Maybe we should look at the Singapore model.
On the other hand, you won’t find Juggalos in Sinapore. Can we trust Americans to make their own decisions?

What would be do with all the unemployed navigators then? We’ d all be looking for at the big dipper.
There is an app for that!

LOL ‘Singapore Juggalos’ after about the second cane-ing, that crap would cease.
God I hate my supervisor. I would like to go find some juggalos and drop them off at his house with spray paint and a propane torch.

I think we just came up with a great reality TV concept. I’ve had occasional contact with a woman who lives in Singapore that gives me insights into how competitive the culture is and how there is no tolerance for the likes of Juggalos. This would be a lot more interesting than watching people lose weight.
LOL , Yes that is a great Idea Art. Ratings will be through the roof!

I have familiarity with the homeschooling community. Many of them use ‘Singapore Math’ for their math curriculum (it is the actual program used in Singapore’s school system). Why do they use it? Because it is a much better and more challenging approach than our self-esteem based math here in the USA. (for example their 5th and 6th grade math courses cover the concepts covered by ‘advanced’ American students in 9th-10th grade of public schools).
