Some of these make no sense. At least the way they are describing them.
One was "Contempt for Knowledge" and then they acted like school didn't teach who George Washington was. That is insane.
8 bemoaned that they don't teach cursive anymore. Good cursive is fricking useless. People will never accept any document written in cursive.
I also want to know how we are indoctrinating our kids to be worse at math? A lot of that seems like paranoid bullshite. For the most part the #1 factor in getting a kid educated is gonna be pure intelligence. #2 will be the amount of work they want to put in. IF their parents push them or they push themselves they will do well.

This is definitely true. If you want to know how just read up on the processes they're teaching to solve simple addition/subtraction problems. It's much more complicated with tons more steps. The answer isn't even important anymore, just the process. It's absolute shite.
