Lettuce Revisit EdukShun
By Malcolm Hedges (09/30/08)
In the 1960's the Public School system started going downhill by eliminating practical knowledge from the requirements for promotion to the next grade and eventual graduation.
As it stands now, the longer students attend school the dumber they get.
A larger majority of recent and current "High school" graduates cannot read, write, speak coherently or perform simple mathematical calculations.
The Department Of Education was created in 1980 which accelerated the demise of educational quality. Federal meddling has it's usual effect of screwing up everything they get their hands on...
Not to be overlooked are the Progressive Socialist infested "teachers unions" that dearly wish to have all Public Schools exist as orientation camps to program as many good little Socialists as possible.
Potential High School graduates cannot even pass the required simplistic tests after they have been basically spoon fed the answers!
Part of the grand scheme was to create the illusion that children that don't attend and graduate from a 4-year college to get a degree are doomed to be poor all of their lives. Additionally they portray service industries as below the station in life for smart little Socialists.
A very small percentage of College degrees result in annual remuneration close to or above that of well qualified and trained technical service industry workers.
Most graduates from Colleges and Universities are just barely qualified to be College or University students! 1950's and early 1960's High School Graduates have more education and knowledge than recent and current College and University graduated mush-minds.
To compound the issue, a larger percentage of professors and teachers are essentially illiterate and unqualified to teach anybody anything.
Unfortunately the current situation is by design, a stupid populace is prime for embracing and supporting their Socialist demagogues.
Even trying to look into the future with a super telescope, no sign of improvement to be found.
