"J"-s in charge
[Many of the problems with schools today are the result of determined conservative efforts to strangle the schools by limiting funding and demanding simplistic standards of students rather than treating the schools as the place where children grow into the rich minds that make society a better place]

[The model is MBTI (Meyers-Briggs) http://www.keirsey.com]

Ah yes, another example of J-type people ("conservatives") enforcing patterns (control). J-types are great at creating patterns and "running " them, but the MOST PAINFUL THING IN THE WORLD to a J-type, is CHANGE! They invest much time and effort into their patterns, and any change requires that much more time/effort. Of course, P-type people ("liberals") live with change constantly - and have trouble creating patterns . . .

The trend of the world is that since J-types are organized and P-types are not, J-types tend to dominate. Only after much "strife" do the P-types FINALLY rally, and change bursts on the scene (1960's "hippie" movement).

Don't like the arrangement? Go ahead and take on 50% of the population - with no help - and THEY are in charge . . .
