Excerpt:
"Last week, Elon Musk, Vivek Ramaswamy, and Jordan Peterson helped expose the failures of Illinois’ public education system on X. Their engagement with a Wirepoints report, “Illinois education 2022: Not a single student can do math at grade level in 53 schools. For reading, it’s 30 schools,” revealed the thousands of students trapped in completely failing schools in 2022.

But those results are now old news. Wirepoints has just run the new Illinois State Board of Education (ISBE) 2023 Report Card data and the outcomes are worse even though the impacts of covid are another year behind us.

In 2023, there were 67 Illinois schools where not a single student tested proficient in math and 32 where no student tested proficient in reading. What’s worse, officials in those schools graduated nearly 70% of their students.

More than 12,000 students attend Illinois’ zero-proficiency schools. Every single one of those children will struggle in life because they lack basic reading and math skills. "

    As a taxpayer, I watch my property taxes continually rise year after year. A major portion of my property taxes goes to "education" after all its for the "children" --cry me an 'effing river you scummy bleeding heart leftists - and Johnny and Susie still can't do the three Rs, nor make change.
    Stop the World...I want OFF!

      Don't blame you.
      I got off that particular wheel 20+ years ago.
      I despise property taxes. Effectively it's a mortgage payment that is never paid off, and as you noted, it's used to enslave us all.
      Obviously I still get stuck with a rental payment, some of which goes to brainwash children, but I have plans to leave that behind as well.

    And by the charts some of those schools spend $50k or more per student. Hey, what's $50k when you can't do math or read an article explaining how poorly they are doing.

    I'm willing to bet those students can paraphrase Karl Marx and spew left wing extremist mantra all day. Must be what they are told or shown in a video because they likely couldn't read it.

    Reminds me of a little ditty in Chicago I saw in a video after Obummer got elected:

    Street interviewer: "Who did you vote for?"
    Passer by: "Obama 'cause he gonna get me a car and put gas in it for me. He gots a stash!"
    Interviewer: "A stash? Where did he get it?"
    Passer by: " I dunno but he gots a stash and gonna give me some!"

    What else do the students of Illinois need to know?
