Okay. So what would you propose as a solution? I would say, maybe the government should just fund the public schools without telling them what to teach. Let the students demonstrate their ability to become intelligent, independent adults. For heaven's sake, don't judge their education based upon how well they do on a stupid multiple-choice test. They, as I said before, don't measure how educated a student is.
