Yes I’m aware he is selecting the worst but I don’t care. That he could find even 1 or 2 (not mentally handicapped) this uneducated is disturbing.

Really it’s much of the reason why we are getting disastrous politicians…these young adults VOTE.

Time to euthanize the entire education system in this country and give all the NEA members the jobs illegal aliens just won’t do

But he didn’t ask really important questions, like, name all the Kardashians.

Miss you every day, Mr. Limbaugh! Things are not improving, sad to say. :(

The corrupt education system is turning out the ‘products’ they are paid to produce.

There you have it. The government education system in this country is a massive, multi-decade failure. There are good reasons homeschooling continues to increase by leaps and bounds. Something big needs to change.

Back when I was hiring people, I’d ask them to “Please convert the fraction 4/5 into a percentage.” Around half could not, and many had no idea what I was talking about. They were interviewing for professional positions, and all had college degrees.

One girl knew an octagon was 8-sided...eventually. And, the non-binary kid (with the mask) got 2/3 of the way to the answer for the 7+7+7 question (14).

But, I completely agree with you...”Good help us”. These are the minimum-wage rejects that will be pushing us around in wheelchairs, and wiping our behinds, once we’re deposited in the old folks home.

NYC teachers (no experience..fresh out of school) start about $70,000 a year and the top of the pay scale for a teacher with masters degree with 20+ years experience in a place like southern Indiana is about $75,000 a year.

Most rural school students in Indiana are quite well educated especially compared to where these dolts were interviewed yet the salary of the teachers in NYC (assuming that’s where this is) is about 75% better for massively worse results.

Which shows other factors than pay are more important to learning. Examples are the presence of mom and dad in the home, teacher quality, emphasis the administration places on what…and another factor about the students I won’t mention here least I be labeled bad things.

Just WOW.
If there was only something akin to a targeted extinction level event to clear up this mess.
Looks to be to pervasive to fix any other way.

Do these kids aspire to do anything with their lives that requires a modicum of knowledge?
