Link for what? You don't know what was the Marshall plan? So that was it, caused some development, when went low borrow from the markets and keep borrowing, always in deficit...
No, there is no link because Marshall plan was used to rebuild Europe. It's not because of Marshall plan that socialism led to fewer inequalities... So in effect your counterargument is "no". Very compelling. Socialism only works when you steal from some one else to give to another. Even if that doesn't bother you, it should, because one there is nothing left to steal it all collapses.

University of Missouri Fires Professor Melissa Click…. Assistant Professor Melissa Click, captured on video calling for “some muscle” to remove reporters from a campus protest site, was fired Wednesday by the University of Missouri Board of Curators, Chairwoman Pam Henrickson said in a prepared statement. The board voted 4-2 in favor of termination during a closed session in Kansas City, with Henrickson and curator John Phillips opposing the move, UM System spokesman John Fougere wrote in an email Thursday. Curators David Steelman, Donald Cupps, Maurice Graham and Phil Snowden voted in favor of firing Click. Click did not respond to a message seeking comment Thursday. The board earlier voted to suspend Click with pay on Jan. 27. “The board respects Dr. Click’s right to express her views and does not base this decision on her support for students engaged in protest or their views,” Henrickson said in the prepared statement. “However, Dr. Click was not entitled to interfere with the rights of others, to confront members of law enforcement or to encourage potential physical intimidation against a student.” The statement from Henrickson cited Click’s behavior at the Homecoming parade, when she cursed at a police officer who was moving protesters out of the street, and on Nov. 9 at Concerned Student 1950’s protest site on the Carnahan Quadrangle. Her actions at the protest site, Henrickson said, “when she interfered with members of the media and students who were exercising their rights in a public space and called for intimidation against one of our students, we believe demands serious action.” http://www.columbiatribune.com/news/education/turmoil_at_mu/university-of-missouri-curators-vote-to-fire-melissa-click/article_4b0ae653-2d61-5f3f-9ede-a129d12f0fd1.html#.Vs9e6zhA67E.twitter

University of Missouri Fires Professor Melissa Click…
Absolutely glorious. Love seeing these SJW's starting to face repercussions for their bad behavior. The SJW needs to be annihilated. Like a cancer needs to be destroyed. They can feel it. They went too far. They will eat each other next, like the cancer they are.

After countless incidents and exhibits by these SJW nutcases, I've come to the conclusion that they view things from a completely inverted image of what actually happened and are truly psychotic. Society is going to implode if things keep going as they are and sadly, I don't see it getting better any time soon.
Edit: And good to see Click fired. She needs to be 5150'd and placed in her own special "safe space" so as not to harm others.

South Africa: Protesting Students Torch University Buildings… Leaving behind charred, smoldering buildings, students were ordered on Thursday to abandon a South African university, where protests have turned violent. North-West University said protesting students burned an administration building and science center at the North-West University’s campus in the city of Mahikeng (also called Mafikeng) on Wednesday night, forcing administrators to close the campus indefinitely and tell students to leave. South African President Jacob Zuma said: “No amount of anger should drive students to burn their own university and deny themselves and others education.” Student protests have erupted on college campuses across South Africa, often aimed at pressing for lower tuition, more student housing and at erasing remnants of South Africa’s racist past. In recent days, black and white students have even come to blows over the use of Afrikaans as a teaching language, an echo of the 1976 student uprising in the Soweto township south of Johannesburg against apartheid. Those bloody protests, which were put down by security forces using live ammunition at times, erupted over a rule that classes be taught in Afrikaans, considered to be the language of the white oppressor. http://www.timesfreepress.com/news/national/international/story/2016/feb/25/south-africa-protesting-students-torch-univer/351981/------------------------------------------------- Coming soon to an American campus near you...

