Quite so. The system now rewards those who can best manipulate it - in fact, it now puts them in charge of it. Our public education officials are not even trying to defend it anymore - they are the same as those who got ahead through political correctness. On the one hand, our public education system would better prepare our young people to be successful in life by teaching them ways to use the system to their advantage. This was until now the sole domain of our prisons (and certain community organizing groups like ACORN). President Obama is a perfect example of this phenomenon - a man who has succeeded only by allowing himself to be hoisted by a system that puts a value on his race and demeanor, not on his accomplishments or industry.

On the other hand, to do this would be to neglect teaching our kids anything of value or of use in building and defending our society and its success- that has now become the domain of homeschoolers and private schools. So we have two systems - one that prepares people to grow the economy and the other that teaches people how to sponge off it.
