Intercollegiate Studies Institute performed an annual “Civics Literacy” survey for six or seven years in a row, tracking trends in the general population with isolation of various demographics. While all demographics showed levels of civics literacy that would not be able to pass the dumbed down quiz prospective naturalized citizens are required to take, two things stood out to me:
1. High School seniors consistently out-performed college seniors, and
2. The lowest scoring demographic was. . . elected officials.
I seem to recall that the results have been this way for decades. I’ve long been of the opinion that the main purpose of many “educators” is to deconstruct the education people receive at home so that the country can be led to its destruction.
It’s deliberate “misunderedumacation,” and it begins WELL before teachers enter pubschool classrooms to indoctrinate young minds. In fact, the teachers themselves are now (for the most part in many locales) so thoroughly brainwashed that they actually believe they are educating young minds instead of what they are doing: destroying them.
