"Government is dumbing down schools" says former Director of Education

[Laguna]

According to a woman who used to work for the United States government, the government officials who operate the United States education system, as well as other education systems, are deliberately dumbing down today's youth. I know that they do this to a certain extent in order to create docile workers, which is what school is basically for, creating a work force. However, I'm not sure it's to the extent that the woman is talking about. What do you guys think?

My first response is that we need to get the federal gov't out of the education business and everything else not specifically delegated to them by the Constitution. I'll watch the vid to respond further.
