Pryderi primitive gets an F

My response to my republican brother and the "Genius Teacher"
 
the link to the email my brother sent me about Obama's socialism being a failure can be found here:
http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.ph...

Here is my response:

An economics professor at a local college made a statement that
he had never failed a single student before, but had once failed an
entire class. That class had insisted that Obama's socialism worked
and that no one would be poor and no one would be rich, a great
equalizer. The professor then said, "OK, we will have an experiment
in this class on Obama's plan".. All grades would be averaged
and everyone would receive the same grade.

Prior to the experiment in socialism, the class average grade was a C.
Realizing that in order for everyone to succeed they would have to work together,
the best students offered to help fellow classmates that were struggling.
The resulting study groups increased everyone's morale and forged new friendships.

The first test after the experiment began showed that the class average grade improved to a B!
Although the A students weren't thrilled with the grade, they were impressed by the impact
they had made on improving the class's grade! The poorer students were feeling better
about themselves, were grateful for the help they had received and vowed to do even
better on the next test!

When the second test approached, the entire class studied voraciously and even came
up with their own self-tests based on the material in each chapter! The entire class
pulled together as one, they had vowed that no classmate would lag behind.
They worked with the coordinated dedication of a seasoned military unit!

People working together can not only create a better world, but improve individuals as well!

And if that were true, the USSR would still be going stong today and North Korea would be a first rate country.

POW!!!  Your whole premise was just destroyed in only 22 words.  You fail.

5. I'm thinking of forwarding the response I created to all my right-wing "friends"

Please, do.  They could use the laughs.

9. Is there a LW think tank that I could intern for? :P

Please, do.  Everyone could use the laughs.

For obvious reasons, the words "LW" and "think" shouldn't be in the same sentence.

Or the same paragraph.

Or on the same page.

Or in the same book.

That's just frickin' stupid and an obvious lie. We all know good and well there are folks that just will not work and will be happy to let others do the work and they'll just happily accept their "c."

Well, I'm going to send it around to all my "right wing" friends, too.   But for different reasons than Pry thinks.  Laughter is good for the soul, and ones health, so I like to spread about a good chuckle.  When I started reading through that dumb-as-shit OP, I groaned and laughed at the same time.  It is the perfect little embodiment of feel-good liberal lefty thinking, isn't it?  I hope that idiot learns a hard lesson one day, that human nature is not like he imagines it in his empty gourd.

Maybe the answer's in the thread, but what the Hell is the connection between 'Failing everyone in the class' and then launching into a story about how all of them ended up somewhere in the upper B/low A range together?  Or was that supposed to mean he had failed to instruct them as he intended as opposed to giving them failing grades (Though the latter is clearly the meaning in context)?

The DUmmy must have decided that they didn't like the original premise (the entire class failing) so in his fairy tale land, the lazy students would work hard because their self-esteem was boosted by a grade they hadn't earned  :whatever:  But, he neglected to change the original premise after the fairy tale was written.

Way back once the now departed TNO insisted that a society would elevate itself morality wise when it saw the detrimental affects of no moral code.
When pressed to show examples in life or history of course there were none.

This is just another offshoot of leftist utopian dreaming.

What a tool! Obviously hasn't studied history or socialist/communist countries before. There is always a rich/privileged class. When the masses are equal the politicians are the wealthy on the backs of their hard working people. Does anyone really believe the the Russian Politburo, Castro, Mao lived like the peasants or that Obama would suddenly give up party night and Wagu beef to share the misery of the masses? Hell no, he'd think he'd earned it for creating such equal misery.
