Just noticing the statistics from the war in Iraq and the latest figures on the Nations problem with learning disabilities affecting our youth. Bearing this rate of growth this trend at its present pace reveals that the next generations of American leaders left with the ablity to lead our nation; will be the women.
The majority of the soldiers dying in the war today are men only volunteering for a tour of duty with the incentive to receive funds for education, now most are not coming home to use those funds. Women are not put in such dangerous missions and more are coming home than the male soldiers. Leaving a new wave of females waiting to be educated.
The current statistics on education bear out that 3 out of 5 learning disabilities diagnosed today affect more males over females, thus leaving the next generation more to the females in the means and ability to learn and be more educated.
The short term effect may be a great equalizer for women, the long term however is bleak for us all as more and more of our nations future is killed or left unable to learn.
Both of these current events are more focused on our young men than women, hopefully soon we can see an end to them both.
