What is weakening this country is public school graduates that cannot read, write or utilize basic mathematical skills.

How can a kid get ahead if they cannot add and subtract well enough to run a cash register? Even McDonald's requires this basic skill to get out of the kitchen.

How can a kid get ahead fi the failed public school system did not impart the skill necessary to read anything more complex than a street sign or welfare form?

Home schooling is not the problem. Union enforced school failure is the problem.

BTW - My kids are in a public school.
