the education system would never be able to shoulder the added cost of a year-round school. even if it could... i don't think it'd be healthy for the kids to be in school as often as adults are expected to be at work. in order to combat the problems that sometimes occur on extended break... i would be all for splitting the school year into 4-6 different sections... each separated by a couple week's worth of vacation.

If you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly, you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance for survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves.
