Collapse of government run, state-authoritarian education, possibly.
Replace the whole thing with homeschooling, scrap exams, abolish diplomas/qualifications, just make sure kids learn the Bible and Trump's teachings, etc, nothing else.
Feature not a flaw. I have textbooks that my great-aunt used copyright before 1900. Others that my father and his brothers and sisters used. They learned LATIN!
"Teachers report that kids are not capable of comprehending the content of written material, and that thinking and working out the answer to a problem is beyond their ability."
We must END the public school system. In Oregon, the previous governor passed that our public schools would allow illiterate students to graduate from high school. Public schools are only expensive day care centers. There is NO education in public schools. The Dept of Ed, Teachers Union & the politicization of education has corrupted it. There is no value in a public education. Only harm.
We need to make education a privilege again. American citizens must seek and strive for ann education. Only then will it have value in our society.
Scary true.
