Hi tkc,
No not saying that at all. I think the public education system is entirely worthless for students, families and teachers. Scraping the entire thing would result in a far superior, private, efficient, cost effective education system in a few years that would be better for all involved. There is no need for government involvement whatsoever.
The public education system is a charade masquerading as an education systme. As it currently exists it is a financially unsustainable, political, employee benefit plan. Education does occur among students in the system but the system contributes little to that process.
The Obama and Emmanuel children are typical of many of our "public servants", Republican and Democrats.
They attempt to bask themselves in the noble glow of "investing" in public education but that system is for everyone else, not for their children.
I am banning myself from the other board as a symbolic protest in support of you, dig and 24601. I don't have much to offer anyway.
By the way I like reps better than the dems. I will hold my nose and do everything I can to defeat Obama but I am not a Romney fan. Gary Johnson stands no chance of winning, so Romney it is for me.
