What ever happened to just memorizing the tables up to 12 like we all had to do, you know the people that did spaceflight, the internet, and the computer revolution?

No one will be able to do more advanced math....except Asians and S. Asians.

Americans will be digging rocks and pulling weeds. Or on welfare.

The US as we know it will be a museum.

Memorization is anathema to modern "educators." They don't want to admit that they can be replaced with anyone who has the same patience necessary to train a puppy.
