Education ...please feel free on the quote usage :-)<br />Education is vitally important but doesn't work in vacuum.

A society that does that is not bankrupt; it's in debt. To the tune of several trillions.<br /><br />Capitalism is starting to sicken me, Paul. It's starting to sicken my friends, too.<br /><br />(By the way, would you mind if I used that quote from you in the future?)<br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
