Fed ed policy's ridiculous.

But so much of what we're told to do, so many foolish ideas are passed off as wisdom, so many assumptions that we are expected to take into the classroom--and which teachers do take into the classroom--make Am ed broken.

Add in politicians, lawyers, school boards, education professors, and the stuff the kids like to be exposed to and, well, it's not just broken. It's laughable.

Then again, this is true of most other countries, as well.
