That sounds like the kind of thinking that a businessman would come up with.
Not quite. Normally, I teach American Government and Economics. This year I'm taking a break with World History. Next year I anticipate being back on the front lines. I'm NOT a "progressive" educator. Nor am I alone, even though I teach in the 4th largest school district in the nation. I am very pro-business. I am a capitalist. I was raised in a time when instead of taking American Government, the class I was taught as a student in high school was called: Americanism versus Communism. I had my father as the perfect example because he had directly experienced Russian Marxism.
