    And no consistency means a unreliable workforce.

    My company struggles with hiring people because the employment pool in the southern states can’t do math. Like no joking they had to local training on fractions so they can do their jobs. That’s embarrassing as a country.

      I honestly really doubt that. Yeah, there’s dumb ssses, sure, there’s people who don’t understand fractions, absolutely, stupid people exist, but to the extent that you have a hard time finding someone who can? No, I don’t believe you.

        You’re literally arguing that making those people who don’t understand those things more common won’t be bad because you can still find some who aren’t morons. As if failing to educate more people won’t be a bad thing in and out itself.

        More incompetent people means less competent ones. More incompetent people means more stress on welfare programs, lower average wages (which puts stress on the stability of your social security).

        At least try to think one or two steps through the consequences of your own stances…

            Yes, Republicans have been attacking education for decades. They’re creating a class system, and you’re not in the good one.
