Keep up the good work Mr. Maher. Now that it's uncommon, your common sense opinions, dialogue and humor are even more appreciated...at least by this viewer!

[@justgivemethetruth]

By common sense opinions, do you mean ignorant and uninformed? I agree .... Support Ukraine, or not, the US had been working for over a decades to bring war to that country ( because our best diplomats and generals have been warning against it for a decade, or more in some cases ) in order to weaken Russia. What kind of ally is America when we bring such destruction to a country like Ukraine? And what kind of government when they take over $100 billion dollars of taxpayer money and devote it to this covert war? The House of Representatives in Congress is supposed to represent the people in the spending of money - all money bills originate in the House. What are they doing? Is this democracy? And where is the press in any of this that is supposed to inform Americans about what the government is doing? First we sent in the State Dept., Victoria Nuland, and the CIA, to install Victor Yushenko who Ukraine hated and immediatedly voted out. Then we went in money and strategists to depose Victor Yanukovych because he wanted Ukraine to strike a balance between the EU and Russia. We used oligarchs and the Ukrainian media to whip up anger against him, and he was run out of the country violently, and then install Pedro Poroshenko as Ukraine's President - who began the war against ethnic Russians in the Donbas, and repression Russian and elevating former Nazis with celebrations and statues. Then came Zelensky, who got elected because he promised to end the violence in the Donbas - but he did not do that, and continued bringing in American weapons and advisors, and also continued repressing ethic Russians and even stepped up the violence against them on the border of the Donbas, breaking his promise, and putting his country and people in danger. Check the records of the OSCE the neutral entity that tracked violence and shelling in the Donbas, and how the incidence of shelling last year at this time increased geometrically - until the Russians took action. All those years the Russians were trying to come to some kind of peace agreement - which the US ignored or cancelled. Even after the war started Ukraine and Russia were working out a negotiation and the US had Boris Johnson of the UK go to Turkey where this negotiation was happening and threaten Ukraine in order to end the negotiation and continue the war. The Ukrainian war has destroyed Urkaine, and killed Ukrainians, and crippled the civil economies of Europe, and brought massive inflation to the US, and hunger to the Third World. Nance is a tool, and Bill Maher seems to have no clue about any of this. OR, maybe he does and he is parroting the CIA line because that is what American media networks have to do to stay in business.

It's so fascinating to me that comedians are the ones bringing more non-partisan discourse and debate on subjects like this than mainstream media outlets. Granted, there's far too many times to count that Maher's guests only spat out partisan-editorialized opinion. This was a refreshing conversation to listen to that seemed less like a tribally motivated character argument and more of a conversation about the actual issues being asked about.

[@lpk6372]

Then start with facts and not what side they are on... Which person has stated facts that you can look up and if they directed you to them. Fox news and the like use tribalism to push ideas that FEEL good to you but aren't truthful. I use them not because I'm a democratic but because FACTUALLY they aren't a news organization their most popular programs are opinion shows who when faced with law suits claim no reasonable person would believe them. This should not be the behavior of a news organization and this why fox news labels it self entertainment.

@@vallee7966 That is what Bernie Sanders has been saying for years. I agree, even though l have a graduate degree from college. I am more hesitant to recommend these on-line degrees. They are very expensive, give an AA degree, but it is truly so specialized without the exposure to all the subjects one gets in a 2 year AA at a real school, that l don't think there should be a degree awarded. Trade schools, which are a great way to learn and prepare for a job, are the equivalent. Some people (in my experience) seem to think an AA obtained in this way is more equivalent to a PhD because it is current. It definitely is not.

[@justgivemethetruth]

What about free trade school for a job in industry? Just because you would not have benefited doesn't mean the vast majority of Americans would not, and America definitely needs education - we are dead last in education in the developed world - how do you think that can be? Is it because Americans are stupid, or because our leaders no long want an educated population when they can drain the rest of the world of their talent, weaken other countries, and weaken democracy here by making Americans stupid useless eaters as they say?

[@elizabethalexander6528]

We have been in an education crisis for the last 30 years.

