"Education is a right! That is why we have to fight!!!"
I can't believe that, in America, so many public schools are closing. Education is the only equalizer, the one area of our lives that we can have the chance to catapult ourselves toward a bright future through studying hard. Learning and becoming socially inept are some of the fundamental aspects of our lives that we are engendered with at school. Cultural diversity and all-inclusive tolerance are also taught daily, civic approaches that are desperately needed in this ever-smaller, more tightly-knit global community.
If we don't all have the same opportunities simply because politicians and their shady benefactors decided so, then we are no longer the country we aim to be. The international image of the USA is already tarnished by its imperialistic wars, its lawless and gutless torture prisons as well as its selfishness with regards to the destruction of our planet through drastic global warming / climate change. At the very least, we must ensure that future generations can change this horrible inheritence by keeping public schools open. Privitazation of schools (charter or otherwise) only further disenfranchises our general population and degredates their future well-being. It ensures that the workforce of the future will have only methodical, standardized, instruction-following skills and not a mature, liberal broad-mindedness. You cannot get anywhere in your life without a good education. You cannot reach higher stations if you don't have the basics down.
As Asean Johnson said, "Education is a right! That is why we have to fight!!!" Never should any of us allow public schools to close simply because of greedy politics. ¡Viva educacion!
