It's the end of the world as we know it...

There are a lot of schools in the US that need to do a better job teaching the core subjects: reading, writing, math, and history.

Especially history, because, those who fail to learn from the mistakes of the past are doomed to repeat them in the future! And we don't seem to be doing a good job learning from those mistakes (in general, and as a nation) at all.

So I see more and more mistakes standing before us, that we are doomed to repeat (in general, and as a nation), and that's very sad!

Dumbing down by design.