[@Games_and_Music]

Definitely, i am 39 and i always felt like i was in the middle of some shift. Not just because of the internet and mobile phones (got my 1st one when i was 15 in 1998, a giant beeping brick with 1 line of display), but also because people were changing around me. As i was leaving school, it really felt like i was one of the last of an era, because now everything is digital and ... different. My elementary school had only 1 computer, running some pre-Windows 95 DOS on it, my highschool had more, but it was still early stages, and mostly primitive Windows 95 programs, that in itself is fine, things change. But when i was a kid, and addicted to playing GameBoy, i still had to keep it at home when going to school, because it was going to be a distraction. That has changed, and now everyone is having their phones in class. Teachers used to demand that you at least turn your sound off, and when you were distracted by your phone, the teacher would take it for that class, good luck trying that today.. Apparently, the old system didn't work, where in times of emergency, a parent would call up school and a receptionist/janitor would go up to the class and either pass on the message or take you out of class. Apparently, kids are too important and busy with private stuff, that they prioritize it over school. Yeah right, i remember school being boring, sure, you'll do anything for a distraction, but there's no more pushback on it from the schools, so it's just running rampant. Walking around and having conversations on your mobile phone used to be a show-off thing, "look at me being popular", but that has now become a lifestyle, and the tagline remained the same "look at me being popular", i think it is just damaging the overall etiquette, or i don't know, public respect or civilized manner of behaving when out in public. I mean, nowadays it's easier to even fake a conversation, put some Apple products in your ears and start talking. Social awkwardness is the new cool, and you're weird if you can have normal in-person conversations with people, or can stay focused on a topic for more than a minute. This used to be puberty stuff, but it's still going on. To me it became first known as the "Angst" of Gen X, but it might've also been a continuation of the Bomb threat for the Boomers, so i don't think that that has really gone away, but with each generation it shifts into these weird mental things. I mean, in the 90s, the kids that were kinda without identity used to be called "alto", and listened mostly to Korn, Limp Bizkit, Marilyn Manson etc., but now a lot of those kind of lost people are getting all kinds of weird surgeries... Somehow the identitycrisis became a physical thing, and i'm sure it is also a phase that will pass. People say that complaining about the youth goes back millennia, but i do think that things are getting worse over time. And sure, things go in cycles, we might be having reached _that_ part of the cycle, again. What also happens in history is when uneasy times keep lingering, it will lead to a climax at some point.. So, be careful when you're out picking historical cherries. Either way, where are the days where school was just school, and your parents accepted the judgement of the teachers (mostly)? School is boring and outdated, i agree, but it was the next best thing to get some discipline, aside from Unlce Sam. I was lucky to not have had the obligated conscription, it was abolished a few years before i turned 18. But, looking at people and kids today... i might not be fully against bringing back conscription again, only just to get some discipline into some people, when schools fail to do so. But yeah, then there's the problem of WHAT the kids are getting taught at schools.. Gee, gotta love humans!

[@jeremyserwer2586]

Yes because we are only rewarding those kids at the the top with good education. This is CLASS WAR 101, to the richest go all the spoils.

"In the midst of a public education crisis" is an understatement and not something new. The public school system in the United States has been broken for a long time. I graduated HS in 1970, and sometime after that everything went to hell, starting with discipline and RESPECT. A big chunk of the rest of the world is already way ahead of Americans. I live in Italy now and tutor kids in English. I could list the many differences from respect to academics, but suffice it to say, they are VAST.

[@alanb443]

I'm an educator who stopped teaching in the US and now teaches overseas. American education began to decline when politicians started enacting laws overseeing education. The vast majority of my colleagues just want to be left alone to do the job they were trained to do. It really started in the 70s with the passage of IDEA and schools have been in decline ever. Political interference along with cultural apathy towards education are your reasons for the decline. I teach in China and i face more restrictions now in the USA at what I can teach than i do in China. NCLB was a complete disaster, the GOP complains about teaching standards but they brought them in. It's just getting worse because everyone thinks they are an expert on everything and interfere with people who know how to do it. How do you improve education, keep politics out of the classroom is a good start. Pay teachers fairly and you will attract more people into the profession. Train them properly, give them the tools they need and let them do what they are trained to do. Everything is bad because we've politicized everything. I'll never teach in another USA school because you're just a babysitter and a political pawn.

[@jeremyserwer2586]

We don't really invest in future generations or do a lot of preventative methods with youth here in the US. We do a lot of punitive--by expanding our juvenile detention and more punishment based programs. I know as I worked with at risk youth in the US in multiple states from the mid 90's until 2010. If [punishment is a way to teach respect it's really not working on our youth.

We also discovered that we are not forced under any government mandates like core math and she got to take courses that were not available in our local public school. It’s worth it to us.

Currently she's working on fractions and since my dad was a carpenter, we measured everything in fractions.

