    Can’t find the Marx quote in the image attributable to him.

    Did I miss something or was Abraham Lincoln right when he said “Don’t believe everything you read on the internet”. I appreciate the sentiment, but still.

      On the one hand, “think of how stupid the average person is. Then realize half of them are dumber than that.”

      On the other hand, an educational system that was designed scientifically with data-driven best practices and not just what a bunch of fundamentalists in Texas think we should teach would also improve things greatly. As would, of course, strengthening the DoE and allocating DoD’s budget to education and infrastructure.
