Quote: Just throwing more money at the schools is not the answer. get rid of the unions, get rid of the standardized testing. Let the teachers that can teach, teach. And fire the rest.
Well Soren, like I said way up there at the beginning and like Ron pretty much reiterated under it...tell me...can we ALSO FIRE the friggin' PARENTS who just send their little darlings off to public schools daily and who apparently expect said public schools to raise them for them, TOO???
(...oh, and I see nobody around here wants to challenge my observation about our country's long standing tradition of being anti-intellectual, eh?!...well, at least THAT'S good, 'cause it appears at least a few folks around here recognize the TRUTH in THAT statement!!!!)
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
