OBAMA, WE DON'T NEED MORE TEACHERS!!!

hello america!!! here's your daily jobs situation...http://www.dailyjobcuts.com/    again, very quiet at the moment...

i wrote about this yesterday...http://www.sfgate.com/nation/article/Obama-Education-data-justify-jobs-plan-3798736.php

again, i disagree with bailing out the states/city's. they have to get their own houses in order for the same reasons i stated yesterday. obama seems to think that more teachers are the answers to our educational problems however, he is so wrong...

we don't need more teachers---we need better teachers with better ways to teach & more authority. that said, it's still a challenge for the best teachers in the world to teach anything, to anyone, in a rotted atmosphere. too many of the neighborhoods where the students live are over run with gangs, drugs, violence & other crimes which have infested our schools all over the country. we have schools that have hired their own security company's to try & control what goes on within their walls; we have cameras & we have metal detectors that the students & visitors have to pass through before being admitted; students are required to display their school id's at all times; some schools have armed police in & around the schools from opening until closing &, the doors are constantly locked & you have to be buzzed in. how in the hell can you expect students to learn & teachers to teach under these conditions? both seem more concerned with just surviving the day.

while this isn't as big an issue at a lot of schools, parts of the same problems are. bully's & fights are a constant given. couple that with the rash of violence & senseless killings at our colleges & the learning picture becomes very bleak.

while most of the teachers may make enough money to live outside of the inner city's, a lot of them still reside within them. they & the students have to contend with all the problems that living in these areas present &, you every day, you read about shootings, gang activities, drug activities, burglaries, stolen cars, beatings, stabbings, rapes & other crimes.

most of our teachers really do want the best from their students as well as most of the students wanting the best from their teachers. it's one thing to go through a metal detector at a courthouse & quite another to have to go through one at a  school. if we can clean up the community & school environment, we'll be doing the teachers & students justice...

no obama, more teachers are not the answer. when you paint over rotted wood, you just delayed what you're eventually going to have to---replace the wood..............
