Reflection Upon the Debate
Friday, November 6, 2009
What Emerson says in “The American Culture” still holds true today, and in fact is more common.
Emerson’s idea is more common, because jobs these days are more specific. An example of this is in teaching. Teachers used to teach kids of all ages, multiple subjects at the same time, all in one classroom. Now each teacher teaches sometimes only one age, and just one specific subject. the thing is that not many teachers can teach different subjects.
What Emerson said is still true, because every day people are turned down from jobs, because they can't do other things. Many people are forced to pay money to go back to college to get a degree in another field. Not only are they paying more money, but they re making very little if any money while going to school.
