax cuts to conservative-favored industries and that's why TRUE free-marketeers REJECT that term overall. Most inner cities have a VERY HIGH unemployment rates--and that's simply because you have Central-Planning Keynesians in city government. Central Planning "Keynesians" believe in ONE thing and that is GOVERNMENT SPENDING. They foolishly believe that that government spending is the way to prosperity, but the opposite is quite true. For example: I saw how my new Detroit Mayor Dave Bing and the Detroit City Council approved $11M for a measly 7,000 summer jobs for the city's youth. $11M for 7,000 children for ONE summer? That's ridiculous. While if I was a Mayor in a cash-strapped city (and Detroit definitely is), I would DISMISS the ridiculous notion of a business tax and pass an ordinace of a voluntary tax to ALL businesses so they can hire WAY more than 7,000 children with NO gov't handout whatsoever--and it would last year after year and so on.....a untouched free market is the REAL way to stimulate an struggling economy, not Central-Planned "Keynesianism"!
