I wouldn't guarantee they'd know things like how many people are in the US or any politics based question (I've seen him ask VP before) but the simple math and such they could. Don't give up all hope on humanity. I will add an asterisk that I live in a pretty conservative area so there isn't a lot of the political murking that feels up classrooms in more liberal areas. I can't speak for those.

It's a numbers game, ask 100s if not 1000s of people and edit together the string of 10 or so people that gave dumb answers who might have even been instructed to give dumb answers. And what's worse is you test this yourself by going out in the street and ask these same questions and you'll see that most people know the answers to them.

      But imagine how it would be abused though...imagine the question "How many genders are there?" and then preventing people from voting when they provide the correct answer of 2.

      It's called the war of 1812 because that's how many people died in it. and since it takes 9 months for a human to be born, 9 months times 1812 is 16308. In years that's 1359 which is the year when the war happened.

So no verb, adverg, noun, pronoun, predicate of a sentence type questions. The mathematics questions were all just arithmetic and order of operations questions.

    • @inviso87
      @inviso87 2 года назад +13

      Most kids don't meet testing requirements for graduation already. So they instead either have to score high enough on the SAT, pass the ASVAB (military version of testing) or other type of assessment, or what a lot of kids do...go to a "remedial" class their senior year where they are taught the exact testing questions, can use those notes, and then take a 2-3 question assessment on those questions that the teacher reviews before submitting to the school who then submits to the state. A lot of people don't really know how dumbed down it truly is already. What's happening in education is truly sinful. And before people blame teachers, this isn't coming from them. Teachers hate the system and think it's a sham.

      I dunno, I think it kinda goes both ways and the teachers are at fault as well. It wasn’t my parents job to teach me this stuff. Hell, my friends mom couldn’t even do basic math and my friend and his siblings actually ended up teaching her what they learned at school. And we all went to a public school. Maybe she just encouraged/cared enough, but still.

      @@tiamod It is a parent's job to teach these basic things actually. If a child can't read properly or have a good vocabulary before they even start school then they're always doomed to be behind. Parent's need to continue to teach and support their own children before, during and after their school years. Anything else is a failure.

      Is it possible these kids have never handled actual cash - what's a penny or a quarter if all you've ever done is swipe a card?
