School textbooks, newspapers and TV news all "dumbed down" to keep America voting for evil politicians

 

“Common Core” curriculum in U.S. bent on crafting idiots, Feds spear-head the “Neanderthals” with stupid problems to solve. How can a child ever learn to think on his/her feet when all you give them are multiple choice questions? Sometimes the answers to life are designed on the spot, they’re not all presented as A, B, C, D or all or none of the above.

 

How can a child develop his/her brain when all you give them to solve are fill-in-the-blank questions? Again, this does not require the child to figure anything out, only to recall rote memory skills and dates and names.

 

How can a child ever make split decisions, and not stress out about them, if they learn math that has nothing to do with the real world? Business math should be core curriculum, not confusing word problems that don’t even have any relevancy to the real world, and real application to modern day life.

 

Kids are brilliant and technical, but they are also organic beings that like challenges and creative “thinking.” You can’t keep kids in a box all day, serving them boxed food, and asking them “boxed” questions that have only 5 boxed answers.

 

What happened to creative writing? What happened to essay questions? Are they just TOO HARD to grade, to quantify? The teachers certainly are NOT dumb. They could challenge the kids, but their arms are tied. No kids are allowed to sit in a circle and intelligently discuss the interesting stories of history or science, without some principal entering the room and shutting that teacher and that lesson plan down. “There will be no thinking done here that is not gradable! No student will be “left behind!”

 

Kids should be sitting at round tables having round table discussions about what REALLY matters, like how to run a business, how to pay your own bills on line or with a check and how to balance a checkbook. Kids should be taught how to be smart with money, and not fall for scams and stock market liars. Hollywood teaches just the opposite. Hollywood teaches you that you can be stupid if you act well, and you can do cocaine and go to jail, and when you get out, go right back to being a lying business man or woman and “leave the past behind.” Disney teaches girls they need to be rescued by a man to be happy. The core curriculum is cannon fodder in schools. It’s nearly useless. Kids who just spit back senseless facts (and lies) will get nowhere in life, and that seems to be the way the American core curriculum was written to be. Cannons (textbooks) need fundamental changes made to them to challenge today’s youth, with intelligence, morals, respect and infinite thinking and creativity.

 

Mike Adams the Health Ranger explains the predicament in laymen’s terms:

 

If you look around America today, mathematical mental illness is found everywhere. It's found in the federal budget, where numbers only mean what we are told they mean, not what they really mean. Mental illness is also found in medicine, where mentally ill victims of mercury in vaccines viciously attack parents who seek to protect their children from those very same vaccines. It's also found in the new "Common Core" curriculum, spearheaded by the federal government, which seems intentionally designed to make children mentally ill and as confused as possible.
