RE: If Not Them….
“And those who say that it’s not the government’s job to turn people into productive citizens pretty much nailed it, IMHO.” — Kev
….then who?
Parents? The majority of them have abrogated their responsibility to the vaunted American public education system.
The Schools? They’re refusing to do the job. I see a lot of that when I judge high school debate tournaments. And I witness it when the local community hammers the rep from the local university on the high non-grad rate they experience. [Note: Oddly enough, they don't hammer the K-12 reps at the same meeting when the university rep explains the students do not have the skills necessary for college-level courses.]
So who do you propose? The Church?
