Corporate producers of food want you to believe there is no difference between what they create, grow, or fatten up, and super size, versus what is happening naturally when an animal is on its own. Here are some photos that show there are differences. Often there is color and size differences. People are being super-sized by the chemicals added to their food. Buy and eat organic! Don’t be misled by those who want your money, but will let your health fall apart.

In almost all public schools across America we are suffering from grade inflation or changing grades. Often, teachers find out after the fact that administrators have passed their failing students on, or the teachers are ordered to inflate grades to maintain employment. It is dirty secret. A large portion of American students are learning absolutely nothing, except the latest new game on their cell phone.

Schools are also stating that more students than ever are prepared for college. If we are passing them all on, how are they more prepared? 57% of college freshmen not prepared for college because they have been passed along. http://news.yahoo.com/blogs/sideshow/sat-scores-continue-decline–57-percent-of-incoming-freshmen-not-ready-for-college-001618038.html

We enroll a huge amount of students to college so that colleges collect the first year freshmen tuition from the impoverished students scholarships only to fail them out. It keeps money rolling, professors working, and a colleges in business. It makes high schools look great, because they claim,”We are sending students to college more than ever.”

Students are allowed to tell teachers things like,”Fuck you bitch! I don’t have to do shit.”, and often these students are warehoused, disrupting, making the teachers day miserable, and other students miserable, only so the school can collect federal dollars to keep a school open. These same students are often given scholarships. I know you are asking yourself,”How?” I ask myself the same question.

America’s education system is in deep trouble because it is plagued by corrupt people who are lying. This should be on the front of every newspaper in American along with the evening news. Many of the leaders are over-paid so they will stay quiet about the truth.

Here are a few examples, but if you research on your own, you will see there are thousands of examples. It’s like a modern standard.

Wings useless for flight

Waddling across the cold ice

Distressed – A Haiku

Their heart’s hurt and bleed

Their mind’s are tortured daily

They don’t give a shit

2013 Albert Moyer, Jr.

I  read in the news this morning that a family member stabbed five people to death, four being children, and in another news story a man shot a family to death, and killed their dogs. This poem was written and inspired based on the countless distressed people I meet daily, and what they feel inside. It is a sad fact, but our society in America is becoming more and more distressed everyday.  Unfortunately, it is all because of bad parenting, lack of values, and Romans 3:18 “There is no fear of God before their eyes.” When you have nothing to fear, and care about nothing, it is very easy to act out, and this is what we see in America. Millions with no hope or fear acting out due to being distressed.

 

One of my many favorites, and some of the best things in the world to eat are pancakes with fresh Maple syrup, and blackberries. They are also great to photograph. Here is a macro photo of some delicious pancakes I made for breakfast.

I have no idea what flowers these are, but they caught my eye, along with that tiny white flower sprouting right from the magenta flowers.
