When I was an assistant at Fordham in 1977, the students were unable to write, or think. The professor I assisted had taken to handing out the answers to his ESSAY questions. That’s right. He wrote essays and gave them out. The students were graded on whether they were able to regurgitate something resembling an essay. Most of them weren’t.
And yet, during the almost 40 years since then, I’ve been reading articles that decry the precipitous decline in student literacy since “five years ago.”
The government schools have been succeeding for over 100 years in turning out illiterates. And they have been getting more and more and more successful all the time.
The “low-information voter” is PRECISELY what Horace Mann, Andrew Carnegie, John Dewey, J.D. Rockefeller, et al., WANTED to produce by imposing government schooling on America.
