Classe move to China

"Outsource your face to some other 3rd world contry".
That's funny, Nonoise. It also sounds reasonable. Where would I move it..? Well, though it is not a 3rd world country at all, I think I would send it to India maybe because they are in fierce competition with China or, even better, oh hell, to Iran. They would fix it for free in no time and would just ask me to say a few words on TV about American health care. I would both comply and insist.

Nonoise, If collective bargaining is such bad things why then 5 states that have teachers collective bargaining ban resulted in combined SAT/ACT as follows:

South Carolina -- 50th
North Carolina -- 49th
Georgia -- 48th
Texas -- 47th
Virginia -- 44th

No one would hold it against you. Least of all me.
While you're there, could you pick up some chicken kabab and hummus for me?

Kijanki,

Good question but I can't figure that one out without asking for a lifeline, or would that be collective in nature?

Maybe divide and conquer has the lowest common denominator as it's desired result. An uneducated populace is much easier to control. That, or making public education look bad is necessary in order to turn it over to the superior private sector where, guess what, the results turn out about the same but the public monies end up in private hands. The Enron model can be used in many interesting ways.

Off to bed for me!

All the best,
Nonoise
