Dear Editor,
Do I understand this correctly?
When students don’t learn properly, it is the teachers’ faults, is it? Even when their parents are the first generation immigrants, hence often academically disadvantaged? to help with the homework?
So instead of assisting teachers, students and parents, a certain Rhode Island school district administration has decided to fire all teachers?
Hmmm, I wonder how many will apply for the teaching job for the coming school year—probably zero!
Now let’s apply this logic to the Nation’s Capitol. Fire all Senators and Representatives! Why not?
Consider a plumber or an obstetrician faced with a leak or a woman in labor. they have to be there to do the job well.
In comparison, it appears all our elected Congress members do is bicker, just like spoiled brats!
When Dems have a good idea, GOP opposes, and vice versa, for so long!
GM, Ford and Toyota are recalling their defective products. The same should also apply to Washington, DC!
