... opportunity of education should not be missed by anyone; no matter what caliber of intelligence they might posses. Material can be altered to better fit the small minded, just as long as the basic facts get through to them. If the less intelligent people are not given an education, they are useless to society. The goal of a productive society is to have all of its members participate in their community as efficiently as they can. Those, whose intelligence surpasses other’s, should be given a challenge in every circumstance available. Harder work should be provided, but not demanded. Although, those with the skills to complete such work, should n ...
... it is "the individual internal process that energises directs and sustains behavior; the personal force that causes one to behave in a particular way" (Olsen, 1996, p.1).

... economic, environmental, and social. If sustainability is to occur it must, meet these three divisions. In Chile, none of these divisions is being met. Economically speaking, almost 40% of the population is poor and as a result many make a living directly from the land clearing forests. In the IVth region of Chile, forest regions are being depleted at an amazing rate. This depletion of the forest in this region results in two main things, one, people must spend increasing amounts of energy traveling to the site of present cutting and two, the removal of the trees over time has lead to soil erosion and rapid desertification of the area.

... business decisions. Those decisions are made by a professional management team, appointed by a salaried board of directors. In most cases these managers will not own stock in the company which may lead to strongly differing goals of owners and managers.
