And continuing from my previous post:
What the heck is going on with "no child left behind?" The only thing that this accomplishes is holding the best and brightest on the level of the not best and brightest. That means that countries like Japan, India, and Germany are producing the bulk of the worlds scientists and doctors. What does America produce? Almost 70% of the world's lawyers. Does that inspire any confidence? Not that the amount of lawyers that America provides the world has anything to do with "no child left behind," but it is something else to think about. Anyway, America can't afford to let herself lose the advantage that she has. We as a country have always survived because of our creative intelligence and engineering spirit. If we lose that, I don't think that we'll survive long. . .
