Hi Tom -
If you believe that education creates better people - and you believe
that America is the best country in the world to live in - then you must
therefore believe that our education system made our country better.
My view point - I was a public school teacher for 33 years in the
backwoods of PA. I have seen many great teachers there come and go. I
feel our students do very well for themselves. Our system is not perfect
and we are constantly trying to improve it. If you would spend a few
years in our system - you would come out with nothing but admiration.
Lots of people try to be teachers - and leave after a couple years
burned out.
I am no idea what you do for a living - but I am sure it is not as easy
a target as public schools - everyone that goes through a school as a
student thinks they are an expert on education. :-)
