What are the consequences of the U.S. war on drugs on Mexico?

IgorLugansk [536]3 years ago
6 0

America is at war.  We have been fighting drug abuse for almost a century.  Four Presidents have personally waged war on drugs.  Unfortunately, it is a war that we are losing.  Drug abusers continue to fill our courts, hospitals, and prisons.  The drug trade causes violent crime that ravages our neighborhoods.  Children of drug abusers are neglected, abused, and even abandoned.  The only beneficiaries of this war are organized crime members and drug dealers.

<span>The United States has focused its efforts on the criminalization of drug use and trafficker's coming from Mexico.  The government has spent billions of dollars trying to get rid the supply of drugs coming into our country.  These intervention efforts and law enforcement attempts to control the drugs have not been successful nor have they met with decreases in the availability of drugs in America. There are actually more drugs now than ever before! Apart from being super expensive, drug law and drug enforcement has been counterproductive, it does not work.  Our current drug laws need to be reviewed and revamped so that they are more effective or are a deterrent to those to bring drug into the US.  The United States needs to shift spending from law enforcement and penalization to education, treatment, and prevention.</span>

The trend of teaching content previously taught in 1st grade to kindergartners or even preschoolers is known as
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

push down curriculum

Explanation:

Over the past few decades, observers say, preschool classes and kindergartens have begun to look more like traditional 1st grade classes: young children are expected to sit quietly while they listen to whole-class instruction or fill in worksheets. Concurrently, teachers have been expecting their pupils to know more and more when they first enter their classrooms.

Experts cite many reasons for this trend. The urge to catch up with the Russians after the launching of Sputnik led to “young children doing oodles of sit-still, pencil-and-paper work”—a type of schoolwork inappropriate for 5- to 7-year-olds, says Jim Uphoff, a professor of education at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio. (Today, the urge to compete with Japan yields the same result, experts say.) Another cause of the pushed-down curriculum is the widespread—yet incorrect—notion that one can teach children anything, at any age, if the content is presented in the right way, says David Elkind, a professor of child study at Tufts University.
