Answer 1

interesting

Answer 2

Terrorists? WTF!? Since when did terrorists matter? That ****'s just made up anyway. It's to scare you into Conforming.
Look, in order to sustain a hierarchical society (aka richest 1% people STAY rich, Poor people STAY POOR), you must have a GRAND STRUGGLE between US and "THEM". This struggle serves to drive and define new generations. It simply brainwashes them into believing that the Rich care about the Poor, when in fact all the Rich care about is ENSLAVING the poor. The Poor march right along in their fight against other Poor people who just happen to be the scapegoat of the day.
All the while oblivious to the atrocities of the ruling elite against EVERYONE else. It used to be the COLD WAR against those "godless communists". In the 90's it was the War on Drugs, Now it's the WAR on Terror, which uses fear MORE than the "terrorists". Soon it will be the War on Thought.

Disclaimer: There are morons who seem to think that God wants them to kill all non-believers. There have always been these idiots in every religion, Christianity is NO exeption. These radical Islamists can only be diffused by tolerant, progressive Islamists, (you know the ones who kept knowledge alive when the Christians were killing people for knowing that 2+2=4), NOT BULLETS. Killing people only makes you a killer, not a peacemaker. It may appear to be peace, but it's just fear of the "peacemaker".

Answer 3

We waste far too much money on education already, our public school systems are a sham and all they are becoming is mouthpieces for National Education Association. You'd rather be lying in a foxhole in the space where your home used to be worrying about where the next terrorist attack is coming from than lifting one finger in defense of this country.

Liberals - it's all about wanting more of your money for projects that they want - they don't care about people or measurable results or positive outcomes - they just are in love with programs that allow them to think that they are doing something. That's what delusional is, and that's why they are liberals, and that's why they have no real answers for any of the issues in this country. And most of all - it's why they have been out of power for most of the last quarter century and will continue to be so....

It's also why they are angry, negative and frustrated...

Answer 4

"Quality" teachers? Most teachers are idiots. They are the people who couldn't do anything else with their lives. Most male teachers are also p ussies. Remember Columbine? when the massacre broke out, all the male teachers DESERTED their students, and ran out of the school like little fairy limp wristed
p ussies. They make me puke.

I'm tired of hearing how "hard" teachers work. They get paid for a full year's work, and get two months off. Real nice deal. Teachers do not work "harder" than any other people - lawyers, journalists, garbage men, janitors, carpenters. I work hard, and I don't get two freakin' months off. Saying that teachers "work hard" is an insult to those of us who work the WHOLE year.

Instead of spending millions on their campaigns, couldn't Democrats have donated that money to hire more teachers? Perish the thought...

Answer 5

Very good idea, only problem is, they would be teaching
you the Koran, Pedophilia for men, Wife abuse, and polygamy.
Not to mention terrorism(the Muslim extremist seem to like
this sort of thing).
Seems better to go to Iraq and Afghanistan to me.
I Corinthians 13;8a, Love never fails!!!!!

EDIT: Hey david c, you might want to take a break from studies
and Yahoo! Answers, and go get some Jamba Juice or something.

Answer 6

We could also hire 5 million additional quality teachers if they got rid of the bad ones first. This is what is so cool about no child left behind. It weeds them out.

Answer 7

Quality is one thing but Qualified is another. I really do not have many things nice to say about the public school system in the United States.

Answer 8

Did you know our freedoms are priceless?

Besides teachers aren't going to solve anything but more teachers...until the student has some kind of drive outside of schools (ie parents, after school tutor program...) the education system will never work.

Answer 9

you guys know NOTHING about teachers, what they do and what they are worth.

Teachers are losers? **** you guys. I can't believe the obvious outspoken sentiments against education. Stay dumb and carry a gun!

We don't spend ENOUGH on education, Cheesehead. 17 billion was just cut from higher education grants and loans. Where is that going? War.

******* war mongers. You know nothing but what you are fed.

Answer 10

Yes, and then the terrorist would have schools with the extra 5 million teachers to Blow Up. Must extinguish the terrorist before we can have safe schools, safe civilization.

Answer 11

Yes but which is more important..5 million teachers or Freedom?
