[Opinions] Don't praise our educational system

We don't exactly learn poems by Robert Burns in school, it is just that I'm very interested in the old literature of England and Scotland.

But I agree with the universal health care and child care. I don't quite understand why most Americans don't want this. Of course, we pay by high taxes.

"But it’s all right now.
I learned my lesson well.
You see you can’t please everyone
So you got to please yourself."
Rick Nelson, GardenParty

"It does not become me to make myself smaller than I am." (Edith Södergran 1891-1923)
