[Peace-discuss] FW: Join Other VFI Members for Stimulus Webcast

[LAURIE SOLOMON]

Interesting how Microsoft and probably others in the high tech arena are
making plans on how to hijack the stimulus money earmarked for education and
redirect it to the white collar corporate IT consultants and network
administrators, who will use it to their own personal benefit and to the
benefit of the corporations they serve or purchase  software and hardware
from rather than using it to get digital equipment and training for
elementary and high school students, schools, or  the poor who are in need
of training in high tech skills.
