[QUOTE="Grendel, post: 2588426, member: 15821"] This brings up a point that I have been thinking about lately... We have known for many years, generations now really, that our schools are underfunded and underperforming. I think what we are seeing now is the effects of MULTIPLE generations of bad education. And we have no other choice but to elect incompetent people from a low quality pool of possible leaders, who will also appoint people from that same low quality pool, to all of the positions that are responsible for our infrastructure. It's like making a photo copy of a low quality image, and then photocopying that copy...eventually we lose all semblance of what the picture is supposed to look like. We have parents, and now grandparents who were brought up in our crappy educational system and not only do we lack the skills or knowledge to do things the right way...but we don't even recognize that fact that they CAN be done better.
