Literacy rate has skyrocketed over the past 50 years. In 1960 it was 42% and in 2015 it essentially doubled to 86%

Yea from working in public schools part of my assessment is asking kids/teens about grades because a sudden drop can be an indicator of a mh symptom

You can miss a ridiculous amount of days in public schools, like 25+ absences, be failing multiple classes and they’ll still pass you

Progressive is the future.
bro, act like there isn't statistically data on how terrible kids are being taught compared to other modern countries, it's as fucked as our healthcare system

anytime i ever see an article on the subject it's about how none of them can read or do math at grade level.

Quote:
Up to 65% of community college students take at least one remedial course within six years of initial enrollment. Black students, Hispanic students, and students from low-income backgrounds are disproportionately placed into these courses.
of all the issues to argue about "no, our education system is working great" is the dumbest one ive seen in like 50 pages in this thread.

Quote:
Sixty five percent of all U.S. fourth graders scored “below proficient,” which means that they are not reading at grade level. Only 35 percent of fourth graders are reading at or above grade level. In addition, 64 percent of eighth graders are reading below grade level, whereas 36 percent are reading at or above grade level.
65% my dude, and reading is fucking easy. bad parents, even worse system.

You value AI right?

In 1960, the median number of years of formal schooling by adults (25 years old and over) was 10.6 years, as compared with 9.3 years for the adult population in 1950. In 2020, about 37.9 percent of the U.S. population who were aged 25 and above had graduated from college or another higher education institution1. The percentage of high school graduates or those that achieved a GED was roughly 50% in 1950 versus 90% today

Are democrats more educated than republicans?

Sent message.

Quote:
According to a Pew study of party identification, in 1996, Republican voters were more likely than Democrats to have a four-year degree. Today, college graduates make up 41% of Democrats, compared with 30% of Republicans. Data from the Pew Research Center show that different people are populating the two major political parties — with Republicans and Democrats moving in sharply different directions among college-educated voters. At the beginning of this century, Republicans held an 11-point edge on party affiliation among college-educated voters.

So it seems that Democrats are more educated than Republicans. I hope that helps! Let me know if you have any other questions.
Trump did say he loves his uneducated.

oh jesus dude, that is the dumbest fucking way to try to argue this, how many of those people with useless degrees are working at Walmart, Amazon or other service industry jobs like Starbucks n shit.

pushing college on literally everyone regardless of their aptitude was the biggest fucking scam and theft of wealth via debt in a generation. 2nd to only maybe the Bush "everyone is a homeowner" and subsequent financial collapse. having actual good guidance counselors and paths towards trades or actual skills with apprenticeship programs is a way better system. than literally everyone paying a shit load for the "college experience"

always comes back to that good ol' class warfare ivory tower bullshit. wonder how those numbers stack up if you separate the engineers and other STEM fields away from people with liberal arts degrees. that attitude is how trump won the first time, literal disconnect from reality and real people.