Crack Dealer Freed Early Under Obama Plan Murders Woman, 2 Kids A convicted crack dealer who left prison early as part of the Obama administration’s mass release of federal inmates has been indicted by a grand jury for fatally stabbing his ex-girlfriend and her two kids in Columbus, Ohio. The gory crime drew national attention because the children, ages 7 and 10, were murdered to eliminate them as witnesses in the brutal massacre of their 32-year-old mother. This week a grand jury in Franklin County returned a 10-count, death-penalty indictment against the ex-con, 35-year-old Wendell Callahan, for the triple murders. Callahan broke into his ex-girlfriend’s apartment and stabbed the three victims, according to a statement issued by Franklin County Prosecutor Ron O’Brien announcing the indictment. The bloody crime scene was discovered by the woman’s current boyfriend, who subsequently engaged in a fight with Callahan before he fled. The indictment includes charges of aggravated murder with prior calculation and design and aggravated murder of victims under the age of 13. “There are multiple charges regarding the three victim deaths because there are different methods to commit the crime of murder and the Prosecutor’s Office typically charges all methods”, O’Brien stated. Callahan is in jail on $3 million bail and is scheduled to be arraigned later this week. Callahan should have been in jail when the crimes occurred, but he was released four years early because federal sentencing guidelines for crack dealers got reduced. The change is part of President Obama’s effort to reform the nation’s justice system as a way of ending racial discrimination. The initiative was technically launched back in 2010 when the president signed a measure that for the first time in decades relaxed drug-crime sentences he claimed discriminated against poor and minority offenders. This severely weakened a decades-old law enacted during the infamous crack cocaine epidemic that ravaged urban communities nationwide in the 1980s. As part of the movement the U.S. Sentencing Commission lowered maximum sentences for drug offenders and made it retroactive, leading to the early release of thousands of violent thugs like Callahan. In November the administration began releasing 6,000 drug convicts coined “non-violent” offenders whose sentences were too long under the old guidelines. News reports quickly surfaced contradicting the administration’s assessment that the newly released convicts were not violent. Among them was the leader of a multi-million dollar operation that smuggled drugs from Canada to Maine. Prosecutors refer to the 29-year-old con as a “drug kingpin” who was one of “America’s Most Wanted.” Shortly before the administration’s mass release of drug convicts, federal prosecutors warned that drug trafficking is inherently violent and therefore the phrase “non-violent drug offenders” is a misnomer. The nation’s prosecutors also cautioned that reducing prison sentences for drug offenders will weaken their ability to bring dangerous drug traffickers to justice. http://www.judicialwatch.org/blog/2016/03/crack-dealer-freed-early-under-obama-plan-murders-woman-2-kids/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter------------------------------------------------------- I would not be surprised to learn she voted for the man responsible for the early release of her killer... How ironic.

School Reportedly Creates ‘Safe Space’ for Students Hurt by ‘Tequila Party’ Offended students also received counseling. Some students wore sombreros to a tequila-themed birthday party at Bowdoin College — and others were so offended that the school had to provide them with safe spaces and counseling to deal with it. According to the school’s newspaper, the Bowdoin Orient, the e-mail invitation to the event called it “a ‘tequila’ party” and then added, “we’re not saying it’s a fiesta, but we’re also not not saying that (we’re not saying that).” This phrasing was, presumably, aiming to poke fun at the way the PC police often lose their minds over pretty much any party where tequila is present — which wound up being exactly what happened with this one. Yep. According to the Orient, one student (1) reported that some of the attendees had been wearing sombreros at the same time as they were drinking tequila at the party, and all hell broke loose. In an e-mail to National Review Online, sophomore Richard Arms states that there have been “3 school-wide emails from deans and our president, and there have been several ‘safe-space’ opportunities on campus for students to discuss how they were hurt and offended” by the party. What’s more, the General Assembly of Bowdoin Student Government issued a “Statement of Solidarity to stand by all students who were affected by the ‘tequila’ party that occurred on 20 February 2016.” http://www.nationalreview.com/article/432244/bowdoin-college-tequila-party-safe-space-students-offended

