    It's so weird looking back on Jon Stewart's bits now, watching his mannerisms and cadence and expressions, and realizing how much he affected my sense of humor and the way I tell jokes and express sarcasm. Guess I got more than just an interest in politics from watching him so much as a kid. Thanks, Jon. For everything.

    Waitwaitwaitwait. Teachers who changed student grades in order to, at worst, keep their unappreciated and underpaid jobs so they could make ends meet at the end of the month, and at best, to help failing students, went to jail... While people linked to a massive global economical crisis walked away... Huh.

      You're talking on behalf of the 20% ( if that ) of teachers in the US. But do we really want to get into the other 80% ( maybe more ) that are nothing more than pieces of shit that waste everyone's time and suck up taxpayer money? While I'm all for teachers being paid more, if we're going to do that then becoming a teacher has to require having an IQ above 20, ACTUALLY be evaluated by the students as well as other faculty so the students' voices can be heard and weed through the shitty teachers, and have the entire "education" system be reevaluated since its nothing more than a burning pile of dogshit on taxpayers' front doorstep that they continuously throw money into.

      +ThatFalloutGod IQ is worthless to measure intelligence. You will never get enough money the school would need. You can´t properly educate 30 people in one class with one person. All you can do is show the kids what they have to learn, not how they can learn it. There is no time to explain to 30 people or even 20. People are individuals and everyone has different problems in school. There is simply no time for everyone kid. So we have standardized bullshit. If you want to learn leave school and use the internet. Self motivated learning is the best anyway.

    • @ThatFalloutGod
      @ThatFalloutGod 9 ปีที่แล้ว +5

      MC Mark Markson First off, I was using IQ as a joke because most teachers nowadays are worthless pieces of shit. Secondly, learning by yourself isn't the best way to learn, that's been proven wrong on multiple occasions. And it's not impossible for good teachers to teach 20 kids the shit they need to know to pass the class ( granted, I agree smaller classes are by far better than bigger, and I'd be all for a limit on how many are in a class, like 20 ), it's just when you get little shits or bad teachers when problems arise. The problem ( which I could go very much into depth about all the problems about America's "education" system, but I'm not unless you want me to ) is that everyone is assbackwards on their "solution" to the problem.

    As great as this segment is, it doesn't even touch on the problems with the current education testing system that actually led to teachers cheating. Tying students test scores with teacher wages and job security, does not work, it has never worked, and it will never work. There will always be kids who know the standardized tests don't affect anything for them, and fill out the bubbles randomly, or try to make designs, etc. Hell half my class used to do it in middle school, tying a teachers livelihood to that is cruel.

The only one I ever took serious was my high school exit exam. Now that I know some teachers needed this to get paid I feel fucked up. I mean I passed my test but had I actually applied myself more they could've gotten paid more. That's cold.

      @@malcolmboy21 that's wrong to do. The test scores system is rigged against the teachers as well. Some opaque arbitrary fucking algorithm from a company decides the projected score that a student should get, and if they get below that the teachers get paid less.

    Wealth = privilege. The word privilege itself is very pertinent here: privi like privy, as in private; and lege like legislation or legal, as in law. Privi lege means private law. That is what we can say that we mean when we talk about privilege, someone who is different from the rest of us before the law. As we can see from this video the banksters have a privi lege over the teachers, they are different before the law. Lying and cheating and racketeering will put a teacher behind bars but not a bankster because of the privilege, the private law, that is afforded to those who make a lot of money.

    I worked for an honest mortgage company in the 1990s, and it was tough - because there were competitors who would inflate appraisals and lie about the clients to get a loan made, and we would not. Also, we would not lend more than 100% of appraised value and rarely more than 80%, but our competitors would loan up to 120% of a fake appraisal. We looked like the bad guys very often, because our competitors would loan maybe $50,000 while we could only loan $5,000 or $10,000, or nothing. That is because we might get a potential customer with a $60,000 loan on a $70,000 house and at best, we could loan against the $10,000 equity, but a competitor might falsely appraise the place at $100,000 and loan up to 120% of that making $60,000 possible. And the customer (being a bit dumb) did not know who to trust, but they wanted the money.

    What do people mean when they say "Wall Street"? Because, in reality, the traders on the floor who dealt in CMOs (collateralized mortgage obligations) which consist of a large number of mortgages grouped together and securitized to be sold to investors who are looking for a stream of income based on mortgage payments, are not the ones to blame. The companies who bought the risky "sub-prime" mortgage CMOs were taking a risk, much like investors who trade in below investment grade bonds or distressed debt. Were they doing something illegal or unethical? No, just risky. It wouldn't have occurred to them that a substantial portion of the mortgages underlying these obligations would be defaulted on, mainly due to unethical and illegal lending practices. So, it boils down to mortgage brokers, lenders and their associated companies. Call a spade a spade and blame the mortgage lenders, not "Wall Street".

    To put this into greater context the teaching incentive system was proven to not only led to ethical issues, especially teaching and financial gymnastics, it also led to teacher refusing to teaching normally when admin/appraisers showed up, refuse to share lesson plans with up-and-coming teachers, let alone new teachers, and this was in the 90's. That state chose to keep that system for a reason.

      1. the % of americans on some sort of welfare stood at 35.4%. Subtract 36.5 (the welfare folks plus the literal 1% of the rich), and you end up with 63.4%. A clear majority of people aren't on welfare, and didn't all go protest. This isn't as simple as "lol, welfare"- you guys have a problem of apathy.
      2. The people that did protest were laughed at and looked down at by a lot of that same 63%- usually middle aged folks, and were told to stop trying to change wall street, and go find a job.
      As a non-american, I just can't understand logic like this. How do you guys even solve a single problem over there if all you do is talk nonsense not supported by fact, and trying to make everything some conservative/liberal shitfest?
      Also, seeing as the US is all for regime change via violent revolutions elsewhere in the world, it's funny how, when it comes to the US itself, no one, neither public nor government wants that to happen.
