Yeah, up in the morning and out to school

 The teacher is teaching the golden rule

American history and practical math
You study them hard, hoping to pass
Working your fingers right down to the bone
The guy behind you won't leave you alone (C Berry)

interesting tidbit in the news about our school systems....gov Murphy, under the guise of addressing the teacher shortage; have pushed a bill to lower the standards for becoming a teacher and eliminating tests and qualifications.  

First....is there a teacher shortage?

NO...there is shortage of people willing to take jobs in the inner city jungles and deal with the animal byproducts of a lawless society....plenty of teachers, but not enough suckers willing to work in this lawless environment and risk their own life.

Second...our schools are failing for many reasons, mainly it starts at home...let's be honest, these kids are living in single family unsupervised homes, there is no family structure or parental input/influence...not all, but most....some single parents are working to pay the rent and put food on the table and the kids are left to fend for themselves...other households are drug fueled flophouses and still others are occupied by welfare recipients that keep adding to the flock to get more money from uncle sam....our teachers are nothing more than day care providers...or taxpayer funded babysitters....but adding unqualified teachers to the mix will help nobody....so why do it Murph ?

because as Sy Symms used to say....an educated consumer is my best customer.......or in this case conversely....an uneducated simpleton is easily guided / controlled.......the Teachers Union is a powerful voting block.....adding less educated minorities to their payrolls will help come election day...never bite the hand that feeds you....if someone pulls you off the street and says i will give you a job with good pay, great benefits, a pension and summers off......you too would probably vote for that savior.

it's all part of the socialist playbook.....control the schools and you control the message.....bankrupt the nation....a starving person will gladly turn a blind eye if you offer them table scraps...and a stupid person will not even know enough to have to turn that blind eye.....education is bliss and of course

2+3=BEEER
