I don't think that's going to work, Penguin. I tested it on Babelfish and was able to find the spelling error immediately. The internet has put cheap online translators at the fingertips of the world. However, I share your skepticism of his professed aptitude for linguistics, especially in light of his stated attitude towards education.

Those who can't hang will raise cane about it "killing the individual".

And I really don't care what you learned in fashion class. Neither should you since "few things of value" are learned through high school courses. And you tend to be arguing that "nothing in school is right" if you'll allow me to make assumptions as you have.

At the end of the day, it really doesn't matter if uniforms exist or not. I certainly HOPE that by the time I have kids and they're going to school, it's a fixture. If not, that's fine too. Those who want to learn will learn, those who don't will focus on the minutiae.
It'll never be a fixture. It will never happen in America. Just like Communism will never happen in America.

Edit: And quit using double posts to get your post count up.. makes your trolling even more obvious. There's a edit function for a reason
Most people on internet forums are teens. Just not on Subsim.

We'll always be a first world nation. Just because the rest of the world is slowly catching up to America, doesn't mean that America will become the next Rwanda.

Can Godwin's law be invoked for Communism? If so, I think this discussion is over.

Remember that quote for the next 10 years. As you begin to understand the world around you, the error of that statement will become blatently evident.

No, that was called Socialism. There's a big difference.

I think that would be a bad idea. We wouldn't be able to have any discussions of American politics in General Topics.

If you can point out the spelling error, you'll get an extra point. If you don't answer I will assume that you are fake.

Cheers,

Well?
