Absolutely true. Hell, you ever see those simple grade school tests from yesteryear. Most today couldn't come close to passing them as adults, let alone as kids. On immigration, Tucker Carlson has it right. Hell, we're a nation of immigrants, we should allow regulated legal immigration and keep the best and brightest coming. With the illegals, we get way too many who come simply to take advantage of our generosity. We don't have a need for uneducated dishwashers ... we have machines for that. We need more folks who can contribute rather than take.
