[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rich people make a mockery out of education and the ideals that America was founded on [/quote] You need to understand history better. American education was reserved for the elite and for religious education focused on teaching children to read the bible. As recently as the 1930s most kids did not go beyond elementary school - 30% of children went to high school. Actually the US education system was piss poor on all fronts leaving a large demographic out of education, i.e., black people - MLK day is coming up, maybe you can read up on that for your kids (it was the 1960s, not at the time of our founding fathers). I’d say the average white American started receiving a good education in the post WWII boom. The average black American, probably during and after the Civil Rights movement, depending on where they lived. America was not founded on any principles of education. You are clearly ignorant and misguided.[/quote]
