Who'd of thought a public school classroom would have close to 70 students in it? Not I. But in today's time, young children - not college students - will experience it. Indiana Gov. Mitch Daniels, a Republican, says it doesn't matter the size of the classroom. He says a great teacher will overcome.
Really.
What Daniels does not comprehend - or care to - is the fact not all students learn the same and it's not college, where students there decide when to come class and how to learn the subject.
Children need more attention. They need more instruction. That's what builds them for more responsible endeavors such as college and/or a job. Educating them as if they are on an assembly line is absurd to say the least.
But hey, don't be surprised. In those same newscasts, parents are asking why education takes the prime hit in budget cuts. Well, those Republicans that pull your chain over God, guns and gays have more sneakier agendas to push.
They can't stand education. Especially when they can't control who gets educated via taxpayer dollars. They try, of course, to implement private school vouchers funded by public funds. They try other means, but none prove productive.
And when they bash public education for items such as low test scores and high dropout rates, they expect the fine people to remember a gun is in your hand, not the fact they cut so much money and support from schools that cause such low test scores and high dropout rates.
Schools in South Carolina are stretched thin enough, but Gov. Nikki Haley, a Republican, couldn't care less. The hundreds of millions cut from schools is the root cause of failed legislation created to benefit rich property owners - known as Act 388.
Plus, New York real estate tycoon and dweeb Howard Rich spends money like it's going out of style on Republican failures in efforts to get legislation passed in a state where he does not live.
Then, you have administrators in some schools determined to keep out the good-doers (volunteers) so they can please Republicans and hope to keep a job.
Again, stop acting surprised. People voted for Republicans and expected them to be all like Jesus or something? A bunch of followers - all misguided.
Yeah, these Republicans tell you one thing and you all fall for it - while your children suffer. I am sick and damn tired of this nonsense. People vote more because of what they hear from others than on facts.
But who cares. You got your gun. God is on TV. Oh, and gays are locked up somewhere. A Republican told me.
If people in this country - and in South Carolina - do not wake the hell up and realize it's their voting causing such turmoil, then please understand you'll have to accept the consequences afterward.
And one might be having to learn Chinese in order to make a product...
Funny thing, though. Where WOULD you learn it?
