If Mr Holland only knew how liberal arts in universities are centers of leftist identitarianism, resenting opinions and racial slandering, progressivism, and Marxism. They discovered that they could use these areas of study to further indoctrinate the youths that captured through elementary and High School. After their liberal arts degrees are earned, on loans that'll never get paid back, they'll immediately pursue a career in community organizing to eventually be groomed by political parties like the Dems and the DSA. What a jip!

Schools have no business teaching art, music or drama because those subjects mean nothing to an employer who has to make a living and earn profit. Unless you are a Hollywood type you must realize that normal people have to work for a living. Very few will pay for musicians, artists or acting but people do pay for people who are educated in something useful like mathematics, sciences, business, or marketing. There should be a special school which deals with the arts and it should be attended by those interested in learning things that probably will cause starvation in the future. Maybe one school per city ....maybe
@pbkayakyer4 жыл бұрын
While I can certainly agree that schools should FOCUS on the basics, you're absolutely wrong about art, music and drama not meaning anything to an employer. There are intangibles that are, music and drama can teach us that are absolutely essential to employers. Soft skills are so much more desirable to employers than "hard" skills. Anyone can learn to do a job, but the soft skills are much harder to teach adults. The arts can teach kids those soft skills.

I get it that he hates the arts programs were under-appreciated/under-valued vs. the sports programs, but in high school the sports programs typically bring in more revenue than the arts. Ideally you'd have both but under the circumstances, its not surprising.

"I don't think you have any appreciation for our financial problems", says one of the Board Of Trustees during the part at the meeting. Just one question; what exactly is there to appreciate in regards to the school's financial problems, especially if cutting a certain program means that certain teachers will immediately lose their jobs as a result of those said financial problems? If a certain program makes the cut, not only will it disappoint students who partake in those activities, but it will also result in teachers being placed on the unemployment line. Plus, Mr. Holland made an excellent point stating that by cutting the music program could lead to a generation of students who will not to know how to think for themselves and be forced to live by the code that most of the older generation expects them to live by. It just comes to show that most schools around the nation prefer to maintain the actual curriculum (i.e. Math, world history, etc...) and not much to teach them about Mozart or anything else in regards to the fine arts. It's all about the money, not about the students' rights to think for themselves.

I think someone like President Bush made decisions based on political clout (avenging his father with the war in iraq). He makes compelling points, but unfortunately I can't buy them. He's basically working off the premise of 'I'm evil, you're evil, they're evil, we're all evil. So what's the difference?' It makes me question who he is as a person and the people he knows.

Boy, Milton Friedman here just completely destroys Socialism's arguments. Capitalism is the natural state of all economies, from ancient barter-systems to our modern global system, Socialism by comparison is an IDEAL. It is not a natural system, and by result, it has no empirical evidence to support it. So socialists must resort to EMOTIONAL arguments, trying to pull at people's heartstrings, without realizing that Capitalism is the reason we have all of the wonderful technologies today.

It's a shame there aren't more conservatives as intelligent as this man. The GOP would maybe have a chance at forging a genuinely productive economic policy.
There were many but they are gone now
I love Sowell, but hate Beck. Regardless, if the only argument you have against taxes is that you will be undercut by places with less taxes, you have no argument. The real argument is to show that if everywhere raised taxes on the rich, it still is a bad idea because it reduces relative investment and changes resources from what people want to what a third party (that doesn't much care) thinks that they want.
Obama called it RIGHT on GM bailout & Osama bin laden.. GM is kicking ass & will invest 2 BILLION in 8 states.
@stonergeo33 Intellectuals and Society is one of the best books I've ever read. Far out-classes anything I read throughout my four years of college.
@HuggumsMcgehee Not exactly the klan but it is implied that it is the same. Jounralists on denmarks national TV are extremely biased... and you are forced to pay for it if you have something that enables you to watch (ie computer, bile phone, tv etc)...
@baroh2413 Really? The Klan? You're not exaggerating? lol That's ridiculous. I don't always agree with him, but Klansman? No.
In Denmark Glenn Beck is presented as a crazy racist who is in cahoots with the Klan... and we aren't allowed to hear what he has to say... Jon Stewart on the other hand is presented as the only intelligent man in the USA... and whenever the conservatives have successful poles the overall question raised by our media is "What did the democrats do wrong?". Thank god for the internet!
Great video. This is exactly how Obamacare will work. I think that new medicare czar is eyeing my old Uncle Harry for the "cash for clunkers" program.
Oh no Obama's not a communist, LOL.. Another CEO fired? Yes, Government Motors is a major embarassment and Obama is a communist. I will not support this company until Obama is gone, long gone.
@JML0328 Lenin used the "dictatorship of the proletariat" strategy. Those two approaches are not exactly synonymous.
What a refreshing mind. Gives us all hope to see such a bright person and with a great way to explain things.
sowell is one brain dead bimbo
Boy, Milton Friedman here just completely destroys Socialism's arguments. Capitalism is the natural state of all economies, from ancient barter-systems to our modern global system, Socialism by comparison is an IDEAL. It is not a natural system, and by result, it has no empirical evidence to support it. So socialists must resort to EMOTIONAL arguments, trying to pull at people's heartstrings, without realizing that Capitalism is the reason we have all of the wonderful technologies today.
@umrmecheman Hey my friend what's the name of that book? I'd love to read it
@blogegog Very much true. I'm a HUGE Friedman fan
I agree. People need to realize that corporate America controls the government
