It's been proven that public schools do not teach money mgmt and because of standardized testing many high school graduates are entering community college needing math, reading, and science prep courses. the point I am doing my best to make is that as far as visionary leaders are concerned, and taxes, and all the ills which have taken the wind out of the sails of the collective grads bringing out apathy and a need to work for pay rather than passion, is that as gradual as the decline is the climb back up is even more challenging. The question is: Who can step to the plate?<BR/><BR/>Ive read your blog for a long time and this is my first time responding. You give me reason to think and improve upon myself and others.
