  • When I went to high school in the 60's it was a better education than is available in most colleges today.
    As the anti government protests protests and against the war increased the government realized that educating the masses was counterproductive to controlling the population. Education was defunded to the point that most college grads I play darts with today can't do the simple math score keeping in their heads.
    Our "powers that be" are working very hard to eliminate the middle class and it seems to be working quite effectively in the case of your brother and his girl.
    Viva the USA!

    • Oh my God, I can't do simple math in my head and I'm in college and I am pretty good at math. There's just no reinstatement! They said I didn't need it so I didn't have to practice, and many others have made this "choice" as well. Damn them dirty government bastards!
