The American educational system is a disaster, so the rich turn to the best

Quote from Scataphagos:

The American "education disaster" is because of Socialism/Progressivism.

Wake UP America!

:mad:


So socialist countries like Finland ,Sweden, Norway, Germany, which are way ahead of us as far education have problems because of socialism?

1) The "problem" is "diversity". If the US could remove the underachieving minorities from the data sample, its ranking would be a lot higher. :cool:
2) Homogenous societies like those European countries don't have the same problem.....yet. :eek:

agreed. France, which has a high level of education coming out of highschool, is heading down the same road as we are. But many of the people say its because the highschool expects kids to do too much work that they give up and take a different degree option and start work earlier.

I knew a french guy in university here in the states, he had already done all of the math and science work required in the first 2 years of university here when he was in highschool.

Its not even about state socialism controls or not...if the government mandated a tough academic curriculum , stopped the schools from trying to make a profit on education.

as Mr Scataphagos says that the problem is Socialism...the argument could be made and is more compelling that capitalism is the problem.

Of course a hard right wing person like him wont ever admit that he is wrong.

As long as they are concentrated into a several square block area, then it's not so "bad". :)
