Math problems are a problem for job-seekers, employers say

151. you'd be wrong, because mr hahn of general plastics says:

"eric stated that without this partnership, general plastics wouldn't be poised to come out of this recession. this training program with tcc and recruiting strategy with business connection have all come together FOR THE MOST WELL-SKILLED WORKFORCE WE'VE EVER HAD."

General plastics gets cheap labor via a government-funded 'training' program for community college students and keeps the ones they like.

Companies that like cheap labor donate to politicians who will give them cheap labor. Duh.

Democrats like cheap labor too. They just go about it a different way from republican who like right to work laws and no minimum wage.

Both democrats and republicans will tell you how stupid american students are -- in pursuit of their agendas. They'll also tell you charter schools are improving education and what education needs is 'competition'. THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT'S TRUE, and that's why you're a parrot -- because you take it all at face value.

Timber companies and behind the scenes timber politics have a hell of a lot to do with power in this state, and what 'company lines' get publicized. But you take everything at face value, so no point in talking to you.

The National Assessment of Educational Progress (NAEP) is the largest continuing and nationally representative assessment of what American students know and can do in core subjects... NAEP is a trusted resource and has been providing valid and reliable data on student performance since 1969.

NAEP uses a carefully designed sampling procedure that allows the assessment to be representative of the geographical, racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic diversity of the schools and students in the United States. Since NAEP assessments are administered uniformly to all participating students using the same test booklets and identical procedures across the nation, NAEP results serve as a common metric for states and the urban districts that participate in the assessment.

And here's what those tests show since 1970 regarding math & science:




Scores are basically unchanged since 1969 despite there being a poorer, less white, and more non-native demographic in schools than was the case then.

You don't know what the fuck you're talking about.
