Re: DC Central Kitchen; Stadium Groundbreaking
Date Edited: 07 May 2006 09:22:31 PM
Just because an institution like a school is a non-profit organization that doesn't directly return funds to the city that funds it DOES NOT mean that therefore the city gets nothing financially out if it. If McDonald's wants to hire workers in DC, and none of the prospective workers know how to read, write, speak, understand english, or do basic math, then McDonald's won't hire anyone in DC. The schooling of the prospective workers is what allows them to become workers who then pay taxes back to the city?
GET IT? FINALLY? AM I GETTING THAARRRUUUU TO YOU ALVA!!!???!!!
The same goes with the brain surgeon argument. Even if the city doesn't fund medical schools, how in the hell are people going to go to medical school without any prior schooling in elementary subjects such as reading, writing arithmetic, basic science, etc????
Look, this is an argument. You made an "argument." It's completely bogus. You lost. Get over it.
I would advise you to stop, sit down, and THINK before you write down any kind of response or worse, pull any levers in a voting booth.

Re: Re: DC Central Kitchen; Stadium Groundbreaking
your points do indeed have merit, but are a bit off target. you seem to not know much about stats here in dc. also, perhaps you don't realize that we already fund schols and they already exist. Also, we are continuing to close schools mainly because of a drop in student age population. and oh, we're losing population in general so most of our hiring is in attempt to bring people from the outside. and we spend more per student than nearly any other place in the country. your answers ar erroneous.
i'm sure you don't see that, but you are at least quite good with the insults. well played. i especially like the "alva" part. that was cute.
it's a shame that you think it is such a simple logic problem. You have no sense of the scope of the facts, as is made obvious by your simpleton replies, and your childish manner of delivery.
you use wit to mask your ignorance of the situation.
sad, really.
