I'm a private tutor who teaches youngsters how to think. I ride around all over NYC and Nassau County teaching youngsters how to study and excel in school. Fortunately, I'm in with the Asian community, especially the Chinese (Cantonese primarily, but some Mandarin, Taiwanese and Fujianese) who go for my style and whose parents like the results (high grades). I have a very big responsibility because these kids confide in me and view me as their friend. Mind you, in contrast to most Americans, the Chinese have the highest respect for its teachers. I empower youngsters to think for themselves and to become self-reliant and independent. I charge a nice fee for this. But what is learned lasts a lifetime and results in the highest possible peace of mind and happiness. I ride around in all the different neighborhoods and see what is going on first hand. I'm outraged (though I should be used to it by now) by all the BS that the Government and Wall Street passes off for fact. The disconnect between the government and its citizens is tremendous. With the exception of those who receive the handouts, I don't know anyone who respects either party and the direction this country is headed. There is no leadership. Almost everyone in Government is on the take.
