This TED talk video is yet more evidence that people do have solutions for many of the ills of American Society but we can not wait for someone in power to act on these solutions. We have to force them as the every day citizens. This particular TED talk entitled "Four Ways to Fix a Broken Legal System" obviously is geared toward the legal system of America but it makes points about the education system and other areas of American life. It struck me that this guy and other people have solutions. Why can't these solutions be enacted. Because we are waiting for someone in power to enact these solutions? I do not know. But it is my contention that we as every day citizens need to force change. There are many other points in this video that can generate conversation including the warning labels and what they say about our intelligence as well the teachers not having authority to discipline students so they have no power to prevent that 1% of students from disrupting the learning of the other 99%.
