Have been pondering the answer to questions about our education system, our economy, our political system, and the fact that many CEOs make more money than I do. First, take education. If teacher training was more like Navy Seal training at least our teachers would be more ready to handle discipline problems. Although I think water boarding should be banned. One final step would be to take prospective teachers and have them locked in a room for several days with teacher training specialists armed with tons of butcher paper. The training doesn’t stop until someone gives up and rings the bell. Next we need physically fit students. There should be 05:00 AM physical training to include marathons and mud runs. And what about a teachers’ retirement compound located near the sand dunes in the beautiful Mojave?
Now about the economy, what if all teachers were given 20,000 dollars a month if they agreed to spend it all every month. It the students got 10,000 think of the stimulus. Maybe they should use this idea with Greece. I should be at the G8 meeting or maybe not. I predict that the economy will someday get better and all of you will be able to pay off student loans before the turn of the century or sooner. Remember to keep spending on proms to help the many thousands involved in dress making, tux rentals and in infested areas garlic necklaces.
As for our political system it’s a bit flayed but so are most of the world’s systems. China is doing it’s 10 year change and all kinds of scandals and fireworks are popping up. Greece has many more problems. Russia has Putin again. That being said we need to go back to exactly what the founders war thinking in that second story in the summer of 1787. Was it “It’s really hot and the air conditioning isn’t working so let’s make a deal?” Anyway I love these election years and even as I have stated earlier the attack ads. They are no worse than many in the early years. If only Hamilton and Jefferson had had super PACs and the internet. Things are not getting worse they are just getting.
Should I get more in retirement than the CEO of Facebook does now? Could or should I have an IPO? What if it went for 200 billion? Actually I enjoy my retirement and if I had 200 billion would have to hire an accountant and might not have time to walk my manlypoodlekip.
