|  |  | "The Myth of the Angry White Male What has sprung up is a strange
kind of thinking.... Americans are unhappy with their lot. They are
feeling insecure ? layoffs and corporate downsizing have made their future
uncertain. Stirred up by talk radio, the theory goes, large numbers of
formerly sensible people have embraced "hate" and "extremism." Most of
these, according to the media, are white guys. A Washington Post/ABC
pre-election poll asked voters if they were angry "about the way the
federal government works." Four out of five white males said no. 62
percent of white men voted for Republican House candidates (38 percent for
Democrats in 1994, a ten-point increase from the 1990 midterm elections).
But was this special to their gender? In 1994 white women voted for
Republican House candidates by a 55 to 45 percent majority. Significantly,
there isn"t single article decrying "angry white females."" |  |  | Found in the topic Unsorted.
|  |  | "Education Many believe our entire public-education establishment is
going in exactly the wrong direction. Rather, having a goal of real
achievement, the trend seems to be toward reaching some kind of
educational parity, to make sure no students feel badly about themselves.
The liberal educational theoreticians tell you that bad grades only serve
to discourage underachievers. The primary objective of Outcome-Based
Education is to avoid humiliating a student. We should be educating the
student first. Students are passing courses and graduating because of
lower requirements, because of this new philosophical belief that no one
should be held back. Colleges and universities are finding out that a
high-school diploma is meaningless in terms of real achievement. The
liberal school establishment lowers standards, ignores human nature,
refuses to reward success and doesn"t punish failure." |  |  | Found in the topic Education.

he should see how it is with representation." |  |  | Found in the topic Tax.

Civilization is the distance man has placed between himself and his excreta.Brian Aldiss
All men dream: but not equally. Those who dream by night in the dusty recesses of their minds wake in the day to find that it was vanity: but the dreamers of the day are dangerous men, for they may act their dream with open eyes, to make it possible.T. E. Lawrence
