It’s soooooo fun to watch the cashiers in a store when the electricity goes out. Forced the stores to get generators.

That’s why I don’t believe in using computers/calculators in school....learn math the old-fashioned way.

Believe it, this generation's inability to do simple math w/out a calculator is frightening, last month I sprung for 2 burgers at BK but was charged for 3 Whoppers, despite my explaining the math and even counting the charges on the receipt she insisted it was correct because the machine said it was correct, it took the manager to get it right, let's hear it for public education...

If only the problem were confined to math. The pathetic truth is that people are being given a well rounded education, they are ignorant not just about math but about language, history, government, literature, geography, and many other things. If ignorance had any value we would be rich indeed. The average American soldier in WWII had an eighth grade education and was better educated by far than most recent college graduates.
