Too bad all of us can't go sit in all the classrooms in the country and listen to what is actually being "taught" to our youngsters.
Most people 200 years ago in this country, could read and write and had at least an idea of why and how this country was founded. Before telephones, TV, wireless, computers, email, electric lights, cars, etc etc. They had candles to read by, very few books, an occasional newspaper, the Bible and maybe Pilgrims Progress, and if they were lucky, a quill pen and maybe a piece of paper.
Most of all, they had the Will to learn. There is no excuse today for ANYONE not to learn unless they are totally incapable. |
