Introduction
Libertarianism is a political ideology.  It has 7 principles.  There are 3 main types of libertarians; some libertarians are conservative and others are liberal.  There were many famous libertarians.  There are several libertarian organizations.  There are many criticisms of libertarianism.  

History
Lao Tzu was the first libertarian.  In the 17th century, some English people developed libertarian ideas.  In the 18th century,  liberal ideas became popular in North America and Europe.  Liberals created the Whigs party, which opposed the royal family.  John Locke had a big influence on libertarianism.

7 Principles
Self-Ownership: Everyone owns their own body.

Non-Aggression: "Don't start nothing, won't be nothing."  Don't attack people, but if they attack you, destroy them.

Decentralization: Citizens should have more power and government should have less.

Free Exchange: People should be able to exchange goods, services, and ideas with each other without government interference.

Individualism: Every person is responsible 4 themselves.  Everyone has equal rights, no matter what group they are in.

Property Rights: Everyone has rights to their own property.

Voluntarism: People have the freedom to join any organization they want; if they don't want to join any they shouldn't be coerced into joining.

3 Main Types
Lite Libertarian: They believe in libertarian principles, but don't want a major change in government structure.

Minarchist: They want the federal to only be over national defense and legal matters.

Anarcho-Capitalist: They feel society would be better off without any government.

Left and Right Libertarianism
Left Libertarianism: They are against public property rights.  They feel natural resources should be shared with everyone in the community.  They believe in private property rights.  Some of them want a weak central government.  Some of them don't want one at all.  

Conservative Libertarianism- They believe people obligated to follow their contractual agreements.  They like free markets and property rights; they are religious and they want lassez-faire capitalism.

Famous Libertarians
Ayn Rand: She was a speaker and author.  She created her own philosophy called objectivism.  She was never a libertarian.  But her ideas gave birth to a form of libertarianism.

Independent Institute: They publish libertarian books.

Lew Rockwell: They promote ideas of free markets, anarchy, and they are against war.

ISB: They lobby the government to create certain policies.

There are many other libertarian organizations.

Criticisms of Libertarianism
Free market capitalism is not the best economy.  Economies that had government involvement have been more successful than economies without it.  Tax cuts don't improve the economy. Most companies keep the surplus $ for themselves.  Norway has the highest standard of living and it's a socialist country.  The U.S. government helps the rich economically, but not the poor and the middle class.  

Conclusion
Libertarianism has a rich history.  It has 7 important concepts.  Libertarianism has 3 main types.  Some libertarians are conservative, others are liberal.  There are many famous libertarians and organizations.  There are major criticisms of libertarianism.  I am a Libertarian!!!!!!!!!!!!

Master P (Percy Robert Miller) is one of my favorite people!  He goes by the name P. Miller now.  He became a salesman at 16.  He was in college 4 two years.  He created a label called No Limit after he became a rapper.  He also opened a record store which had the same name.  He was an NBA player for a spell.  He is an author, actor, filmmaker, philanthropist, and investor.  He has a big family.

Early Days
He was born in 1970.  His parents divorced when he was young. He was raised by his pops with the rest of his siblings.  They were very poor, so "the refrigerator stayed empty."  When he was a senior in high school he sold cell phones throughout the neighborhood.  He went to the University of Houston and played for the basketball team there.  He dropped out when he was a freshman.  Then he went to Merritt Junior College in California.  He studied business there for 2 years.  His grandfather died and he got a $10,000 from a malpractice settlement.  He used the $ to open a record store called No Limit.  Then he created his own record label called No Limit.  His label became very famous in the late 90's.  Snoop Dogg joined the label after he left Death Row.

He played for the Charlotte Hornets in 1999. Over 15,000 people came to see him play.  He was fired because he was a gangsta rapper.  He may have played one game with the Toronto Raptors.  He was good at playing basketball, but he wasn't NBA material.  He lacked the fundamentals.  If he had the fundamentals he would have been a great NBA player.

