Tim, Hard currency has always been considered to be precious metals, or in some cases gems. When ever the American government needs more money, they just print some more paper, which gives a false appearance that it has the same worth it had before the addition. There isn't enough gold in Fort Knox to last over a few days if the rest of the world insists upon hard currency. That would mean bankruptcy.

Yes, the teaching situation is bad now, and with the kinds of people that decide to be teachers, and the constant adverse doings of the NEA, are going to make it worse. Kids are getting passed up a grade just because they are a nuisance and they want to be rid of them. Many cases of tampering with the SATs have been found and documented. How can that get better, or even hold it's ground?
