Well, you've got a point there, FRiend. But what about the rest of us who have educated ourselves? Are we all destined to live in the squalor as America devolves?

After decades of second rate education in public schools this has happened. But the public schools are free and let the parents, the ones who accept second rate for their children, escape the responsibility and financial obligations of educating their children properly.