United States Educational System

Introduction
Education has a long history in the U.S.  The Prussian educational system had a big impact on the U.S. educational system.  The U.S. has public, private, charter and home schools.  Affirmative Action was created to remedy systemic racism in education and employment.  There are several problems in the U.S. educational system.

History
The first school in what became the U.S. was started in 1635.  It was in Boston, Massachusetts.  It is the first public school in the U.S.  This school was the prototype of high schools.  Other public schools were created in New England.  They were replaced by private schools in 1780's.

In Virginia, Jesuits created Catholic schools in 1600's.  Rich folk got private tutors to teach their kids.  They also sent their kids to England & Scotland to get educated.  George Thorpe created a school 4 Americans. He got killed 1622.  Schools were segregated in the South until 1954.  Democrats caused African-American schools to be underfunded during segregation.

There is a Catholic girl school in New Orleans.  It is called Ursuline Academy.  It was created in 1727.  It was the first schools to teach underprivileged women.

Americans were forced into European schools so they could forget themselves.

During Reconstruction, African-American colleges were created.  Hampton University was the most important African-American college during this time.  It's my home by the sea.  Booker T. Washington graduated from Hampton University.  After that, he created Tuskegee University.

The rest is history.

Prussian Influence
Prussia created a 3 tier educational system.  Upper-class children got the best education.  Middle-class children got a good education.  Lower class got an education that caused them to become obedient workers and soldiers.  PhDs were created in Prussia.  European men from the U.S. went to Prussia and got PhDs. They like its educational system, so they brought it back to the U.S.

Different Types of School
Home: Rural areas were the first place in the U.S. to have home schools.  Parents teach their kids at home for religious reasons; and because public schools are failing to give their children an adequate education. I believe home schools are better than public and private.  This is because parents care more about their child education than anyone else.

Public: Public schools consist of elementary, middle, high schools.  Taxes pay for public education.  School broads govern public schools.  The Department of Education regulates public schools.  The second public school in the U.S. was in Hampton, Virginia in 1638.

Private: Most private schools are Catholic.  These types of school don't receive funding from the government.  Their funding comes from tuition.  The federal government doesn't regulate private schools so much.  Catholic private schools have a theology class.  It teaches students about Christianity.  It was one of my favorite classes in high school.

Charter: Some of these schools are for-profit and others are non-profit.  For-profit charter schools get their money from tuition.  They are big bizzness.  I went to a 4-profit charter high school and had a ball.  Non-profit charter schools get donations from individuals and organizations.  Charter schools aren't controlled by the government as much as public school.

Affirmative Action
Affirmative Action was created to remedy disenfranchisement of African Americans in education and employment.  It was created in 1964.  Minorities get are more likely to get hired and get into college because of Affirmative Action.  Affirmative Action is race and gender-based.  It should be based on a person socio-economic status.  If someone has a high socio-economic status they have no need of Affirmative Action, regardless of race or gender.

Problems in U.S. Educational System
There are many problems in U.S. schools.  Teachers should be paid more.  If they were, they would take teaching more seriously.  Bloom's Taxonomy should be applied to public schools.  This will help students learn with their mind, emotions, and their hands.  Some schools are violent and have metal detectors.  The teachers should find a way to de-escalate conflicts, so metal detectors are taken out of school.  Schools shouldn't be a war zone.  They should be a place students learn by having fun. There should be a lot of learning games in the classroom 4 lower grades.  There should be fewer games for higher grades.  Lessons should be taught in a way that relates to the children's lives.  Then they will be more interested.  Many students come from dysfunctional homes, which impairs their ability to learn.  Some parents need help raising their children.  Schools should help these parents.        

Conclusion
The U.S. educational system is over 300 years old.  It was negatively impacted by the Prussian educational system.  The U.S. has home, public, private, and charter schools.  Affirmative Action was created to help African Americans; now it helps almost everybody!  Schools in the U.S. have problems.  The solution to these problems is higher pay for teachers, Bloom's Taxonomy, conflict resolution, more games and fun, lessons tailored to the lives of students, and parenting classes.

