Grew up in the 70s.
Every time a teacher said, "We're here to show you how to think", it was all I could do not to bust out laughing.

WHAT to think, definitely, but HOW to think? No way.

Freshly Popped, Too!
However, ya gota give creds for #1 and 17 !

. . . you "ain't workin there no more" I take it

(Ok, but you might appreciate, then, I was just cleaning out my TGIFf folder . . . )

Groooooooooooooooooan...LMAO
GOOD JOB!

I thought it amazing that they knew they were NOT Intelligent and forthrightly, complained!

You are very welcome Freedom

Thank you so much OGC!!!! You have overdone it this time. I have shared this with my brothers and many will be forwarded. Thanks so much, again, for all of your work on these!!! And a wonderful smile to my Day of Independence!!

Well you could have just been drinking water.

But then I'd have had to ask you, "Water you drinking?"

Thanks, I needed some laughs 🤪

you hit the nail
and that is why schools have been not teaching history, thinking for years and years

to kill the ability of people to THINK

The phrase "Capitalism, for all its flaws" is mistaken. Capitalism is the implementation of the right to own what one has created. Producers, those who create, are held to be evil for failing to give away what they have produced. Some people manage to overcome the desire to steal from the producers, but the thought in the mind of many is that the producers are the thieves.

The opposite of capitalism is called "eating the seed corn" in which next year's potential crops are destroyed by this years hungry mouths.

We don't have capitalism, but instead a watered-down version of it. I've not looked at it recently, but it seems that the country of Argentina might be into adoption of capitalism. President Milei has at least begun starving out the eaters if seed corn who've infested his country's government for a very long time.

I haven't seen so much CORN since i drove through Iowa ! :-)

A bit long, but WELL worth the read. Thanks for sharing it. I'm not holding my breath, however, for those indictments to be released.

Happy Independence Day, OUC! And as always, thanks for yet another great set today.

Will do. Happy Independence Day to you too!

They're all awful. I used to be a dreadful punster, grabbing hold of any overheard phrase in the middle of someone else's conversation and spouting a pun in a highly unwanted interruption.

Eventually I realized it was an illness, not unlike drinking or smoking to the annoyance of others. I stopped.

Result? I'm like that ex-smoker who cannot stand cigarette smoke. You can take your pun and shove it.

You're welcome and Happy Independence Day! Don't throw away the term "capitalism" yet, as it is used very well in many places such as Ayn Rand's "Capitalism: The Unknown Ideal".

Love the article, great job at relaying ignorance to fact (outcome). The same type of article could be written about our representatives in the government, thier rehetoric verus their actions or lack of, and their results. The history books on Trump should be required study for future generations, but we all know that the publishing industry too has all been educated by the colleges of today. What will those books really reflect?

I think I appreciate Trump for being a dooer, he does what he says and what needs to be done. I can pat myself on the back for doing that in my job. My peers used to somehow always tranfer people into my branch when they need firing. I was the only one that fired those that needed it. It eventually resulted in me rmanaging all the branches in our regional area. I had to attend a few legal depositions along the way, but I always won by having good backup documentation (facts).

I agree. Those two are no laughing matter. One is for black supremacy and the other is an absolute idiot. On second thought, they are both absolute idiots.

AOC and Crockett..........no laughing matter.......but it did make me grin.

That's a 250th birthday worthy collection!
LOVED 'EM!

Happy Indepence Day!

Thank you Commander and mccannon01. This July 4th morning me dino learned something new.
Down with Marx's "capitalism" term of which I had no idea.
Up with "free enterprise."

Love the title.

The graphic would be better with the Heads to the side and the students going through on the conveyor.

But the title. Right On!
TL;DR the rest.

Some real groaning puns, but I laughed at everyone one of them.
Happy Independence Day everyone! 🇺🇸

When in the course of human events ...
