The American educational system could be improved
for sure—and too many children are being left
behind—but the steady din of sweeping criticism
that says we are deeply intellectually inferior to
the rest of the world and underproducing the
knowledge workers the modern economy requires is
simply a ruse to try to justify more and more
guestworkers.

…for something positive and good about others. I just watched the dateline (recorded) of “perverted justice” as part of my research on gender issues. Between the men chasing down 13 year-old girls, the “shooters” here and there on the news, and feminist comments about men in the paper recently, most of us start overlooking the bulk of huMANity – people who simply go to work, take care of their families, pay taxes and live decent lives, those men who are not the best athletes or highest paid CEO’s or “creeps” that seem to get all the time in the spot light in much of what we see, or hear.

I too was impressed with how humble some people are for doing work that the rest of us could only dream about. And I am impressed that you took the time to share what you shared with the rest of us. We need more time spent on accentuating the positive, don’t we?
