It sounds as though the liberals’, “There Is No Wrong Answer” Math system isn’t working out. LOL!

But look at the great job new math has done for the economy.
Like seventy-eleventy-kabillion jobs were created or saved just last week.... and 0Care is deficit neutral.

Maybe I'm missing something but, if [c]hildren in elementary school are being taught integers, coordinates, rational numbers how exactly does this equate to "dumbing down" and no wrong answers? These are actually more advance mathematical concepts. One of the problems I notice with the general population is they fail to comprehend these abstract concepts. Even if you could add, subtract and multiply like a human calculator, you would still be mathematically illiterate.
