The way they teach math in public school is crap. The system wasn’t broke but they had to “fix” it and make it a pos.
Just a few short years ago we had math geniuses that built the bomb, put men on the moon, built dams and bridges still standing, the skunk works, refined the computer... now we have web designers and social media designers.
See my post #8. These are the Americans who the Japanese elevated and emulated. Google "Ed Deming" and you will understand why their industrial quality has gone from mediocre to top notch in a generation.
I remember the ‘new math’ they tried in the 70s. It was a complete failure
Now they’re trying the same crap. The guvmint can’t have smart citizens who can do math
Parents need to educate their kids
