This is a prime example of how we need to cut our losses with education. There should be an entrance exam for high school. If you can’t read or do simple arithmetic, you should get turned out at the end of the 9th grade.

We are spending millions of dollars to run a school for idiots who can’t read and largely don’t even bother to show up.

They used to have shop class and other useful trades you could learn for almost no charge and apprenticeship programs.
All of that ended as I was graduating in early 90s and the beginning of Heather has two mommies, participation trophy, safe space.
Saw an interesting blurb about a precipitous drop in IQ actually leading to Rome’s collapse.
Any society that allows the jihad squad and Brandon’s Chimpy Kenyan puppetmaster near the levers of powers is obviously too stupid to exist and soon to be put out of misery by enemies internal and external.

I can’t even understand what they are trying to say when they are trying to read. IQs are sub 80.

Jesus…$400 between the two of them and they’re acting like it’s a flex.

I made $400 before noon.

Unfortunately the government thinks that it needs ~35% of what I made in order to give it to losers like this who don’t work….so I need to work until 3 PM every day to keep these morons fed, clothed, “educated”, housed and probably dealing drugs…which the IRS won’t get them for unless they reach Al Capone status.

The “Land of the Free” hasn’t been free for a long time now.

It is an employment program for college educated leftist wimmens to control the children they will never birth on their own.

    LOL! Indeed, they could! That’s what makes it funny.

I have said for a long time now that school needs to be reserved for those who can and will succeed, and for those we should pull out the stops all the way to a PhD. The rest need to be introduced into some sort of trade program where they can learn to be productive and make an honest living. For the rest of them, the behavior problems, etc. remove them from the system and give them a shovel. Of course, this goes hand in hand with the concept of there being no welfare handouts. Turn to crime, and you can be dealt with, i,e. terminated as well

“Danger! This video could and probably will vaporize millions of brain cells you use for everyday life!”

When I was incarcerated in the public school system, somewhere around the 8th grade I came to the conclusion that the system wasn’t actually designed to “educate” anyone. It was just a state-supported daycare system. And that was back before two-working-parent households were the norm.

Someone once said “public school is punishment for a crime you didn’t commit.” I tip my hat to them, whoever it was. I certainly felt that way.

No surprise
Their mom probably can’t read,
Their grandparents probably can’t read.
Who is going to help with homework? Who’s going to read them a story at bedtime when they were little?
This has been going on since the 60’s when LBJ decided to pay people to be lazy.

There was a time when brooms and shovels were issued so at least some amount of semi-productive work could be accomplished.

Today that would require 12 hours of training, accompanied by a Ikea-style pictogram, on which end of the brooms and shovels were the working end.

And you wonder why we had them picking cotton instead of building rockets…..
