How does a young couple with a 7 year old pay with for his/her education when they spend about 40% of their income on a place to live, still in debt from college loans, Health insurance off the roof(thats if they can even afford it), car insurance, Food, a safety cushion for a rainy season????? Must I remind you that our living standards keep rising but our wages stay the same (calculating inflation)and so most of us do not have the luxery to be stay at home moms or dads. <br />Should we just all stop reproducing then? Should I wait until I'm 65 when I can get my 401k out and medicare to have a baby? <br />I agree with the need to better our education system, but it cannot be done by privatizing it. I understand the unions might take it a bit far, but being a teacher is hard job. They don't get the respect they deserve. There should stricter requirements to becomeing a teacher. Teaching schools should be accredited under harsher regulations. Make the teaching profession more competitive. Doing away with public education isn't doing any good for anyone. Education is the key to social mobility. If people don't have access to it, should they just rot in their poor slums then?? Should they not be given a chance? Just let them be even more ignorant than they already are and increase crime rates. Don't go crying when you don't have a barricade to put around your beautiful neighborhood when the shit hits the fan just because you took away public education. <br /><br />Please, its ok to be against any idea/movement/strike...etc., but be use reason to argue your point. Not just some overused lines.CGM28noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21978939.post-33266326430326617702010-02-18T02:43:27.864-05:002010-02-18T02:43:27.864-05:00its past time for private schools,anything run by ...its past time for private schools,anything run by the government is going to cost twice as much and get have as much done.its time to get the socialist government out of america.......Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21978939.post-35801254654088193812009-12-26T05:53:56.659-05:002009-12-26T05:53:56.659-05:00Home School or Private School. The only answer to ...Home School or Private School. The only answer to the fascist NEA, and the zoos laughingly called schools that they "teach" in. If you can't home school then send them to a private faith based school or Charter school of your choice. Problem solved, no more government controlled public schools producing uneducated "entitlement class" morons at a 50 percent graduation rate. Thanks Teachers Union, with your protected incompetent teachers it's your fault, so, strike on, every time you do, you just drive in one more nail.Newsmediaspanhttp://www.newsmediaspan.com/noreply@blogger.com