Jesuit Colleges

Introduction
Jesuits are the ninjas of the Catholic Church.  There job is to remove any organization, people, or person that opposes the will of the Pope or the Superior General.  The current Pope is a Jesuit. Anywho they're highly intelligent and created a bunch of universities.  I will explain 5 them in great detail.  There are over 20 Jesuit colleges in the U.S.

Georgetown University
It was founded in 1789 in Washington D.C.  This university was created by Jesuits in Maryland. The Jesuits want to raise $ for GU and other schools in 1835; so they sold their 272 slaves to plantations in the South.  During the U.S. Civil War, most of the students joined the Union Army or the Confederate Army.  The school colors became blue and gray.  Blue was the color of the Union uniforms.  Gray was the color of Confederate uniforms.  Patrick Francis Healy became the 29th president of GU.  His mother was African and his father was Irish.  He founded the Law Department. About 20,000 students are enrolled in GU. There are 48 majors 4 undergraduates.  A student can get a master's in most of the majors after they complete their undergraduate training.  GU has a campus in Qatar.              

St. Louis University
It was founded in 1818 by a bishop.  My people were able to go to this university in 1944. This university had many sororities and fraternities.  A lot of politicians went to this university. There are many undergraduate and graduate programs.  St. Louis University has a campus in Madrid, Spain.

Spring Hill College
It was founded in 1830 by a bishop named Michael Portier.  He taught theology at Spring Hill College for the first 6 years.  Some of the Jesuits from this college were chaplains 4 the Confederate Army.  Children of Central American and Cuban leaders became students during the Reconstruction. My people were allowed to attend SHC in 1954.  117 students from Loyola University were accepted to SHC during Hurricane Katrina.  SHC has campuses in other states and in Bologna, Italy.

Xavier University
It was founded in 1831 in Cincinnati, Ohio.  Over 6,000 students go to Xavier.  It is named after St. Francis Xavier.  There are many sports in XU.  Football, basketball, baseball, and swimming are the most popular sports.  XU has great alumni.  Henry Heimlich was a professor there for 12 years.  He invented the Heimlich Maneuver. Several NFL players and politicians went to XU.

Loyola University New Orleans
It was founded in 1912.  It has 5,000 students.  This university was named after the city St. Ignatius lived in.  St. Ignatius, Peter Faber, and St. Xavier founded the Jesuits.  St. Ignatius was the first Superior General of the Society of Jesus.  My people were allowed to attend this university in 1952. The president of Xavier went to this university. LUNO has great undergraduate programs.  It is almost as good as my school. Hampton University!!!!!!!  Go Pirates!!!!!!!!!!!  

Conclusion
Jesuits make the best Catholic schools because they are the smartest Catholic priests. If you go to Catholic university it should be a Jesuit one.  I went to a high called Loyola. It would have been sweet if it wasn't all male.  Schools shouldn't only have one gender of students.  Because that promotes homosexuality.

Islamic Educational History

Introduction
Mohammad said seeking knowledge is mandatory for all Muslims.   The first Islamic schools were in mosques.  Maktabs (elementary schools) were created in the 10th century.  They were schools attached to mosques.  Secondary schooling is known as a madrasa (place of learning).  Women played a big role in Islamic Education.  Law and medical schools were popular in Islamic civilization.  There were several important Islamic universities.  Islamic educational systems were influenced by older civilizations. Islamic education had a big impact on western education.

In the Beginning
Students in mosques were taught the Qur'an, Hadith, sports, combat, horseback riding, and several other subjects.  Sometimes they would memorize verses in the Qur'an.  Most Muslim students studied in Maktabs. This form of schooling caused the Muslim World to have the highest literacy rate during the Middle Ages.

Madrasa
Many subjects were taught at in madrasas.  They were math, alchemy, geography, astronomy, philosophy, magic, astrology, logic, music, medicine, history, Arabic, grammar, calligraphy, and politics.   The government of the Ottoman Empire recruited Persian scholars to teach in their madrasas. Madrasas were created all over the Muslim World.  They still exist today!  Each madrasa had its own curriculum.  Some were more religious.  Others were more secular.

