Well if the socialists have their way you won't get Crunch n Munch at all Isaac Send a noteboard - 06/05/2011 11:05:55 PM
You'll only be able to get some Crunch n Much with Tofu covered in government issue sugar-free caramel at Stalinmart, which has really long lines at the checkouts.

If your plan makes that happen, I'll get behind it.


Fortuitously the CEO of the company that makes crunch n munch is a Republican donor, so you may rest assured the GOP firmly supports your right to purchase and consume Crunch n Munch™, FiddleFaddle™, JiffyPop™, Reddi-Wip™, Snackpack Puddings™, Slim Jims™, and other proud American™ snack foods. So remember, a vote for Republicans is a vote for Crunch n Munch with Almonds, as well as top of the line capitalist healthcare for any dental or diabetic concerns which may conceivably arise from consumption there of.

If Supermarkets Were Like Public Schools - trzaska2000 - 06/05/2011 05:05:33 AM 1080 Views
the obvious solution is to just do away with public education in general moondog - 06/05/2011 06:41:58 AM 507 Views
If groceries were like education... the analogy would be apt. But they aren't, and it isn't. Tim - 06/05/2011 09:40:37 AM 670 Views

I don't see your point there. The eating of groceries also goes on for many years – all one's life. *NM* Tim - 06/05/2011 01:42:38 PM 205 Views
Yes, but the effects of not having any are seen within days Floffe - 06/05/2011 05:29:16 PM 476 Views
I see. Yes, that's another reason why it's easy to sit back and do nothing until it's too late. Tim - 06/05/2011 06:40:03 PM 474 Views
Well said Tim. *NM* heartbreak - 06/05/2011 01:48:09 PM 214 Views
Very narrow-minded - the point is, private is better than public..... trzaska2000 - 06/05/2011 02:47:39 PM 492 Views
Out of curiosity, how do you define "Narrow-minded?" *NM* Dannymac - 06/05/2011 02:54:18 PM 217 Views
Yup, you make several important points. nossy - 06/05/2011 04:02:09 PM 588 Views
so the rest of should be forced to send our kids to bad schools to keep a level playing field? *NM* random thoughts - 06/05/2011 05:24:23 PM 198 Views
I have said nothing of the sort, and never would. Tim - 06/05/2011 06:31:48 PM 504 Views
That is exactly what you said.....and my other reply to you proves..... trzaska2000 - 06/05/2011 10:05:40 PM 502 Views
Fair enough on the second point (almost) – correction duly edited in. Tim - 06/05/2011 10:16:39 PM 507 Views
Good points *NM* Skeeve the Great - 06/05/2011 06:27:11 PM 244 Views
That's a rather big non-sequitur there, don't you think? Legolas - 06/05/2011 06:36:51 PM 513 Views
If the state doesn't pay for schools, what happens to children whose parents have no money? Tim - 06/05/2011 10:25:48 PM 507 Views
Other ways this analogy fails: Dreaded Anomaly - 07/05/2011 12:37:36 AM 458 Views
Since we are on the topic of education, I find this amazing: heartbreak - 06/05/2011 02:07:44 PM 754 Views
That is very cool. Thanks for sharing that. *NM* Nate - 06/05/2011 06:31:36 PM 214 Views
That is very, very cool. Chas - 06/05/2011 10:43:49 PM 523 Views
More relevantly, what would schools be like if they were run like supermarkets? *NM* Macharius - 06/05/2011 02:27:49 PM 202 Views
Bad schools would close, good ones would get more students - sounds fine to me! *NM* trzaska2000 - 06/05/2011 02:49:30 PM 195 Views
spoken like someone who has no idea what it takes to run a "good school" *NM* moondog - 06/05/2011 04:17:12 PM 195 Views
Then you have half as many schools. So not much scope for choice any more. Tim - 06/05/2011 06:44:26 PM 488 Views
most of your arguements are against public education being financed by property taxes *NM* Roland00 - 06/05/2011 02:33:41 PM 239 Views
And the forced attendence by where you live instead of giving parents a choice. *NM* trzaska2000 - 06/05/2011 02:50:23 PM 216 Views
Parents should absolutely have free choice in schools. Legolas - 06/05/2011 06:41:10 PM 540 Views
Look, I just want a store that carries Crunch n Munch with Almonds. TaskmasterJack - 06/05/2011 09:05:23 PM 504 Views
Well if the socialists have their way you won't get Crunch n Munch at all Isaac - 06/05/2011 11:05:55 PM 472 Views
