It didn't slam down, it more lumbered over as a small mountain of food scraps covered Dummy. Smart guy looked up and down the alley, praying he wouldn't see a horde of maniacs at either, or both ends. “God Dammit,” Dummy growled as he tried to stand up. His feet slipped on the greasy scraps as he went down on his ass. Smart Guy couldn't help but laugh as he watched this poor slob wallow in the mounds of stinking garbage. As Dummy crawled out far enough away to gain his footing, he stood up and kicked at the trash.

    The Smartest Kids in the World and How They Got that Way

    America is a country that currently spends more money on public education per student than any other nation in the world; nevertheless, these good intensions have achieved only slight positive outcomes. For instance, in PISA (Programme for International Student Assessment), an authoritative test used to measure the education levels of students from 53 countries, American students ranked 12th in reading, 17th in science, and 26th in math. No doubt, a question like this one has been argued for decades “ what exactly is happening in foreign countries that allows them to out-pass America in terms of academics?” The Smartest Kids in the World: And How They Got That Way is an illuminating book by Amanda Ripley that answers the question by showing how other countries educate their kids in a much more effective way than we do.…

Rose was stressing his point to say that, in as much as the white collar job (workers) are perceived in the society as higher educated people it brings conflict among us. Also making the minimal jobs look less valuable and cripple our ability to talk across cultural divides. Blue collar jobs are far more effective; without these kind of jobs, it will be pretty difficult to communication and relate with different culture or society of people.it creates hope for those who had little or no opportunity to have sound education. What makes us is the ability to fit into the society of different class such as upper class, middle class and lower class.…
