But sure, yeah, tell me about that fancy degree you have

Since I think I had a harder curriculum in HIGH SCHOOL.

In North Carolina, 26 percent of UNC system students earned a “D,” “F,” or “W” (a withdrawal) in mathematics and statistics courses between fall 2015 and spring 2018. 
But instead of investigating ways to improve math education, North Carolina university leaders have decided to create alternate “pathways” for students who are less math-minded. According to UNC administrators, gateway and entry-level math courses—like college algebra—are “stumbling blocks” for too many students.

1)  The fact that these college kids are failing ENTRY LEVEL COURSES is an indictment of the publik skool sistim that produced them.  But if you don't know my opinion on the publik skool sistim by now, let me sum it up for you in a few short sentences:  Burn the publik skool sistim and the Department of "Education" to the ground.  Bulldoze the ashes.  Salt the earth where it stood so that it will be barren for centuries, and leave it as a warning to everyone else who passes by.

2)  This is just more confirmation that the universities and colleges in this country are nothing more than indoctrination centers instead of places of higher learning.  Oh look, little Johnny can't find the value of x.  Let's just take that pesky old x out of there, shall we?  That mean old x should be bothering you!  Here's your safe space!  Don't forget to vote Democrat!

And if you can't find the value of x, which is a basic mathematical concept, then you probably can't understand the concept of economics, either macro or micro, which means that you can't even be taught why socialism is so bad for a country.  You can only be indoctrinated to regurgitate the answers that your Marxist professors want to hear.

When this country eventually falls into chaos and war, one of the main causes will be the indoctrination of generations of kids by the university system, who taught them to emote rather than to think, and who poisoned their minds and their souls rather than provided ways to uplift and expand.
