Anyone on here who is not doing homework...?

Anyone? Every question is either posted by someone who was too lazy to do their homework over the weekend and now they want someone to do it for them, or someone who just doesn't care about doing anything and wants someone else who already did the work to give them the answers. Is there anyone on here who is seriously interested in debating history?

Update:

I don't mind helping someone who is stuck on a question. Especially if it relates to the Cold War. But I find it insulting that kids cannot do their own work. To top it off - "teachers don't grade based on the work but the effort" so why should you do any work in history? Answer: you shouldn't, you should grow up to be a clueless taxpayer who doesn't know the firts thing about how the government is supposed to serve its citizens.

Update 2:

Ironic: now that you clarify, I understand what you were trying to say. I think that is just absolutely sad. The cummulative result of such neglect can only lead to further ignorance and apathy in this country. No wonder the government can just "borrow" 1.5 trillion dollars in a matter of a few months from a future generation and nobody seems to care. If you are an honor student, that is fantastic. Good luck to you.

    As a teacher I give homework but I also help students who need help.

    Yes, I love to debate History having taught it for 39 years in both the US and Australia!

    I never have.

    The point is this: teachers rarely actually give a numerical grade for it, they just check if you tried to do it. It is that way in public school, anyway. Do you honestly think I would do my history homework as though it would be graded as a test?

    Think again, my little chickens.

    Edit:

    Sorry, I said that the wrong way. I understand it and comprehend it much more then the rest of the class, its the fact I cannot pull enough time out to give full detailed answers because of the fact the teacher will just look over it, make sure my name is on it, and write '5/5' at the top. It is a relentless behavior on the teachers end that has effected the 'will power', to say, of the students. If anyone is to blame, it is the teachers who do not do their job. And frankly, at my school(a public one, mind you), that is every single teacher I have ever had. If you wanted, I can give proof of both the work, and my grades(high honors by the way).
