[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Shouldn't be suprised. Many segments of our population do not value education. Only 85% of Americans graduate high school and 30% graduate college. Of those 85% who graduate high school, how many are just pushed through? Take DCPS for example. Many kids entering high school ate reading at a 4th grade level. No shit.[/quote]You do realize that the structure of the economy has changed in recent decades, right? Many people used to be able to work at manufacturing jobs with a high school education that would give them a middle class salary. Those jobs have disappeared and there are fewer and fewer jobs that pay middle class salaries. Not fair to attack people who have had the rug pulled out from underneath them.[/quote]
