Dec-13-2006 19:14TweetFollow @OregonNews Cartoon Strip: Nota Bene by Leonardo No. 20 - The Life and Times of Nicholas NCLBGlen Bledsoe Salem-News.comThis is the twentieth installment of the Salem-News.com original series "Nota Bene by Leonardo" by Salem cartoonist Glen Bledsoe.
(SALEM) - Many arm-chair critics of public education don't understand the difference between "private" schools and "privatized" schools. These curmudgeons who can neither spell nor punctuate are only too happy to scrap a system of education which for generations has given Americans the skills to think and to make good decisions for their families and their nation. Public education is the foundation of America's middle class. Since we have so many parallel earths at hand, let us look at a flattened world in which public education has been disbanded and replaced by a system in which lessons are served like fast food and teachers compete for test-savvy students like salesmen fighting over wealthy clients. This world could well be our own. Behold "The Life and TImes of Nicholas NCLB." Leonardo of Salem is a writer and artist who focuses on issues local, national and international, on culture, education, and the politics of parallel worlds.
