America has a Proud Tradition of Volunteerism

Nothing says  America like the fading smoke from a fire being extinguished by a volunteer fire department.  A group of honest men, and maybe even strong women, working together to protect and help the community.  They don't want to take advantage of the taxpayer and rip off the coffers of our treasury, they just want to help--to put out the fire.  This country was founded on volunteerism.  There is no reason why or schools shouldn't be equipped with volunteer teachers.

If only volunteeer teachers worked in our schools, then we would have teachers who want to teach, not just public employees acting as parasites, sucking ever-increasing taxes from the good citizens of America so they can drive expensive Hummers and go to five star restaurants in Paris, France during their time off in the summer months.

I have had some bad teachers in my day and let me tell you this:  I don't think I learned anything from them; everything I know, I learned in church or I taught myself!

A better country begins with the firing of all the teachers and the implementation of a totally volunteer teacher force.  This move might increase unemployment for a while, but Obama's already screwing up the economy and besides, maybe some of those unemployed teachers will use their free time to step up and take some positions as volunteer teachers.  If they really care about the kids, then they will do that exactly.

God bless America and lets raise the standards at our schools as we drop taxes.  When it all comes down to it isn't it, after all, about the kids?
