Education will improve exponentially when you de-unionize it and bring more high-tech to the classroom.

Agree with the first part of your statement, but what's missing in education isn't high tech. The problem is that our schools are failing to teach the three Rs, science, and history.

Prior generations of Americans were much better educated than those of today, and high tech had nothing to do with it.

The Homer Simpson / Beavis and Butt-head generation has plenty of "high-tech"...



...what they lack is the character and ability to recognize that Homer Simpson was supposed to be a satirical commentary on the deleterious cultural effects of having drooling idiots running the postmodern technological infrastructure --- and not a role model to be emulated.

**...bring more high-tech to the classroom.** I respectfully disagree with your statement. I think a return to a Classical/Traditional Education model would solve a myriad of problems.
