EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Will You Survive The Coming Financial Crash

After more than two decades of research, first working as a licensed investment banker,
and ten years of owning my own business, I have come to the sad conclusion that real-
world math is not taught in public school, because ignorant people are far easier to
take advantage of, than those who are educated and savvy about such matters. On
pg. 14 of her book The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America, former senior policy advisor
in the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI) during Ronald Reagan's
first term as President, Charlotte Thomson Iserbyt, states that on December 28, 1928, a
plan to dumb-down American students through what was called new math was discussed
by people who had attended a meeting of the Progressive Education Association. This
meeting was chaired by a Dr. Ziegler of the Education Committee of the Council on
Foreign Relations, a group that through their actions seeks to destroy the national
sovereignty of the United States, to unite all existing countries under what they call their
own New World Order of global fascist government.
Dr. Ziegler is quoted in Iserbyt's book as having said the following to a Mr. O. A. Nelson:
"Nelson, wake up! That is what we want, a math that the pupils cannot apply to life
situations when they get out of school!"
As Mrs. Iserbyt further explains on pg. 15 of her book, Mr. O. A. Nelson was an assistant
principal at Wilson High School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, as well as having also worked
at Johnson High School in St. Paul, Minnesota. It took until 1952 for this new math to be
instituted throughout the United States public education system. This coincidental twenty-
three year period exists as a perfect example of how slowly the globalist program of
gradualism (two steps forward, one step backward) proceeds, thus avoiding the detection
from all but the most astute observers.
Mr. O. A. Nelson further stated:
"That math was not introduced until much later, as those present [in 1928] thought it was
too radical a change. A milder course by Dr. Breckner was substituted, but it was also
worthless, as far as understanding math was concerned. The radical change was
introduced in 1952. It was the one [form of new math] we are using now. So, if pupils
come out of high school now, not knowing any math, don't blame them. The results are
supposed to be worthless."
In the preface of her book, The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America (pgs. xvii-xviii),
Iserbyt defines the onslaught upon the minds of our children as a new and different type
of war. While she does not use the specific term, I contend that this new type of war
belongs under the general heading of Information Wars. The following bullet-points from
Iserbyt's book represent the primary methodology that has been used against our children
in the fighting of this Info War:
·
One fought using psychological methods.
·
A one-hundred year war.
·
A different, more deadly war than any other in which our country has been involved.
·
A war about which the average American hasn't the foggiest idea.
