That was a pretty interesting read, I think the guy makes some good points, I mean there are issues with our education system, the description of the end of the line college students kind of nails that.
I was actually just watching a documentary today called Stupid in America, its a 20/20 one, but one of the things it mentioned about our public school education was really interesting to me. Apparently when american elementary school students are compared with european students (Belgium was the example given) we rate above average. But later, when comparing high school americans with the europeans we are incredibly below average. 20/20 was argueing that its because theres something wrong with our school system, and that those tests prove it. The longer kids stay in american schools, the worse off they get compared to other kids. Anyway, I just thought I'd throw it out there. Heres the link to that doc if anyone wants to watch it:
