I don't buy it. There are always exceptions, though.

Matt is constant, that is one fact. His story never changes away from a
very narrow stance.

Perhaps his story is based on principle. Principles don't
don't change with polls or political expedient.

And facts don't change.

The problems with public education are myriad, but mostly systematic and
epistemological.

Yes, many teachers are stupid. Perhaps the vast majority. Thomas Sowell, who
has been studying the problem for almost 40 years, found that over 75% of
teachers came from the bottom quartile of their graduating classes. We've
heard a few people talking about how dedicated many teachers are, but
dedication does not impart one bit of knowledge or ability. Odd, isn't it,
that teachers and make that distinction?

Morgan's story never changes and it's right out of the AFT playbook. He's a
shill and a damn ignorant one at that.

He's the idiot that didn't discern my quoting Alexis d'Touqueville's
"Democracy in America", and ignorantly shoved his foot in his mouth right up
to the knee. If he is in any way indicative of teachers, it makes no
difference how much money they get, or how attentive the parents are (his
typical juvenile brat excuse), a dozen electricians won't be able to fix
your plumbing. It debased at the fundamental level.

Note, too, how attentive the kids are when being force-fed environmental
propaganda, post-modernist drivel like "diversity" and the like, and leftist
political indoctrination. In fact, it's that post-modernist track that's
part and parcel of the public schools failure.

On the other side of the coin, the Montessori program (which were banned by
Hitler and Mussolini in their respective countries, for obvious reasons)
teach kids how to think, to conceptualize and abstract. Kids learn to teach
themselves new things and develop a proper adult maturity. If you notice
some people in the 30's, 40's and older that evidently have grey hair and
middle-age spreads around the belt, but think and carry on like teenagers,
it's a good bet they never had such instruction when young.

And you sir, are a total ass that would not listen to reason if it was an
atom bomb going off inside his ear.

Keep living in your la-la land. Call me ignorant if you want, but I would
rather be know as that, than an ass.

MxMatt, here is a "Fact" that never changes; there are people like you
who try to represent thier opinions as "facts". I like the way you can
have strong totalitarian "Facts" on things you know nothing about. I
really like the way you revise history . Another thing that makes your
posts so special is the use of big words, it slays me when you refer
readers to the dictionary. You are without a doubt the most
entertaining poster in this group. Dont ever change