I remember in the early 00's wondering what this coddling parenting culture would create... where kids never go outside, and parents schedule "play dates" for them... in a sense they didn't turn out as bad as I feared, and in another sense they're so much worse than I imagined.

The conservatives took that away gave it all to the top. The wife went to work and to many of the kids were raised by the streets! Name me one conservative that spent less than the previous liberal. Now when a government protects its secrets more than the truth it cannot possibly govern by rule of law!

If it’s going to come up at all, maybe don’t just gloss over it with, “oh but we did give up there.” Is that what we’re going to say about Afghanistan too someday? Soldiers laid down there lives in that bullshit war. Not their fault and not that of the people back home. 100% the fault of our political and military leadership. That era of veterans should not ever be forgotten about or glossed over. They’ve been shafted enough as it is.

Afghan I could understand why we went in there but we didn't need to stay or nation build like we did. The truth imo is that Congress did the right thing by saying he al queda isn't a country so we can't be declaring war on countries just cause they are there we can give the president limited authority to go in countries proven to have heavy terrorist ties and strike at these terror organizations. But what did the Republican president do use this as a chance to invade Iraq with bogus WMD claims then try and build democracies in places without the people's backing... I was doomed to fail. We had a chance accepting the Talibans surrender and making rules they must follow or you know we go in start teaching their women and showing the afghan people they could have better lives. This is how it should have been done.

A kid with brains will self train, but the average kid will do wha his/her phone tells her to do going forward.

[@chuckyskunk]

I think the only way to fix it is for value to be placed on education again. Not sure how we would go about that. The friends and family I have who are or have been teachers say that dealing with behavior problems takes up an immense amount of their time and almost no one shows up to parent/teacher conferences.

[@deborahfreedman333]

The problem is teacher pay sucks, and anyone with any real intelligence goes into something more lucrative, or at least mentally challenging. I only sent my kids to school for the social experience, and taught them reading, math, science, and history at home. The number of times, that I was blown away by the sheer stupidity, of those who pass as educators, really was upsetting. When I first sent my older girl to school, I was in grad school, and took time out of my studies, to go to the parent-teacher conference, where I was told, "Rebecca talks real good." To which I responded, "Yes, she speaks rather well." And the dummy didn't know she'd been corrected. Another time, when I asked the point of some of the school activities, I was told "I'm trying to make math fun." This shocked me, and I blurted out, "But, math is already fun, this is just pointless and distracting." My disappointment, in the intellectual caliber of teachers continued into their high school, when I had to correct the misconceptions their math teachers gave them, and show them how to do stoichiometry in chemistry. Teachers should have degrees in the fields they teach, in high school at least, as a degree in education means nothing. If we want better educations, for our children, we need to pay teachers better, and weed out the morons. But, I suspect the morons account for 90%.

[@shannonbrice8012]

I think the problem is basics are no longer taught. Reading is now based on "sight words" instead of phonetics, math fundamentals are no longer taught. The consensus is kids will just have calculators. They do not know how to use a dictionary or thesaurus. Spelling went out the window and as long it is "close enough" it counts. They don't teach cursive anymore or analog time. I don't fault the teachers for these things, it is the people in power making the curriculum.

As far as free college is concerned, if your gonna increase the plates on the table, then increase the variety of whats on each plate; like adding Boces type programs. They too cost a fortune these days. I know folks that spent over 20 thousand to be have stylists, to name just one example. We're not all cut from the same clothe. We need blue color workers as much as white. Anyway, great panel, all super curious, farely open thinkers, which makes for great debate.

Bringing back shop in high school is much needed. I'm a mechanic and the kids the dealership are hiring have no clue. They're just guys that want to play on their phones all day and not learn how to work on vehicles.

@@christhomson7669 I am seeing kids wanting to be on their phones all day working every time. I feel like they need to start locking them up in a locker like they make the women lock up their purses in a locker when they’re working at TJ Maxx in target or Walmart.

@@christhomson7669 why do you think shop class will change that? You stated that they are ignorant but more importantly lazy. Shop class won’t fix that.

I’m a teacher. Adult education. Most prefer to study via zoom. As one stated, “I love going to school in my negligée “

I can't blame the parents for homeschooling their kids. Get rid of the indoctrination and just teach the curriculum.

I miss Nance, where has he been? We need him on all news stations telling it like it is. He's a real man, with great views and knowledge. .

In the show, Nance said he was in Ukraine for ten months battling the Russians.
