    OK, so I guess you’d agree that the people who control the US government are either unintelligent or very bad at their joba

      As I said above:

      No, it’s a sign of greedy people wanting to keep a population ignorant.

      An ignorant population is a compliant population. That’s why so many other nations have ruined their education system and replaced it with propaganda.

        That sounds like a conspiracy theory. Governments aren’t controlled by a few people, they’re controlled by many rich people who all want to stab each other in the back to make an extra dime.

        Some of them may be crazy trying to destroy the education of the populous, but certainly others in power want an educated populace.
