[quote=Anonymous][quote]I think PP doesn't realize that schools have traditionally played a significant part in indoctrinating culture. The requirement that schools solve the problem of poverty and/or lack of value of education, though, [b]is new[/b]. And probably impossible, but still worth some effort. [/quote] What do you consider new? The war on poverty is over fifty years old. Education has been included in that from the beginning. Sure, the schools need to play a part--but they cannot do it all. They've tried. It doesn't work. It starts at home. Period. That doesn't mean that schools shouldn't try--but what we are doing is not working--and tons and tons of money has been thrown at the problem. Money alone won't solve it. It just goes to bureaucrats in the school system and does not get to the classroom. [/quote]
