Education Has Been Declining and Not Just Among the Black Population or The Inner Cities

SEE HERE Walter Williams gives a sad account of what amounts to malfeasance of educators. Giving young people the idea that they are doing well when they are simply being well behaved is criminal. The schools are increasingly falling short of the performance of the schools of the past. I like to collect old books and among the most interesting are old school books. They are almost always much much more advanced than current school books of the same grade. Don't worry, the educators have all sorts of nonsensical excuses for this phenomenon, but none of them are really true. The truth is that they simply are not educating the way they did in the past. It's tragic. It is cheating the young, and ultimately it is destroying the nation. We need education reform now.
