      But how did it become a shithole? Because we don’t teach people to think for themselves.

        I agree OP. Critical Thinking, Problem Solving, Common Sense, Manners, Social Skills, Financial Management, Handling rejection, Applying for Employment, automobile repair to name a few. Essential living skills that will be used lifelong.
        Why in God's name we need to learn trivial high mathematics or fictional stories that have no realistic use is beyond me. Some things need to be phased out as they are obsolete. Saying sports teaches teamwork is pure nonsense.
        Group work, teamwork and partner work only works in specific scenarios not everything in the world requires collaboration. Most of this is from teachers wanting to grade less and not focus on individuals.

            Media doesn't make fake trump puppets saying the things he does. He says them. He tweets them. Just because it's in the internet doesn't mean it's fake news.

              "Trump said mean things". We know Trump says mean things. He's president though. If you disagree with his policies that hes looking to implement on then speak on that but just saying "He says mean things" doesnt matter to us Americans when he's cut our taxes in half, helped our economy, and kept us out of conflict with other countries.

              He can say mean things all he wants. I didnt vote for him because I like him I voted for him because he had the best plan.
