Wizards of Money Part 19: The Education Sweepstakes
by Smithy

Part Summary: In this, the nineteenth edition of the Wizards of Money, we are going to take a look at the funding of education and the rise of the slot machine. With more federal dollars being diverted to overseas conquests and the US states experiencing a severe budget crisis, some things have to suffer. And one of these somethings happens to be education. “Never mind”, say some states, let’s just get those lotto balls rolling and slot machines ringing.

Series Summary: The Wizards of Money is an educational series that questions the validity of the global monetary system. Listen and discover amazing facts about the world-wide debt system we’ve all been enslaved by, and how this system produces economic disparity and the massive poverty conditions in which most people find themselves today.
