Letter: Tough to find common sense

Wednesday, April 29, 1998 | 10:52 a.m.

The first group to ask are the ones who are proposing the new school schedule, where we have the younger kids starting earlier and letting the already lazier teenagers, who are in charge of the schools and their parents, start at the later hour.

The second group to ask are those who have suggested that we let unskilled people treat the sick but let the licensed people be accountable for those people's actions. Why don't we just let one person in each household get a driver's license and let everyone else drive on it or, better yet, one licensed or college-graduate doctor, lawyer, professor, electrician or plumber, and we'll all work under them.

Maybe the answer is that all of these pot-smoking, drug-taking baby boomers are coming of age and their brains and common sense are nonexistent.
