Some of my students wouldn't give a second thought to put a gun to your head for a pair of NIKE shoes, while others are ones that would inspire you to believe there really IS hope for the future. The state of Nevada, as well as the federal government, has cheated these youth's dreams & opportunities by crony capitalism, bankster corruption, and a promoted welfare state mentality that programs them to believe there are only two choices: crime or food stamps....instead of working to develop their own sense of self worth to be independent. Given a chance, these kids could change the world - even though some of them are juniors and seniors in high school with the reading level of a 3rd grader, they can still learn to see the symbiotic relationship between fish and plants, and learn skills to work with both of the kingdoms to produce food for themselves and others. I'd rather see them grow their own food than breaking into your home to steal yours when a disaster comes, wouldn't you...?
