A voucher system will give these kids a chance to succeed. The public schools in the slums the children are forced to go to,because parents can't afford to send them to better schools. If they had a voucher system they can afford to send them to a school with a better crowd and will teach them the way they want. Or better yet they can just take that money and go to a class filled with 10 people and learn twice as much and it makes them happy.

Just to think how TRULY liberal and cutting-edge (not prog-commie and banal) PBS was back in the 80's...

Now it truly sucks.

I imagine that at least one of those death threats aimed at Dr. Williams came from Bill Moyers. To think that PBS actually aired a show about the failure of the Great Society, and hosted by none other than the great Dr. Walter E. Williams! Talk about having a weak moment; Moyers must have been chewing on a rug and climbing up a drape (like another famous Leftist from history).

Increases in population have a generally neutral effect. An increasing population means an increase in the labour force. One of the few ways for a country to increase its potential GDP (i.e. the level it could work at) is with an increase in the quantity of the factors of production; however, this does not increase GDP per capita (being a measure of living standards). Only with a lack of technological innovation is there a problem if ONLY labour increases (because the law of diminishing returns)

Essentially, you're wrong. There's plenty of room for development in the US, but because of regulations and the welfare state, there is no way to expand or innovate. And giving to charity does not necessarily make you a good person if you're just giving to make yourself feel like a self-righteous wad.
Another reason for the failing quality of teachers as you mentioned is because of the teachers union. It is nearly impossible to fire a teacher for incompetence, or even sexual harassment.

please. as population increases, the resources of the world increase. gaining population is a good thing, provided that you have a free society. lets put the blame where it belongs. overpopulation is not the issue, it merely points out the issue.

as Walter Block would say "If it moves, privatize it. If it doesn't move, privatize it"
