The Economy and the School System

The economy is going down the drain at the present moment. People are worried about their debts along with many other consequences that the bad economy is bringing. The bottom line is that there must be a problem with the system.

Kids are educated to go by what they are told. They are taught to follow orders, no matter what the orders are. Teachers will say to do completely ridiculous things like, "Do a 30 page paper by Friday" and the kids in the class will comply. There are no questions asked. There is only a slight groaning that fades into a dying sob.

Let's face it. Americans are not the kind of people to think outside of the box. We do what we have always done no matter what that means for us. Times are changing, we should too. When you look around at the world, you may begin to notice that the old ways have not changed. Same school system, same jobs, and same ideas. Sure we have learned to expand on ideas that are given to us, but when was the last time we came up with our own ideas?

There are many ways to fix the economy, we just aren't capable of seeing them yet. Our secluded minds do not even know that we have other choices.

We need change and we need it soon.