Another High Profile Campus Hate Crime Turns Out To Be A Hoax… Clinton was more than eager to believe lies, once more
The allegation set social media ablaze, sowing shock and outrage as it went: Three black students at the University at Albany had been attacked on a city bus by a group of white men who used racial slurs as other passengers and the driver sat silently by. The Jan. 30 episode, reported to the police, would draw hundreds of people to a campus rally against racism; an emotional response from the university’s president; and even the attention of Hillary Clinton, who condemned the attack on Twitter. “We are shocked, upset, but we will remain unbroken,” one of the young women who reported the assault, Asha Burwell, said at the rally, on Feb. 1. “We stand here with strength because we value our worth as black women and as human beings in general.” But only a few weeks later, what seemed to be the latest iteration of a now-familiar debate about race on campus — the protests, the anguished soul-searching, the calls for greater faculty diversity and administrative changes — has metastasized into a controversy of an even more scorching kind: the allegation, the authorities said, was a lie. Surveillance videos did not support the accounts of the young women, Ms. Burwell, Alexis Briggs and Ariel Agudio. Neither did the statements of multiple fellow passengers. Rather than being victims of a hate crime, the authorities said, the women had been “the aggressors,” hitting a 19-year-old white woman on the bus. http://mobile.nytimes.com/2016/03/02/nyregion/racism-charges-in-bus-incident-and-their-unraveling-upset-u-of-albany.html?smid=pl-share&referer=https://t.co/rI5YH0Y9b5

Judicial Watch: Documents Reveal US Army Indoctrinated Soldiers on Dangers of ‘White Privilege’‘Our society attaches privilege to being white and male and heterosexual.’(Washington, DC) – Judicial Watch announced today that it obtained documents from the United States Department of the Army revealing that in April 2015, 400 soldiers in the 67th Signal Battalion at Fort Gordon, Georgia, were subjected to a “white privilege” briefing, including a PowerPoint presentation instructing the attendees: “Our society attaches privilege to being white and male and heterosexual …” The slideshow also informed the soldiers: “Race privilege gives whites little reason to pay a lot of attention to African Americans.” It alleged that there are unspecified “powerful forces everywhere” keeping different kinds of people from being valued, accepted, and appreciated, but “we act as if it doesn’t exist.” This alleged privilege creates a “yawning divide” in income, wealth, and dignity. The material described a mythical African woman who isn’t aware that she’s black until she comes to America, encounters “white racism” and discovers the U.S. is “organized according to race.” The Department of the Army documents were obtained in response to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request seeking: Any and all materials used in an Equal Opportunity briefing provided on April 2, 2015, to the 67th Signal Battalion at Fort Gordon, Georgia, which included a discussion of “white privilege,” including but not limited to, handouts, PowerPoint presentations, audio/video tapes, course syllabi, and any recordings of the presentation itself. The response to the Judicial Watch FOIA request included the entire Equal Opportunity Training PowerPoint presentation entitled “Power and Privilege,” which states: Privilege exists when one group has something of value that is denied to others simply because of the groups they belong to, rather than because of anything they’ve done or failed to do. Privilege has become one of those loaded words we need to reclaim so that we can use it to name and illuminate the truth *** Race privilege gives whites little reason to pay a lot of attention to African Americans or to how white privilege affects them. “To be white in American [sic] means not having to think about it” [Quotation not attributed] *** Our society attaches privilege to being white and male and heterosexual regardless of your social class. *** Imagine a school or a workplace where all kinds of people feel comfortable showing up. [sic] valued, accepted, supported, appreciated, respected, belonging. [sic] Something very powerful keeps this from us. The truth of this powerful forces [sic] is everywhere, but we don’t know how to talk about it and so we act as though it doesn’t exist The trouble we’re in privileges [sic] some groups at the expense of others. It creates a yawning divide in levels of income, wealth, dignity, safety, health and quality of life. It promotes fear, suspicion, discrimination, harassment, and violence. *** Consider the “black woman” in Africa who has not experienced white racism and does not identify herself as a “black woman”. African, a woman, but not black. She only became “black” when she came to the U.S. where privilege is organized according to race, where she is assigned to a social category that bears that name and she is treated differently as a result. [Emphasis added] *** The trouble we’re in can’t be solved unless the “privileged” make the problem of privilege their problem and do something about it. The fact that it’s so easy for me and other people in dominant groups not to do this is the single most powerful barrier to change. Though news of the indoctrination incident was briefly reported in Stars and Stripes shortly after it occurred, only one of the above slides previously has been made public. Confronted with the information at the time, an Army spokesperson claimed the presentation was not officially sanctioned. Judicial Watch previously obtained Defense Department equal opportunity training materials that depict conservative organizations as “hate groups” and advise students to be aware that “many extremists will talk of individual liberties, states’ rights, and how to make the world a better place.” And last month, Judicial Watch uncovered Air Force Academy documents that show how the Academy used its “Chapel Tithes and Offering Fund” to pay for cadets to participate in worship services featuring witchcraft, “Faery Magick,” and voodoo. “Outrageous – that is the only word to describe this type of raw racist indoctrination,” said Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton. “The Obama administration undermines the morale of our military with morally repugnant ‘equal opportunity’ that makes many soldiers feel unwelcome because they are the wrong sex, race, religion or aren’t part of a politically correct group.” http://www.judicialwatch.org/press-room/press-releases/judicial-watch-documents-reveal-us-army-indoctrinated-soldiers-on-dangers-of-white-privilege/------------------------------------------------------------- This weaponized cancer has to be stop.

