Those views sound a good bit like mine.

You sound like a social libertarian and fiscal conservative.
I looked up social libertarian and, looking at their opinions, they seem to agree with most of mine. Looking at Fiscal conservatism, I suppose I agree with the idea of the government spending as little as possible. The current value of the national debt is rediculous.
I also support higher education standards. They should make education more competitive, like sports. (class rankings, rewards/benefits for doing well). Would make kids strive to do better. Nothing breeds excellence like competition.
How about kids with learning disabilities?
Interesting point; maybe as legoman666 suggested, special schools.
If you want to make schools more like a capitalist economy, where staying competitive is critical, well, in the economy there isn't always special treatment.....oh never mind. I guess not. I was thinking that there isn't special treatment for certain businesses - they just go out of business. But I scratched that when I thought of entire industries which are subsidized by the government, or which receive government bail-outs.
For the most part though, if you don't stay competitive, yes, you will fall behind and go out of business. Those with learning disabilities could receive a metaphoric subsidy from the government.
But the rest would compete, and strive to be the best. Those who demonstrate exceptional performance (gifted students) should be singled out so that their talents could be
properly nurtured, for a change.

A very sore donkey or a disappointed elephant.
