American education system really peaked with "The Oregon Trail Generation" before No Child Left Behind...

And that's a thought that's kept me awake more than a few nights, because we still didn't get a good education.

Ever since the focus has been short term cramming for tests. All the shit that got tossed out was about critical thinking and empathy, and somehow people are still shocked later generations are lacking both at concerning levels.
