  2. There were a lot of powerful but truthful facts. The ones that got me the most was money. Everything involving money. Its pretty much what makes our world go round. Yet, things like laptops cost as much as some people will make in a year. Thats barley enough to feed one person. I think its sad how some people in our world can be so greedy. Our world should have to share everything. We are all human beings, and we shouldnt be living in poverty when some people are incredibly rich.
    Also, tuition for kids costs so much these years. And our government encourages us to go to college or university, yet it is made so expensive. No matter what, almsot everyone going to post secondary education will have some sort of debts to pay. Its discouraging those without money.
    Its also incredible how much these people waste their time on things like facebook, or skip school that costs them an incredible amount of money. I think its amazing that some people would die for an education like that, and people jsut waste it.
    One thing is the facts about what we learn. 26% of it is relevant to their career. A lot of things we learn are not relevant. But its not just about the content. It is teaching us things like disipline, punctuation, etc. Like, a lot of thigns I learn in math will not be relevant to my job, but I did learn how important it is to not get behind in work, and how important it is to do your work.
    Lastly, one small point bugging me. These students, for a project, wrote on walls and chairs with what looks like marker and maybe a bit of pencil. Thats...vandalisim. I hope that marker washed off.
