I do think one thing is important to realize. Many Americans do not read above a 7th grade level. To expect them to be educated on the issues by reading is a futile effort. One suggestion I have would be to make the equivalent of podcasts with factual information to bridge the illiteracy gap.
How sad that most r only at grade 7 level.
Actually, I believe the average reading for people in the United States are between the fifth and sixth grade level.
Yikes!
It's by design from those in power who've wanted to dumb down the masses for generations, they're succeeding by leaps and bounds, and instructors have been struggling to figure out how to stop them for almost as long.
Agreed.
Doug Ford has systematically been defunding education. Just introduced a plan to get teens into the general labour workforce rather than the stay in school scenario. He's an uneducated buffoon fleecing Ontarians. "Keep 'em stupid" should be his slogan, then pple vote CONservative. I believe
Whole-heartedly that the trades r integral & CAN pay well..but I also believe in finishing high-school cause most places won't hire without a diploma. His plan is to put teens in these jobs for less than minimum wage & work them to death cause they dont know their rights.
That's what they've been doing in the US since the 80's and likely even earlier that they were setting it up and trying it out in some of the poorest areas. I've had a dozen friends die from in the job injuries or just being worked mercilessly because they didn't know their rights.
Like, how r teens supposed to know workers' rights & workplace safety standards? My daughters school had a program for grades 11 & 12 to teach them that & go to seminars to learn the ins & outs about trade working. Now Ford wants them to enter trade work as young as 16?
Not sure if many of the illiterates listen to podcasts, though. I believe the true reason is MSM & the orange turd controlling it. The late night talk shows r doing an awesome job though. Ergo, his retaliation against them.
We should run that up the flag pole. Start with our president. Quick. Before the dementia makes it moot.
