Your public education is a sure fire example of what progressives can do... we had 99% literacy before you brought us the tender mercies of communism, a hundred years go by and people are graduating that can't read their diplomas... and Medicare is broke way ahead of schedule and SSI is right behind... and you assclowns are what got us public roads? Jeez, get your meds adjusted....
The USA has one of the highest levels of literacy rates in the world. This is in spite of the vast diversity of people's that we educate. Other nations might produce a larger number of STAR intellectuals but we educate a far broader number of people. Anyways, you think you're so smart, take this sample exam required for graduating from CA high schools.

I was working in the office one recent weekend and a friend of mine brought in his daughter who was in the 3rd grade. She was doing an essay with an 'Outline': I was taught how to make an 'Outline' in the 7th grade back in the 1970's.
ATTACKS ON THE USA EDUCATION SYSTEM IS NOTHING BUT AN ATTEMPT BY RELIGIOUS FANATICS TO GET THE TAXPAYER TO FUND THE RELIGIOUS EDUCATION OF THEIR ROBOTS..er..I mean..CHILDREN.
Medicare and SSI are NOT broke: they are due monies from the general revenue funds because the money has been borrowed from these funds to pay our nations bills. In any event, we can always scale back on our Offensive Military spending to fund these things that REALLY help AMERICANS.
