    General education in the US is underfunded on purpose. It’s how the right have won on every issue that counts. Distracted, lazy, frightened and greedy. These are the levers the media pull to get whatever the billionaires want to happen. They tried it with Smedley Butler way back when and learned their lesson. Have the dumbass voter just do what they want with outrage. It doesn’t matter who’s president or who’s in Congress. It matters what’s on the news and who they can pay to put it there. The rest falls into place.
