Stop doing the wrong things in education

Mott the Hoople said:
Finally, a common sense, evidence based approach to improving public education. Not undermining it.

In the early years of the twenty-first century, a bipartisan consensus arose about educational policy in the United States. Right and left, Democrats and Republicans, the leading members of our political class and our media elite seemed to agree: Public education is broken. Our students are not learning enough. Public schools are bad and getting worse. We are being beaten by other nations with higher test scores. Our abysmal public schools threaten not only the performance of our economy but our national security, our very survival as a nation. This crisis is so profound that half measures and tweaks will not suffice. Schools must be closed and large numbers of teachers fired. Anyone who doubts this is unaware of the dimensions of the crisis or has a vested interest in defending the status quo.

You have lost money relative to the market. That means you lose. You didn't do as well as the market. That means you are a failure. You should have just bought SPY ETF and called it a day bitch.

You are exposed as a failure.

I've been here 10 years
I said back them I wanted to be a millionaire
I reached it 7 years faster than the average millionaire
Nobody consistently beats the market!
I did by accident being in oil for the 80's thru 2012
My stocks are way less risky Han the market, ie beta way less than 1
In 2001 and 09 I went down way less than the market
That may help some young guy!

It is dimwitted to argue about the daily movements of stock values in an irrational market being fueled by the idiot Fed policy of printing money. Although, for the Government, this is great because they get a huge profit from this lunacy.

But then, you're also the same dimwit making the claim that Presidencies are a good indicator of markets and wealth.

I'm especially amused by the Obama example. What was the increase you attributed to his Presidency again?
