By the age of eight, she had completed her first year of high-school algebra and was factoring quadratics in her head.< snip >
Her political education in political economics is taking a serious turn to the right. She started a college-level economics text last year and is learning ever more about how liberals think. Last year's term paper concerned five books by Charles Dickens, An Angry Boy Who Changed the WorldHere is the conclusion to that paper:Dickens was so distracted with his anger over his childhood, that he couldn't see the benefits of the Industrial Revolution. Industry gave work to poor people so that they could provide children food and shelter. Technology made essential goods available to those who couldn't otherwise afford them. The migration of workers to the factories spurred business for remaining farmers. Industry created demand for interesting new skills. Technology created new opportunities for professionals to solve complex problems. The Industrial Revolution produced the wealth that, in time, improved living and working conditions for everyone. 25,26Through his novels, Dickens’ subjective perception of the Industrial Revolution created a culture of hostility against industrial development and a habit of depending upon government to solve the problems by restricting business. That cultural bias has the capability to harm the poor and middle class workers whom Dickens was trying to help.It took WAY too long, but she did OK.Whoa !! I'm sitting here with my jaw wide open, and speechless. I'm impressed.
Way to go Powerbaby !
