LOL, however, public school is child abuse, with or without subsidized bricks.

Seriously? They’re blaming the building materials now instead of a) crappy unionized teachers and b) parents too exhausted from holding two jobs to effectively monitor and discipline the children?

Oh, that would be too difficult to fix. Let’s just blame the bricks.

Funny, I always thought the bricks were fine.

It was liberal teachers with “education” degrees, teacher’s unions with no concern about anything except tenure and pensions, and “administrators” possessing a sum IQ less than that of a pile of sh...er...Obamastuff that was the cause of the lack of education.

Silly me.

Maybe they should try teaching the kids instead of throwing bricks at them...

a note of caution because bricks appears to have disastrous effects on education

Calling Booker T. Washington.... those bricks you so skillfully fashioned to finance your institute have been shown to be a detriment to education.

I had trouble wrapping my head around the article at first, but then I connected the dots when I saw the comments.

I just... don’t know what to say. I have no idea what to comment on. Does this mean my brick and mortar high school failed me? Were the bricks not intelligent enough, and the mortar not strict enough?

(this article could easily be torn apart I think)

According to taxpayer funded scientific research, there's only one way to effectively overcome the evil force of bricks ...

The problem is we are trying to get every child to achieve the same level of success. This will never happen, regardless of how much money we throw at it. There will always be people that will only have skills to dig a ditch or clean a floor. Others will reach much higher levels. Sometimes this disparity is because of abilities, some because of the social environment they grow up in, some just choose to limit their potential. We have been throwing money at this issue for decades with very little success. Time to move on and give resources to areas that actually have a dividend.

I knew it! It was only a matter of time before the leftists would trash the reputation of Little Pig number 3! He had the foresite and intelligence to build his house with stones, unlike his lazier and less astute brothers who used hay and sticks. Pig #3 was undoubtedly a conservative. Miss Piggy would have liked to meet him as he would have been able to aupport a family!

Just one more fairy tale that the the left will soon declare injurious to little minds. Of course the little minds are their own!!!!
