Finland has one of the best educational systems in the world, it used to be one of the worst. Finland changed their system in four years.
I feel that, unless we become a world power in education, we will become just another 3rd world country.
Note: Many Finnish children speak 3 to 5 languages.

Before Ted Kennedy's disaster of an immigration change in the 1960s, America got a lot of immigrants from successful nations in western Europe.
Today, there are 330 million people in America, and many new legal immigrants (not to mention the illegal ones) have zero interest in -- or respect for -- America's culture and laws.
Ending the monopoly of the public teacher unions, and allowing vouchers, would be a great start to renewing the wasteland of education.

Finland had a population of 4.4 million in 1960....
Today Finland has a population of 5.5 million....
That makes it easy to control the quality of life......and education.

So what do you have planned for Obama?
Your inbred brother "Intrepid" gets upset about those kind of threats, veiled or otherwise.

What did you think you meant by "Only speak well of the dead!" ?
I would assume "Intrepid" is already reporting you to the authorities.

As it happens, I have lived in Germany and am fairly fluent.
Of course, in any language, Grog is a leftist dope.
