Makes me wonder why we ever did away with those dang literacy tests.

I think it shows America's exceptionalism when we allow tax-free cults to turn children into complete idiots and then permit them to vote and hold public office.

And sadly, too many students today WANT to be fed the facts so that they can regurgitate them. i just finished a unit on Macbeth with University-destination grade 11's; in a class discussion on Macbeth, only 3 (three) of 27 could identify "ambition" as the defining characteristic of Macbeth- because I hadn't told them that yet. Because they couldn't figure it out from what he said and did. Ye Gods.
