George Will laments...

...in his column today that: 

America's school year (about 180 days) is one of the shortest in the industrial world...

Fair enough. But why is it that when someone points out the shortcomings in America's health care system conservatives always shout, "AMERICAN EXCEPTIONALISM!," or "We don't want to be like the rest of the world!"?

"while middle-class children may leaven their summers with strolls through the Louvre"

How out of touch can Will be? Middle class children are now lucky to go to the Wisconsin Dells on vacation. "Strolling the Louvre" is definitely the vacation plans of the 1%.
