Sticking with the game show theme for a moment too long perhaps, the federal government is issuing $100 billion to the states to help get them through the next two years. The problem is that some states are in such a deficit they are spending their allotment in the first year.
Maybe large class sizes, quality teachers leaving the profession, and poor working/learning conditions is really an opportunity.
We could simply get rid of schooling beyond the 8th grade and have a new show on FOX (who else?) called Who Wants to Be A Graduate?
Maybe the picture at the right would be less funny if it became more commonplace. We wouldn't have such high expectations for people if we just taught them less. And think of the money we'd save!
Would that make us richer?
