If you conclude that we're a nation of ignoramuses today, that's the same conclusion I drew.
Compared to what those kids had to know, we've certainly succeeded at only dumbing down the system over time. Do you really think 4,000,000 more teachers, or however many Obama deems fit to hire, will fix this? 300,000 of the new hires destined for rubber rooms?
My, what the teachers unions hath wrought.
