ParticipantLet’s also recognize that education at all levels is becoming an increasingly inhospitable place for boys and men. Men make up a smaller and smaller proportion of K-12 teachers, a real tragedy for the increasing number of boys without a father at home who need a male role model.
Schools of Education in our universities are notoriously run by tenured, ultra-liberal, anti-capitalist and pro-big government types. They turn out similarly-minded graduates to indoctrinate our public school students. Traditional male roles as risk-takers, entrepreneurs, defenders of the family, etc., are discouraged. Students are told to sit still and be quiet, which is far easier for girls than boys. Even the drop-off in recess times at schools hurts boys more, as they need to blow off steam by running around during part of each day in order to learn better. Girls sit still and are more articulate at an earlier age than boys, so are often shown preference by teachers.June 21, 2010 at 4:09 PM in reply to: OT: “The End of Men”: Women dominating college/New Jobs, can’t find marriageable prospects #568590EconProf

ParticipantI saw the whole Meredith Whitney segment this morning on MSNBC and expect (and hope) it will become a You Tube item.
She has an incredible grasp of the financial markets, and has a prescient forecasting record as regards housing, banks, and the economy.June 21, 2010 at 2:43 PM in reply to: Meredith Whitney: “No Doubt We Have Entered A Double-Dip For Housing” #568500EconProf

ParticipantBriansd1: You have an uncanny knack for misinterpretation.
To suggest that President Carter was responsible for the 1982 & onward booming economy is to truely be deluded by your own biases.
Carter appointed tight-money, high-interest-rate Volcker only because he was forced to act tough in the face of spiraling inflation he helped foster. It went against every liberal instinct in his populist body. Reagan happily kept Volcker on, pushed through supply-side tax cuts, which eventually (their full implementation was delayed by Congress) spurred the economy into perhaps the biggest growth spurt our economy had since WWII.
Carter’s best contribution was to be defeated in the 1980 election. -
