... Do you have a proposal that you believe could work - separating out the spending from the money printing? Â* Â*Maybe give up the power to print money to some international body? Â* Or do you prefer that we go back to gold, and no more IOUs such as loans on paper? Let me try to answer this. The further decisions can be made from the individual, the greater the corruption, cronyism and politics as usual. An international body is further from individual control. Wasn't America supposed to be about voluntary agreement instead of forced obedience?

I'd prefer to measure the education throughout one's life. The goal isn't to have the best 6th grade test takers, the goal is to have the best educated work force. So that's what should be measured. I can see you have had no experience in the past ten years with hiring personnel. It is a rarity when you can find one who can properly fill out an application. Oh, yes, I know when you're hiring someone for cleanup or menial job positions that you don't need an English major, but it is nice to have someone who can spell and tell you what ten percent of ten is without having to use a computer for a minute, then come up with a guess.

Steve I don't know who you are responding to but education doesn't NECESSARILY equate to intelligence or common sense or analytical skills or knowledge or life experiences. There's a lot of folks out there with multiple sheepskins that can't tie their shoes or operate a microwave oven. |
