My Friend, please allow me to explain it to you.
It is part of the plan in dumbing down America, the dumber we are the easier it is to lie to us. Take this election as an example; no-one is talking about the real issues facing this nation, i.e. torture vs morals, etc etc.
Back when I was a kid (1970s) the news was the news, now it is sports, and actor/actress or any other mind numbing subject. People can name all the players of their favorite football team, but can name who is in congress representing them.
This is the America the Right and the Left have built, we need to rid ourselves from these demons an elect people who care about this nation and not what their party can gain.

Ignorance is the main reason. Lack of education. You're a possible example of this. Such an illiterate message! Maybe if you learn some things, like perhaps about that "stupid roman gut", you'd be able to see the world more clearly.
BTW, people on this world will always be "dieing" and suffering. The world's major civilized religions address this. Here's another chance for you to gain some wisdom and education and, in the process, improving your own little corner of the world.
Also BTW, many people are doing much about suffering in the world. You could learn about this as well. You could also pitch in yourself. Your heart seems to be in the right place, but your brain needs to play catch-up. Go for improvement - good luck.

I'm not entirely clear who or what you are criticizing, however, your paragraph seems to be a perfect example of the degredation of human intelligence, or at least, the lack of a desire to learn. Your paragraph is filled with spelling and grammar errors, and yet you criticize the institutions which seek to educate you. For example, the purpose of studying history is to recognize mistakes that people in the past have made, so that we do not repeat those same mistakes. If you have no interest in understanding the consequences of actions, and the reasons that political/social events occur, I cannot see how you can legitimately criticize current political decisions.
You also say that there is death and suffering around you, but claim you cannot do anything about it because you are forced to go to school, which is a completely untrue statement. If you believe that you have the capacity to change society for the better, there's no reason why you cannot spend your time outside of school fufilling that goal.

I take it that you are a very young person? yet, you have asked a very important question, 1st let me say please read your history and learn from the past , if not we are certaintly going to make the same mistakes we did in the past,now your question, when the integration laws wer passed, no one knew what effect it would have on our country, but, our courts and laws saw fit to lower our sat, entrance exams, so the minotities would be eligable for entering colleges their score had to be 50 at the time and whites 70 , and as the years have passed they have lowered the scores more and now are thinking about doing away with any type of tests or scoring , to insure more miorities become eligable
while India, china, korea, and Japan have raised their level of scoring, and they came in ahead of the U,S, this year in technology, the U,S, came in 5th place, when before we were in 1st place, many countries are beating the U,S, in manufactring , science, etc, because the government and courts are dumbing down America, they think it is more important to be politically correct , , than to have a strong country whos people are intelligent, You will get a lot of crap from these bleeding hearts and liberals who will kill you if you call them prejudice , and they will be politically correct if it cost them their kids , country etc, brain washed ???? only Americans and westerns are lowering their standards, while others are getting ahead of our training programs, look at asia, and some other countries then decide for your self,

My ten-year-old niece is smarter than you are on a good day. If you want to accuse people of being dumb, than perhaps you ought to, at least, use the spell check. Poor spelling and then not even using the tools Yahoo supplies you with to compensate for it, shows incredible stupidity! Then you actually promote the assassination of the President here? And you call other people dumb?! You do know, being as intelligent as you claim, that just saying that here is a federal offense? Or are you so stupid as to not care? Why don't you a) pay attention in sCHool so you can learn enough to call yourself intelligent and not be lying and b) get out there afterward and do something about whatever it is YOUR whining about.

Humans are continuing to get dumber because the standards continue to get lowered. Instead of focusing teachers' time and attention on the intelligent kids in school, they focus their attention on the kids with learning disabilities. In the meantime the smart kids in class have to sit there bored and wait for everyone else to catch up. The smart kids aren't challenged so they never realize their potential while the stupid kids continue to be stupid. The end result is that our society never advances in intelligence.

Honey they smash your nails! And its no longer in easy terms a one time concern, you will desire to maintenance them each month. try those on the drugstore, that provides you with a flavor of what they're. generally in issues like this, i'm on the youngsters section, yet i think of that your mom is powerful. in case you cna't maintenance them or you be certain you do no longer desire them anymore, your nails would be ruined. they gained't be everyday until eventually an entire new nail is presented in, which would be some years. in basic terms get the drugstore ones for now, and in case you nonetheless desire them while your older, then get them. yet for now, in basic terms save on with manicures. And in order that which you comprehend i'm 13 additionally. So i'm no longer yet another mom on right here, in basic terms an fyi.

You're English is really bad. Maybe you should be part of those people who are not supposed to post on here or do anything but go to dumb school. And BTW, it's not skool, unless you are talking about play skool, which makes cool baby toys.

That is because just some people are doing the thinking with all the technology you don't have to think so then you don't develop your sense of learning. Computers are now doing the thinking for humans and humans are not learning anything but reeling on computers to solve there questions or problems.

Instead of sitting in your boring "skool" ask your teacher to at least explain what a spell checker (it's not witchcraft) does and how to work it.
Than, resubmit your question.
