A new documentary film, "Looking for Superman" suggests that American education is severly flawed. Is this view justified?

As a former history teacher, I believe that the majority of today's public issues are rooted in the quality - or lack thereof - of American education. Never in my own memory have I noticed so many students (and adults) who are so uninformed about even the most basic facts of history, civics, geography ... Recent studies suggest that U.S. schools rank well below other nations in the disciplines of math and science ... "Waiting for Superman" (which needs to be shown locally) says that the "blame" or "responsibility" for this sad state of affairs rests upon several factors - i.e. the distractions of TV and computer games; teachers' unions that support "tenure" for some incompetent teachers; uncaring parents; "pressure groups" that demonize public education to promote private, sectarian schools; politicians who burden schools with "unfunded mandates" like "No Child Left Behind" ... Or is it "all of the above"

And yet the Know Nothing Expert still cant wrap its pea brain around the fact that as retiree's no former active union members pay dues ! So all its typical half-truths and lies don't mean anything ! Of course we would expect that sort of mis-leading crap from wrongriki ! And just why would anybody care about what a non-working leach on society has to say on unions ? It has no experience and the only info it gets is from right-wing garbage factories !

“ “So-called ‘right to work’” is currently We Are Ohio’s catchphrase of choice against workplace freedom, after Media Trackers caught We Are Ohio leaders on camera unable to defend the union “No Rights At Work” slogan during a press conference. ”

Badgering - the act of harassing someone.

Badgering - the act of tormenting by continued persistent attacks and criticism
