Jayden Smith made headlines with a few controversial tweets this week. Quote:

School is the Tool to Brainwash the Youth

Education is Rebellion

If Everybody In The World Dropped Out Of School We Would Have A Much More Intelligent Society

If Newborn Babies Could Speak They Would Be The Most Intelligent Beings On Planet Earth

It was a delight to see the squawkbox squirm as they jumped at the opportunity to proclaim that it is NEVER the right thing to do to drop out of school! Should government agents force parents to send their children to school under threat of punishment?

Clearly not anti-education or anti-intelligence, but strongly anti-school, Jayden may have a point. A blogpost at DailyPaul.com shows a photo of an AP US History textbook which rewrote the second amendment to read, quote, “The people have the right to keep and bear arms in a state militia.” Is that how you read the second amendment?

The truths of life are often counter-intuitive. Sometimes the best education comes from leaving school, and sometimes lowering the speed limit results in more accidents. In a terrific 15-minute mini documentary recently released online, it is revealed that “Speed Kills” is a myth. In fact, most roads in the country would benefit from increased speed limits, where the result would statistically be more lives saved. However, speed limits remain low, despite the increased risk to drivers, in order to issue more tickets. Police are motivated by money, not driver safety.

It couldn’t be more obvious that police don’t care about safety from the way they drive. The dashcam of a police cruiser in Ohio recorded a State Trooper driving right over a couple on a motorcycle. The cop didn’t even hit the breaks before colliding into them. He’s paid by taxes, drives a taxpayer funded car which is filled with taxpayer funded fuel and he will claim that in return, his job is to keep people safe. Do you feel your tax money is being well-spent? Do you feel safer when you see a cop car behind you? Oh by the way, the couple lived, despite serious injuries, and they credit helmets with saving their lives, no thanks to The State.

A report of a Louisiana city that banned twerking with a first offense punishable up to 30 days in jail turned out to be a hoax, but a hell of a headline. Many were relieved to learn that shaking your hips is not illegal in Louisiana but were shocked to learn that dancing at the Jefferson Memorial, even silently, even badly, is still illegal.

An upcoming public offering was announced at BitcoinTalk.org. Cyprus-based LMB Holdings is raising capital to fund two new ventures: Neo and the Bee Payment Network.

Neo is a bank that will allow residents of Cyprus to seamlessly deposit, withdraw, or transfer either Bitcoin or Euros without requiring them to understand the complex technology. Each customer receives an 8-digit account number, allowing them to request payments much more easily than with Bitcoin’s 34-character public address.

Bee is a card payment network, that operates merchant accounts which credit business accounts held with Neo. You’d use it like a visa to spend from your Neo account, either in bitcoin or Euros.

The Flagship Branch and second branch are both planned to open in February 2014. Learn more from the link in these show notes.

Finally, in cannabis news, Harvard researchers showed that the active ingredient in marijuana cuts lung cancer tumor growth in half and significantly reduces the ability of the cancer to spread. The researchers say that the cannabis could be used in a targeted fashion to treat lung cancer, if only science could find a way to get cannabis into a patient’s lungs…
