American Education, A Disgrace? Essay, Research Paper

Our sound and just system of government serves as a model and ray of hope to countries in the midst of political turmoil. Though our system of government and economy are the strongest in the world, these weaker nations must be thriving and putting us to shame in education.

In addition to this, take a look at our military for a moment. The U.S. military is the only militaristic superpower at this point and is unparalleled in its efforts to keep peace around the globe, single-handedly. Do you see the mighty Japaneese in such a position of levrage? However, opponents of the system obviously know the Japanese children have been better taught what it takes to become successful for decades.
