    How many different groups is she going to blame?  Why not take a look in the mirror?  It would surely tell her that Trump is the fairest of all.

    I would argue the best actor should go to obama for his portrayal of an American president.

    What If Auto Garages Worked Like Public Schools?
    We don't force kids to go to mechanic school, so why do we force them to go to teacher school? This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up   by  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up
                Imagine a world in which all kids were sent to auto mechanic school for the first few decades of life.
    Some percentage of them, those destined for a future with cars and mechanical problems, would love it. It’d be a great fit for them. They’d spend their time focused on the skills they enjoy and that will bring them value in their careers as mechanics.
    For most, it would be wasteful and annoying. They’d spend years and years being prodded into memorizing and repeating facts and tasks that they don’t care much for and that bear no resemblance to what they’ll do for a career.
    Of course, those who grow up to be mechanics would think the whole system is great. They’d be genuinely baffled by people who dislike it or think it should be skipped or scrapped. They’d go on about how valuable all of the skills and habits gained in the system are for life.
    You don’t have to imagine an educational system like that because we already have it.
    Instead of mechanic school, it’s teacher school. And college is professor school.
    Public School Is Teacher School
    It’s no surprise that it’s such an epic waste for most people.
                 
    The entire system, top to bottom, is designed by and for teachers. All the things learned and methods of learning are valuable nowhere in any part of the real world except in the academic professions. The most effective learning happens just from being around things and being in an incentive structure that rewards certain behaviors. School means you spend all your time around educators (and none of it around any other real-world professions) and in an incentive system that rewards things they like. So that’s exactly what you learn; how to live like an academic. As I’ve described elsewhere, 
    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up . It’s no surprise then that teachers and professors are baffled by people who complain about the fluorescently-lit hell of classroom-cramming and credential-chasing. They loved the whole experience, and it taught them all the stuff they needed to succeed in their careers as academics and educators. It’s also no surprise that it’s such an epic, colossal waste for most people who want to enter other parts of the vast job market.
    There’s nothing bad about auto mechanic school. But it’s easy to spot the absurdity of forcing every person to spend 12 or 16 or 20 years in it and telling them it will be valuable no matter their interests, goals, or future career. It’s no less absurd to do what we currently do and force everyone to go to professor school for most of their young lives.

    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up This will take very, very little imagination, but imagine how the media would react if a GOP supporter was propagating things like this about Obama. No wonder the Left has disappeared from this site. How can anyone defend the actions of their fellow cohorts? But somehow, somewhere, many Liberals are still out there in their safe space spouting that Obama was treated badly as president, while simply ignoring the mountains of contradictory evidence piled right in front of their face.
    Would anyone care to buy one of these?