"SJW's...UNITE!!!" When is this madness going to end? This fool should be stripped of all rank and dishonorably discharged for being such a fool and tool. Air Force Thunderbirds Too Male, Too White, Top General "Warns"...what a crock: The Air Force’s vaunted Thunderbirds jet fighter aerobatics team is not diverse enough inside the cockpit.
Brig. Gen. Christopher M. Short, commander of the 57th Wing at Nellis Air Force Base, Nevada, said in an email last month that of 15 pilot applicants for three openings, 14 are white.
He asked fighter wing commanders to stir up more candidates who “don’t necessarily look like each of you.” He bemoaned the fact that, not only is there a lack of diversity, but the number of applicants to make the world-famous team has taken a puzzling drop in the past two years.
“I am asking for your help in finding the right pilots for next year’s Thunderbirds team,” is how Gen. Short begins his email.
“While we have several qualified candidates that many of you submitted, I am lacking the depth in talent we’ve seen in previous years and I am lacking in diversity of gender, ethnicity and [aircraft type] background,” Gen. Short wrote.
His wing commands more than 100 combat aircraft, as well as the Air Force Air Demonstration Squadron, popularly known as the Thunderbirds.
“As you look out at your wings, I’d also ask you to look at those pilots that may have the ability to reach our audiences that don’t necessarily look like each of you,” he said.
All eight current Thunderbird pilots are white males. Of the eight, six fly the demonstrations, one flies as the lead and narrator, and one is the operations officer. They fly on the team for two years, and three of the six demonstration fliers are replaced annually.
Gen. Short told the story of former Thunderbird pilot Caroline “Blaze” Jensen, the team’s right wing and No. 3 (now one of the openings), who was not only a skilled performer but also a public relations asset. The longest lines of fans seeking autographs typically formed in front of her.
“Being a female pilot allowed her to make connections none of the other pilots were able to do,” Gen. Short said. “While she brought a different gender demographic — she was also a reservist — she earned her position on the team and, like each of the team members, did an amazing job representing our AF.”
The general, himself an F-15 pilot, acknowledged that there may not be a sufficient pool of black and female pilots in the Air Force.
“I don’t expect a huge push of diverse applicants, primarily because our pool isn’t very diverse,” he wrote. “But I need talent on the team as well, and some of the 15 applicants just don’t have the depth of record of our typical competitive applicant. I am hoping you have one or two you can engage and discuss the impact they could have on our Air Force by becoming a Thunderbird pilot.”
He said he does not know why the number of applicants is shrinking.
“If you have insights on why we are not getting the number of traditional applicants, I’d love to hear,” he said. “The challenge cuts across many [aircraft types] on the team, so I think it is a reflection of a slightly tired force — but there may be other factors I’m missing. I would really appreciate your help.”
He added: “With over 200 days a year of [duty away from base] and a focus on retaining, recruiting and representing our AF, this has to be a volunteer, but I have found, and learned from others, that the reluctant volunteer often makes the best Thunderbird officer. I’d offer that those chosen for the team do very well in school and promotion competition — often they come in with the record that supports that — but we have taken very good care of those with excellent records.”
The Washington Times asked the Air Force whether Gen. Short was able to attract more applicants.
“Unfortunately, it is too early to discuss applicants or the composition of next season’s team,” said Maj. Sheila Johnston, a Nellis spokeswoman.
In a speech one year ago, Air Force Secretary Deborah Lee James ordered her service to become more diverse, especially by bringing in more women and training more female pilots.
Women make up about 20 percent of officers and 6.7 percent of pilots. Women at the midlevel ranks are leaving at twice the rate of men.
“Diversity and inclusion will help us to become more strategically agile in our Air Force,” Ms. James said.
Gen. Short’s email was posted on the blog site John Q. Public. It is run by a retired Air Force officer who fights political correctness and welcomes commentary and tips from the active force.
The blogger, who asked not to be identified, commented on Gen. Short’s email: “If there’s a concern about getting enough nominees with the experience and flying ability to build a successful team, as Short attests, the message should arguably have been a much more straightforward push for the best candidates, regardless of sex or skin color. Seems like Short’s message here is ‘send me more diverse candidates’ and also they need to be superb pilots. Shouldn’t the message read more like ‘send me your best pilots, and do your best to incorporate visible diversity.’”
Lt. Col. Christopher Karns, an Air Force spokesman at the Pentagon, said, “Ensuring a diverse Air Force is critically important. The Thunderbirds are key to recruiting. Having a diverse team can only help the Air Force reflect the nation and the people it serves.
“The Air Force is actively working to ensure we attract, recruit, develop and retain top talent. A team such as the Thunderbirds serves as global ambassadors for the Air Force. Different types of people from different backgrounds offer different perspectives and vantage points. As a force, we need to not only be operationally relevant but culturally competent,” Col. Karns said. http://m.washingtontimes.com/news/2016/mar/3/air-force-thunderbirds-prioritize-diversity-in-coc/

