My first essay

So, I’ve decided, because I love to debate and discuss hot topics, I would write informal essays of my opinions on certain topics that you can all discuss, and we can debate. They will be on “hot button issues” and things that are salient in todays society, but they won’t be things that are publishable or whatever. I’m just a lowly college student, but we tend to have great debates here, and after a debate, I can’t stop talking about the topics. So I figure this is a great way to “let the aggressions out.” (I love to argue :lol: )

Any way, my first one is titled Teaching… a skill?. I’ve just started it, and I have tons of points to get to, and it’s taking me forever because, if you haven’t noticed already, I can be long winded. Never the less, it is specifically (right now) about the Detroit Teachers Union, and their recent strike, however, I do plan on getting to a more general view, using Detroit as an example, soon. You can check it out. All of my writings will be stored in the folder entitled My Thoughts.

<edit>The first essay is basically done. I just have to go over it and add a few points, check it out and comment!</edit>

It’s the government, who is more concerned with business and profit than the state of it’s students, that needs the spotlight on it. It’s this government that allows self-interested people to take control of a school system and ruin it without any consequences. It’s our government that is destroying our students and future by not giving a damn when it is their job to give a damn.

Trying this technorati thing: Technorati Profile. Although it’s not working. I can’t claim my blog, it keeps saying, “We could’t connect to your blog host.”

If wishes were horses, beggars would ride
If turnips were watches, i'd wear one by my side
If "ifs" and "ands" were pots and pans,
there'd be no need for tinkers' hands." more?
