Teaching Government in Schools

Name: CCFreak2K !mgsA1X/tJA 2005-09-23 2:35

Since it's my senior year of high school, the state of California (pause for laughter) has made it manditory for me to attend a Government/Economics class.  While this wouldn't be a problem (I love to hear people bitch about the world and the people who run it, as long as they have a valid arguement), the teacher I have is EXTREMELY left.  While this also wouldn't pose a problem normally, he's always injecting his left views into any debates that occur.

The bottom line?  The only teachers that should be teaching Government should be ones that can be on both sides of the fence equally (at least most of the time).

Discuss.

Unfortunately, academia has largely devolved into mutual intellectual masturbation. Universities want to prove they're "tolerant" and "diverse," so kooks like Ward Churchill get tenured jobs. Its severe bent to the Left in recent times is probably just a result of self-reinforcing views in faculty. And the fact that most hardcore leftists are arrogant, lazy sacks of shit--a perfect fit for a cushy, guaranteed job where you're constantly reaffirmed in your intellectual superiority.