Mizzou Loses 1500 Students, Is Flat Broke Following Campus Protests The University of Missouri (MU) is losing about 1500 students and is facing a huge $32 million budget shortfall four months after it attracted national attention as the site of massive race-based campus protests. “I am writing to you today to confirm that we project a very significant budget shortfall due to an unexpected sharp decline in first-year enrollments and student retention this coming fall. I wish I had better news,” said MU interim chancellor Hank Foley in a Wednesday letter to school staff that was obtained by Fox Sports. According to Foley’s letter, MU will have about 1500 fewer students in fall 2016 compared to last year, an unexpected drop that is in turn causing a big dip in the school’s tuition income. http://dailycaller.com/2016/03/10/shocker-after-caving-to-protests-mizzou-has-huge-budget-gap/

YES! Die stupid universities! DIE! This is how you stop them! Reward the universities and institutions that actually respect students instead of treat them like shit!
Let the education revolution begin.

As somebody who I freely admit has a personal vendetta against compulsory education and our current system in general, I love seeing this type of thing happen to incompetent educational institutions.

There's no such thing as social justice. Or maybe in a jail. All the inmates have the same rights, they all wear the same clothes, they all eat the same food, and they all live in similar cells. I fail to understand how some people may see this as an ideal. I believe those spending their lives in jails may share my opinion.
I am not sure about jails since i don't know the culture and system there but in real life this kind of system can be maintained for the help and benefit of human beings and i am sure it is not that difficult as it is being considered. same trends and life style can make the life so easier and excellent for all.

What you are talking about is pure FANTASY that never has existed and never will exist. If it does ever exist it would be required to be in the form of totalitarianism. Be careful what you wish for.
