Life is like a clogged toilet. It's full of crap until you do something about it.
I don't speak Karate!
No. These techniques are pedantic and shameless ways to feign better performance out of kids who are unable to compete in school without their attraction to free stuff holding them in place.

I wouldn't want my taxpayer money going to this -blam!-. This is unacceptable, and another terrible example of how people are learning to depend on the government to take care of them for life, and not take care of themselves. I won't say I'm guilt free in this thinking, but I know for a fact that the government isn't guilt free either. At this point, the administration is trying to put people in its dependence instead of off its dependence.
