Beliefs; Robert N. Franz (part 2)

Two issues which still have to be faced and solved in the early 21st century by the U.S. of A. are health and education: Briefly speaking, it must be said that as education goes -- it certainly influences the outcome of our healthcare. To take them on now carries as much weight on our GDP as our defense expenditures.

We do not have to have healthcare as Sweden or Denmark but we do have to have healthcare for our people. The private method of the late 20th century failed a majority of us and President Obama's health insurance, which covers 90% of the population, would run up more expenses.

I recommend that we look more to what the British are doing with their system. Costs are less per capita. In this case their Parliament decides how much expenditures cost for care and research. In this way there would not be 'middlemen' jacking up the cost of care every year. The major problem would be the supply of health care specialists and 'waiting times'. Another concern is what it would do to the 'Hippocratic Oath'. Perhaps we should then consider the training in which professionals would obtain responsibility, noting, of course, that values have to be upheld -- not only for the direct healthcare but for healthcare suppliers as well. Why should meds be "jacked-up" as well?

To look for the upholding of values please now see how one may offer a 'Write-in' vote for Robert N. Franz for U.S. Congress from the state of Delaware. Click on this link: electionsncc.delaware.gov/use_vm/writ... Thank you !

Education is essential for the care of a country as well. For socialization and early learning I recommend universal pre-K. Let the youngsters learn how to get along with each other well before the actions and drudgery of primary and middle school. This could just prevent a later 'gun war' in some student's lives !

Remember that primary and middle schools build a foundation of how to work in later life. What we learn there determines how we find habits, values, and the need for patience, tolerance and fortitude. All school is important -- these grades determine what kind of citizens we will be.

High school and early college form times when interests pique and 'apprenticeships' are formed. I know one doctor who learned how to paint artistically, and a chemical engineer who learned the skills of woodworking. Both upon their retirement learned more and worked further at these occupations of opportunity.

M.A.'s, M.S.'s, legal degree seekers and holders, Ph.D.'s and M.D.'s work with specialized training. These very responsible individuals become professionals much as other students gain trades. All of these 'specialists' use learning by academics and "hands on" work. Since they learn - 'in the field' - not always do great costs have to be incurred. Essentially they learn 'en vivo'!

We look for less expensive ways to get an education. Learning should not be an exercise which is purely academic -- instead the "hands on" approach means that it will be more realistic and less expensive. People need to be rewarded for what they can do and not necessarily because of the 'letters' after their names.

There is a right and a wrong. We need to be able to learn 'en vitro' as well as 'en vivo'!! Yet, we need to get back to the colleges which Senator Bernie Sanders and so many others attended in New York City years ago. Many people became very successful using community colleges almost specifically because of other responsibilities they held along with their studies. Neighborhood work and children are very important !

As far as the rest of us are concerned there should be some form of debt forgiveness. If not that then listen to President Bill Clinton who recently said that the entire package of each student's debt should be consolidated and treated as a "mortgage with no increasing debt." President Clinton then said, "In that way the students would not have to live in their parent's house when they would be 35 to 40 years old!" [Like he has that problem] Although he comes from a different world than most of us -- he seems to value education for all of us.

In these ways we know that there is nothing wrong with going to any community college -- for our training for the future not only comes with academics, but practical experience too!

So therefore in this case, my issue with conservative thought is that we have to help instead of hinder. 'If you are frustrated with the game -- then we have to change the rules'! Education must be more of a right than a privilege in modern America. When all of us know how to read, perhaps we can all be fed as well !

Finally, I have to say that all of these issues need not be put together awkwardly -- or eclectically -- but more so that each individual can grow to be a healthy, responsible citizen in the society of our country.

There will of course be more later -- there always is -- but in these ways we can have a framework of how to 'work' in America ! Efficient, 'and' effective methods need to be applied.

May God bless you if you desire it. May peace be yours!

Sincerely written, and
Respectfully submitted,
