Our kids are about the dumbest in the civilized world. The treasonous liberals and their unions want the status quo while Republicans want freedom and vouchers. What more is there to say?

Yep, so true. Any money poured into education just goes into the union coffers. No money in the world is going to make a teacher be able to actually teach if they don't have it in them. So many kids are not graduating high school and if they do, they are too often ill prepared to face the world. Unless that world is subsidized housing, food stamps and Medicaid.
 
Wouldn't a National Recommended Reading List allow for a lot of FREEDOM?

How could Liberals object to that?

You might be interested to learn that in New York City approximately 1/3 of the High School students drop out and the vast majority of the 2/3 that do "Graduate" cannot perform even at community college level without remedial education. What pathetic, lowbrow standards are we setting for our children? This is in American's premier city, the cultural and financial center of our nation. It is not a question of money either, the city spends $18,000 per student.

In Renaissance Florence, Lorenzo Medici set up an educational system that spent generously on scholars and books (under $18,000 per pupil) and produced the greatest artist of the period; Il Magnifico set a standard for excellence and in return we got Michelangelo. In America, we set up a state run Third World educational system that intellectually abuses children, makes them give up, breaks them, fails to teach them and in return we get wards of the state and loyal Democrat Party voters. Our education system is a form of pedophilia where our kids are abused on a daily basis. In the inner city parents cry to let the children to attend Charter school and be given a chance for a full and rewarding life. In response, our educational system tries to cut the exits.

It has to end, the educational system must be transformed and reformed. We have to stop the intellectual abuse of our kids at the hands of a state run educational system.

they would make the list mandatory and it would be a list of books THEY deem worthy of children to learn from. So I don't see them objecting, rather hijacking for a white wash.
 
Our Progressive run educational system needs to totally reformed and exposed to the crushing realignment of the free market

Why don't we use the technology to make the educational system obsolete. It is mostly a matter of finding what material is worth the time it takes to read. You have to ignore the teachers and find stuff yourself but if I had gotten good recommendations I would have used them. I wish I had known about The Economist magazine when I was in high school.

"Simplified" education for the right wing is "simply" another name for "Sunday School".
 
Every high profile conservative speaker has been the victim of assault on a college campus at one time. What does that tell you about the left? The left is more interested in propaganda than education.

^Most of the nation’s worst performing schools are in states and places were unions are weakest.

About Those Milwaukee Vouchers | ThinkProgress
^Milwaukee students who take vouchers and go to private schools score anywhere from 10-30% lower on standardized tests.

Public Schools Outperform Private Schools in Math Instruction
^ILL researchers have found that public school students outscore private score students in math because public schools have more certified teachers, and curriculum that de-emphasized learning by rote methods.

The Milwaukee Voucher Failure | ThinkProgress
^Vouchers fail in Milwaukee

Vouchers in Arizona lead to corruption; Vouchers completely fail.
Vouchers lead to tax fraud, and voucher money goes to enriching CEO's

Your first sentence says it all and unions are a non-factor.

Worst part is they flat don't care (kids).

I know kids that would choose cell phones over the lives o their families.

We have raised selfish consuming monsters that feel all is owed them.

Teachers' unions try to protect teachers' rights, they don't breed and birth babies.

And you can't fix stupid, union or no...

The job of schools is to fix stupid! Did you see "Waiting for Superman"
where ghetto parents were begging and crying to get their kids into good schools! A good school is a Republican one that takes responsibility for the outcome, not one that blames the kids or the parents for the failure of their institution.

to be fair we must recognize too that a liberal entitlement culture produces horrible students. I knew a woman who taught kindergarten in the South Bronx. She said kids right off the boat from Bangladesh who had grown up with no clothes, english, or electricity to speak of made better students than the indigenous ghetto liberal kids.

Charter Schools aren't "Republican" schools, and they have nothing to do with "vouchers". They're government funded, Public Schools.

I think you missed the point of "Waiting for Superman".

And what about the other 95% of those parents that didn't show up.

Where this 'all kids are eager to learn, it's just the teachers that are preventing it' mentality came from I don't know.

Many years in a classroom will teach you that kids become more disrespectful, obnoxious, and more lazy every year.

People wanting degrees in education drops every year, and with good reason. Anyone that wants to make teaching a career has to have either little information or a few screws loose...
