Intelligence Quotient is important. You have to have the equipment. Then you have to have the software.
IMO, it’s the software that is deficient these days.
The emphasis isn’t on giving kids the software they need.
It’s on giving them the Leftist vaporware.
Our educations system doesn’t instill values. It doesn’t instill sound economic principles. It does it’s best to destroy any lessons from history.
This must be turned around. When these kids reach their 40s - 70s, they’ll be unprepared to make intelligent decisions regarding which way our nation needs to go.
If we got back to basics, it would take about 15 years to start seeing results. The Marxists should be disqualified from impacting our nation’s education system.
Get education back to the local community. Eliminate the local Leftist activist’s impact on our local school boards, and the PTA.
They are enemies of our nation, pure and simple.
If they don’t support our Constitution and the Founding Principles, they are subversive and in some instances out and out traitors.
They should be treated as such.
The stuff you mention is A way to narrow the gap, but that's all it does. The IQ gap does exist. I see it all the time in college education.
It is ridiculous to reduce all that goes on in the noggin to ONE number, and that formulated by a godless version of science.
I’d be curious to see evaluations pursued in the vein of a Moral Quotient and a Spiritual Quotient.
