i read a book the other day about public schools in our nation  an indictment of our prevailing caste system  it semes so many things i've taken for granted others cant access at all  i ditched computer class while others had no books  i learned to hate my halls, there's holes in walls in schools right in my town  serving the rich, keeping the lower classes down  what do i mean by this statement?  it seems only too clear with your english class in a bathroom  how well do you think you'd fare?  i read of schools so overcrowded no room could be saved  not auditoriums, cafeterias or closet space.  a school's income is determined by property tax  and how much money can you get from poor mexican and black families trapped in slums  poor kids need the most attention but since they're untaxable they get none  and because the system sucks when the kids grow up  they'll have to send their kids back into the system that fucked them  it's a cycle that for years has not been broken  there's a name for this it's social reproduction  and we maintain this caste system by letting them enforce it  we're all flowers growing in a garbage can"  the teachers tell their kids but how can a flower grow when the sunlight's blocked by the lid?  disribute property tax more fairly at least that's a start  cuz little flowers can't grow in the darkness they need everything we've got.
