Does anyone remember where we started this mess?
Yes.
1. Education has been subverted by socialist-minded liberals for several generations.
2. Knowledge has devolved into something that is only important for a moment in each person's day...and then usually just to figure out why their cell phone has poor reception and what flavor of coffee they want to order.
3. Critical thinking stopped with our generation......(which is just one of the reasons I value the core members of this group).
4. Speed isn't a concern any longer.....Teachers don't want to teach what the young need to know...and youngsters don't want to listen to older farts like us who could actually impart knowledge that is useful.
How's that?

For the Patriots of this country, the Constitution is second only to the Bible for most. For those who love this country, but do not share my personal beliefs, it is their Bible. To them nothing comes before the Constitution of these United States of America. For this we are all labeled potential terrorists. ~ Dean Garrison
