Problem is the sore lack of intelligent Americans.
“Problem is the sore lack of intelligent Americans.”
My daughter had to prep for this “fiscal cliff” talk in her government class (ninth grade). The other kids just didn’t understand it AT ALL and she was getting frustrated as she tried to explain it to them in their “round table” discussion.
The teacher in giving the lesson started explain it and talking about income tax, etc. After about the third mention of the term “income tax” one of the kids said “What is an income tax?”
Most of the other kids chimed in “Yeah - what is that?”
My daughter had this look of shock, eyes wide, jaw dropped, frozen like a deer in the headlights. The teacher looked over at her, shook her head snickered, and then explained what “income tax” is to these kids (3 years away from being able to vote!).
