You're kidding.
This country had no real middle class for most of it's existence. It's only the last seven or so decades where there has been a strong and vibrant middle class.
Before that we look like any tin horn third world country. We had a small band of kazillionaires and an ocean of poor people. I can remember back when poor meant going without food for a week, no electricity from time to time. and wearing "holely" clothing everyday. That was my childhood. And I am sure it was worse for people older then me.
80 years ago was the start[ish] of the Great Depression.
so no, I'm not kidding.
remove the Dept of Ed and education will improve, remove the non-sense classes and our kids needed skills will improve.
Yep..and after that was the real rise of a Middle Class. Before that there was no middle class.
And removing the department of education will insure that for a good amount of the people in this country..there would be no access to education..and no standards to speak of.
In other words..welcome to the third world.
Our country is bankrupt, 50% of the electorate is dependent on the government for financial support - yep, we are a third world country indeed.
