Company bans homeschooled workers

Mmm hmmm.

Ad Hominem, don't like the message, attack the messenger, typical of liberals that hate facts and truth!

And you believe everything from the left wing propaganda machine. Do you think liberals want to admit that homeschooling is superior to their indoctrination system?

On the other post, I provided quotes from the Department of Education, are they right wing too?

At least I had enough brains to look for actual results instead of just blindly blithering bull that is nothing more than your libtarded brainwashed opinion. JeffM is also a liberal but is smart enough to admit the truth of the data.

In Chicago, the public schools suck, not even all of them have air conditioning. They also have a huge budget problem - how can they expect to teach kids to balance their own checkbook when the school district can't even balance it's own budget?

Not all of them have air conditioning in your public schools? Chicago is not in a desert. It is right by Lake Michigan. It is nicknamed "the Windy City". Can't they open the windows? A school is not a hotel, you know. We don't have air conditioning in our schools in Toronto. Toronto in right beside Lake Ontario, another one of the Great Lakes.

Toronto is a hotbed for Muzzie sleeper cells.

Maybe the cold weather makes them angrier...

This is a detriment in Chicago? I don't remember ever being in a school with air conditioning. Except in early September and perhaps the latter part of May you hoped the heating system was in good repair.

Once again I am shaken to my roots by having to agree with Wannabe. U've never even lived in a place with air conditioning, let alone having it in school. Until they built the new Student Union, it did make the conputer center popular. The IBM 360 had to be cooled, not the students.

Much the same, here. Some of the schools near me don't even have windows which open.

I've got AC, but only use it a couple weeks a year.

No, only about 25 years. Some of that time was in Why, AZ although I admit I usually headed for high country this time of year when it started to get close to the 100's during the day. Most of my life has been spent well north of the 42nd parallel. Move up to Yreka and you might have a different take on the necessity for air conditioning.

The southeast is where I've appreciated air conditioning. I don't have gills and don't really like 120% humidity. It's the old cliche but I don't mind dry heat as long as I can stay hydrated.

The problem with not having air conditioning in Chicago schools is because the humidity is so bad here in the warmer months. It definitely can get hot also (90s is common) but the killer is humidity. Opening the windows to let in more humidity does not help. Living on a great lake in the heat which contributes to humidity also does not help.

The issue is the humidity more than the heat.

Air conditioning in Chicago schools is a luxury, not a necessity. Now back to your question up there: "how can they expect to teach kids to balance their own checkbook when the school district can't even balance it's own budget?"

Not wasting money on air-conditioners and electricity bills is balancing their own budget right there.

Years ago they came up with this wonderful plan, the lottery would help fund the schools. They should have plenty of money for A/C and solid gold door knobs. Wonder why that didn't work? Seems the only ones getting rich and living the "American Dream" are the politicians that are breaking the backs of the taxpayers.

Until the bills start to come in for mold and mildew damage.

Fuck off, canucklehead.

You do realize that the city and many of its building easily pre-date AC units, but ftmp not ceiling fans...

You moron.

Do you mean that to say you cannot do without AC there?

If so, I wonder (I must) how the area was originally settled and populated... I guess they must've had HVAC in their wagons and houses back then, too, huh?

I've spent some considerable time in New Mexico. The temperature was often over 105F; I've seen it 15F hotter while I was there. The humidity was low. We were hot, but survived, so long as there was water and shade.

Wanna compare humidity between your hot desert, and my hot swamp?

(Think about how the body cools itself).

Again, Gunner, there's a difference between being stranded in the pit of Death Valley, with no water, no shade, and no hope of finding either, and the 'normal hot' of the arid west, where with water and shade you do fine, if not comfortably.

I trained in Nevada. It ain't fun. It's not 'instant death', either.

What about our boys in the mideast?