Women Role in Islamic Education
Women attended madrasas.  They were also teachers in madrasas.  The first madrasa was created by a woman.  A wife of a caliph funded infrastructure and education.  A wife of the Ottoman Sultan endowed hospitals, public baths, soup kitchens, and madrasas.  Many educational and religious buildings & monuments were endowed by women.

Law Schools
There were Sunni and Shia law schools.  There is an Ibadi school of law as well.  There are several Sunni schools of law.  They exist throughout the Sunni Muslim World.  Shia law schools are more intellectual and hierarchical compared to Sunni schools.  In the Ibadi law school, the Qur'an and hadith are supreme.

Medical History
An Arab man named Al-Harith traveled to Persia and studied in a medical school called Jundisabur. There were hospitals in Persia called bimaristan.  He brought his knowledge back to Arabia.  He was Muhammad cousin.

A Persian doctor translated a medical book from Syriac to Arabic during the Umayyad dynasty. During the Abbasid dynasty, 2 families were experts on medicine.  They were the Bakhtishu family and the Masaway family.  The Bakhtishu family came from Persia to help heal the caliph.

Books were written by Muslim doctors that were later translated into Latin.  They were used in European medical schools for centuries.  The Comprehensive Book on Medicine was created by Al-Razi disciples. They compiled his writings together after he died.  The book gave the Greek, Syrian, Persian, Arab, and Indian views on different diseases.  His opinions of the diseases were in the book as well.  They were based on his observations.

There were hospitals for different diseases in the Islamic World.  In mental hospitals, patients were kept in cells so they wouldn't hurt people.  There were hospitals 4 people with leprosy. Doctors quarantined the patients so no one else would get leprosy.  There were hospitals for people on the Hajj and for traders. There were hospitals 4 prisoners. There were traveling hospitals 4 villagers because they lived far away from the cities.

Sometimes medical students were taught in the hospitals.  It is known as Medical Educational Assemblies. Students would often debate each other. Anatonomy. physiology and pathology were taught in these schools.

Islamic Universities
There was a huge library in Baghdad called the House of Wisdom.  It may have also been a university. An Abundance of scholars came there and they exchanged ideas. Many scientific texts in various languages were translated into Arabic in HoW.  The House of Wisdom was created during the Islamic Golden Age.  It was destroyed in 1258 by the Mongols.

The Moors created several universities in Spain.  Check out Moorish Legacy.

The House of Knowledge was created in Cairo.  It was a library and university.  It was created in 1004.  It had many volumes of books.  The founder of the Druze religion studied at the House of Knowledge.  When the Fatimids dynasty fell the library was looted and it fell into disarray.                                        

There were 3 mosques & madrasas in Timbuktu.  They were Sankore, Djinguereber, and Sidi Yahya. A lot of people came to Timbuktu to learn.  A lot of texts was written there.  Timbuktu was created by a Tuareg leader.  It later became part of the Mali Empire and then Songhai Empire.  

Influences on Islamic Education
Arabic numerals came from the Hindus.  This lead to the creation of higher mathematics.  Arabs learned papermaking from the Chinese.  Islamic medicine and philosophy are largely based on knowledge discovered by ancient Greeks. Several Muslim medical students studied at a Persian medical school.  Islamic astronomy was heavily influenced by Indian astronomy.    

Islamic influence on Western Education
Muslims brought Hindu numerals to Europe, which gave Europeans the ability to do higher mathematics. B4 Europeans had Hindu numerals they used Roman numerals. They were unable to do higher mathematics until they learned the Hindu numerals. They introduced ancient Greek texts to Europe.  They brought papermaking to Europe and the scientific method.  The Islamic Golden Age sparked the European Renaissance.
                                                                        
Conclusion
Muslims created primary and secondary schooling.  Women played a big role in Islamic education. There were Islamic law and medical schools.  There were great Islamic universities.  Islamic education was influenced by older civilizations and it had a positive effect on Western education. Islamic education was great!
