The Perpetual Education Fund

Education is the great stepping stone that leads humans to fulfillment, happiness, and success. It provides one with the necessary abilities to be self-sufficient. In order to help all americans to be self-sufficient and to eliminate the lower class or poverty level in our society, we need to allow for all americans to recieve an education.

In order to accomplish this we will be teaming up with The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints. To many this may seem like an unwise or even unconstitutional alliance...so let me explain. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latterday Saints has set up an initative called the Perpetual Education Fund. This is a fund which anyone can donate to. From it they give educational loans. Typically these go to members of their church who are between the ages of 18 and 30, single or married, living a responsible life style, but who are in select under privilaged areas who other wise could not obtain education. Typically they will be studying something that can be completed in 1 to 2 years, many times it is vocational training. However, all these are limitations that had to be set because of the limitation of funds. If they are inudated...even overwhelmed with donations, these stipulations can be expanded to meet the needs of all americans, even all people. These loans have no interest while they are attending school and have a very low interest afterwards, typically around 3%. You might ask how is this any better than other government educational loans. The beauty of this program is that it is run on a volunteer basis, there is no overhead, no administrative costs...every penny put into the fund, stays in the fund. Even the interest goes 100% back into the fund to be given as more loans. The fund always gets bigger. As this fund grows, it will eventually become so big that the interest will be reduced to nothing as there will be enough there to cover everyones education. Now everyone can have the opportunity to learn and grow and create for themselves new opportunities.

We aren't taxing, or forcing anyone to donate to this fund. But we are pleading with all of you, as the american family, on behalf of our families, our children, and their children...lets make this happen. Everyone please donate as much as you can, as soon as you can, and as often as you can and lets educate our people and stregnthen our society as a whole.

As a part of this I am issuing a new mandate to all the colleges, universities, academies, and centers for learning...henceforth for every student in every major or educational path, the learning institution must have a career center that has a connection to an available job. There will no longer be 1000 graduates all fighting for 1 job...or no job. If there is no corresponding job, the learning institution must list it as recreational learning, and not list it as a major leading to a degree. This way, those who are studying for recreation only, may still take the classes they wish to, but those who believe there will be a job waiting for them at the end of the tunnel, have a better chance at getting one.

Again, everyone please donate as much as you can, as soon as you can, and as often as you can to the Perpetual Education Fund and lets educate our people and stregnthen our society as a whole.

Thank you for your continued support,

Your King

The Most Basic Unit of Society

As I hear of all the turmoil in the world, whether it be financial markets, lack of health care, lack of human dignity, wars, politics, or simple disagreements among people...I typically hear people asking, "Why doesn't the government fix this?" There are many different contributing units in society such as government, business, and religion among others. But none of these will ever give us what we need to fix the problems of society. In order to fix society, we need to fix the most basic element or unit of that society, which is the family. A strong family unit is the most basic unit of society, without which, no other unit of society be it government, business, or religion, can flourish.

To that end I am issuing this new mandate: Here to fore, the people of America will be limited to a work week consisting of five, six hour days. This will provide two hours more each day for families to interact with one another. It will lessen the income of everyone so there will be less to spend, but again, that will give us the opportunity to get back to some of the family activities where we are actually interacting, bonding, and enjoying one another's company. This should also foster an improvement in priorities and help us all remember what is really most important in life. Hopefully more basic morals and values can be instilled in us as a people. Families will be stregnthened, which will stregnthen individuals, which will give us better leaders in government, business, and religion, and thus our society will be stregnthened.

As a side benefit, more job positions will be made available to complete the tasks that would have been accomplished in the work hours we will be losing. This drop in unemployment will again allow for more families to provide for themselves and become stronger family units.


Happy familying,

The King
