“Similarly, employers complain that less than half of the young whom they hire have adequate problem-solving skills, yet nearly two-thirds of the young believe that they do have such skills.”
They don’t have such skills, nor do they really know what critical thinking is. They believe that critical thinking is to apply their Marxist-derived dialectics to any problem in order to arrive at the proper solution, since that is what they’ve been taught. Public schools are designed to suppress critical thinking, not encourage it, in order to churn out compliant drones for the state.
It’s worse than that. They’ve got all the ego of a professional sprots star and none of the skills. We literally must reeducate an entire generation.
