You are very much plugged into the Matrix and don't even know it.

Alarming & scary - How much the masses have been dumbed down

http://theeconomiccollapseblog.com/archives/its-official-americans-r-stupid

America is where this is most noticeable, but it's also spreading around the globe, as "education/schooling" is being deliberately degraded in other countries as well.
(it's part of the NWO agenda of course- to turn people into compliant automatons)

Countries like China, Finland and Korea are bucking the trend, do not know about Russia though.

In India, there is no specific agenda in
dumbing down the masses, the lack of infrastructure for educating the masses is sufficient to keep them below par. Elites in India are quite smart though and educate themselves privately.

I would disagree about quality of education in USA though, the level in Masters degree programs is definitely excellent.

The problem would be acute in the 7th to 12th Grade school level. The lack of fundamentals there is the reason other nations are doing well in comparative tests. IMHO it is incorrect to think that a 4 year college education can overcome deficiencies of high school, the focus is different in colleges.
