The people who run my teachers union are very well paid and rightfully. If you get Saturdays and Sundays off......THANK A UNION. Enjoy your human rights? THANK A UNION!!

France will be OK. Hollande is an excellent leader with excellent vision. Look at how the Conservatives are destroying the UK.

Let people believe or not believe in whatever they want. This thread shows how literally stupid many people are. Those of you who have posted in this thread are stupid. Grow up already and worry about things in this world that matter and stop arguing about trivial bullshit.

A high ranking Italian is predicting that things could turn nasty in Italy in 2014. I would say the reason for this has been conservatism in Italy. There could be massive riots as the rich get richer and the poor have a hard time finding jobs. http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/finance/ambroseevans-pritchard/100026297/italys-president-fears-violent-insurrection-in-2014-but-offers-no-remedy/

Obama has brought the Chinese to where he wants them. I become more impressed by Obama's tactical prowess every day.

Maybe it's not a bi deal then. Scientists have done more to combat HIV than cancer.

You are nothing but a troll. You trolled my last thread and when I asked you a question you hid.

waldo how is this possible with all the knowledge out there and all the education that has been hammered to people? or is it just white people receiving proper education? more whit privilege waldo?

I read this report b Professor Kevin Fenton of England. It is quite alarming, but then again I don't know what to believe anymore. I thought AIDS was under control. Not sure how reliable this report is though. http://www.bhiva.org/documents/Conferences/Autumn2013/presentations/131114/KevinFenton.pdf

Humans need to cut down GHG emissions. It's that simple.

Exactly what I said before my interesting thread was hijacked by trolls.

This may interest you if you can comprehend it. The Ultimate Public School Advantage: DEMOCRACY! http://www.thestar.com/news/insight/2011/04/08/the_ultimate_public_school_advantage_democracy.html

Dangerous? are you delusional? Do you even understand the concept of a properly functioning society? Read the graphic in my original post, and pay attention to the end. Public education is for the good of a BETTER SOCIETY. The collective is what is important.

Public education is leader in promoting social justice. Take a look at Alberta's Framework for Student Learning. This is awesome if you understand 21st century skills. This is why public education is necessary.

Without public education w would see democracy falter. Private schools create inequality and they are not healthy for democracy.

John Dewey adopted the Prussian model. Look it up.

Prussia to be exact. But John Dewey brought the Prussian model to North America. Look it up.

True. A great American named John Dewey is often credited as the grandfather of public education in North America. A great man; a great American.

Public education is absolutely necessary in order for democracy properly flourish. We are all benefactors of public education and an educated populace drives a nation's economy. I have to share a little picture I have. It is wise.

So what is happening in public schools presently that will prepare kids for getting an upper class job? For instance, what is the school system doing to prepare a kid to become a pharmacist?

Do you want a 3 year old to become addicted to a smartphone or ipad? Is that healthy. I'd say a 10 year old with little knowledge of Ipads and smartphones could very quickly catch on. I see too many teens who are oblivious of the world around them because they are smartphone "addicts". I don't know why I'm starting to see things differently.

Interesting. Do you have any actual research that proves that what you say is the best way to teach? Maybe teachers aren't even needed anymore. Maybe online learning is the wave of the future without well-paid "facillitators".

http://www.wired.com/business/2013/10/free-thinkers/ There are many outfits out there who think they have the answer on how to improve education. Maybe computers are the answer to improving education.

Who made you the authority on predictions? Anyone can make a prediction any time they want whether you think it's premature or not.
