Most of the WW2 generation who fought the war, built the plans, ships and tanks, andhelped develop the weapons only had an 8th grade education.

Look what they accomplished in less than four years.

We have college educated dummies that know nothing now.

They were educated, not indoctrinated. Used to collect old textbooks. it was amazing what used to be taught and what was expected of students.

Takes only a couple generations to dumb down a society.

Denis Prager has had a repeated segment of things you have to have at least a master’s degree to believe, such as “you can change gender by changing your mind”.

the problem is not the person with eight grade education. the problem is those getting masters Degrees and PHD”s.
most of those that have only a high school diploma are doing the grunt work and cant hurt the economy that bad. The problem is that a lot of people who have gone to school to become the leaders of today in business and politics are making real bad decisions.

The problem is that an 8th Grade Education in the 40s was far superior to a college education, today!
