haha you create a full proof way to fix american education, student productivity, teacher vigilance, and parental responsibilty ( all factors leading to the american educational decline) and ill be the first behind you
haha ya neither do I but I dont necessarily think they know theyre doing anything wrong. Its the same as a small child that tosses a toy in a store on the ground. to them all they are doing is not putting it back correctly, but to the store that toy could get damaged on t he ground, and if it does they dont make profit on that toy they payed for, leading the store to crank up prices to compensate for the loss. The child doesnt know how his actions affect the economy any more than immigrants do. I believe there should be mandatory college courses in economy haha
oh no i agree whole heartedly that so many other nations these days are offering better students, and said students are coming to our schools, what I dont like about all of this is that these students create a spot for themselves in our economy, and instead of keeping the money they make in our circulation they send it home, effectively taking so so amounts out of our already hurting economy. when you have thousands of students coming here, getting educations and jobs, then leaving home with what they made here, it hurts us.
ya i know what you mean, im not so much against them coming here and learning, im just worried about so many coming here, making money here in the states, and sending it home. if one guy sends home a thousand dollars a year to his family in europe, then thousand or hundreds of thousands of people start doing that, then our nation loses that money. And as it is, the money our nation has in its own hands is already being spent out of home, ignoring so many problems here that this money could help with.
memorization is the hard part haha, its the practice that gets you.
My bad I must have jumped to a conclusion, as there are arabs in Iran and with the situations for arabs right now your comment seemed more of a racial bias, as for my argument, Im saying any student deserves an education, but based on their merits, not their race, age, sex, or where theyre from. Many colleges have minority acceptance quotas, and its seems implorable that someone is admitted to a college based on his background, I dont mind so much people coming here, studying, then leaving home (although it hurts our economy) but I do despise minorities making a niche in our laws to benefit themselves when it is undeserved. Simply put Im not a fan of people whining to get what they want, including a majority of immigrants.
I agree there is little evidence showing that drugs and alchohol have major societal harm based on the fact that few societies allow drug use. But if you look at the statistics of one of the major known legalized drug countries, Amsterdam, you will see a huge increase in crime and moral depravity in their nation.
beautifully spoken, and it reminds me of something I read that most European countries will not even let an immigrant fly their home flag in their new country, a sense of nationalism we dont hold so strongly here in the states.
As an Lebanese American I have to say I dissagree with your stance. First off I dont believe I should be kept from school just because Im arab american even if i want to study nuclear physics or any other "suspicious" event, it seems now a days racism is only tolerable towards arabs. Second off I live in california and many of our educational institutions are suffering do to a need to increase the classes for an ethnic race that doesnt wish to take up american nationalism and lower the teaching standards for many people. so why should students any where not just natural born citezens suffer because people born out of the country are getting priorities?
drugs are illegal, abusing medications, illegal, so just because someone isnt adversely affected at school by being under an influence doesnt negate the fact that they have still done something illegal, and now they are on a campus with other students in a period of life where they are heavily influenced by their peers. so by drug testing students we could be taking another step, no matter how small, to creating drug free campuses.
