implicit complicity
Asserting support for arts in American schools, she reminded us that well-rounded future citizens will be necessary for continued successful competition with the rest of the world.
No one batted an eye.
Did you?
That we compete with the rest of the world -- and should continue to do so -- is inherent and assumed.
I hope our well-rounded future citizens realize we should more effectively cooperate.

I was focusing more on the 70% graduation rate. . . thanks for bringing verbiage to my attention.

There is a type of competition that is actually cooperation [like having a running buddy] but with sport-obsessed, win-obsessed America that type of competition is pretty much ignored.
