California wins "Least Educated State"
2018-12-20

#15  I'd love to see a comparison of the dollars spent per student.

#14  I suspect this has a lot to do with schools inability/unwillingness to do anything about disruptive students. Everyones educations suffers and those disruptive students probably don't end up graduating anyway.

#13  I would have thought California would win "Most Stoned."

#12  When you have millions of Mexican peasants in your schools who aren't even literate in their own language it tends to drag the averages down a bit.

But weren't we told they are worth their weight in gold?

#11  This wouldn't be important if California doubled its public pensions, real estate prices and rents.

#10  OTOH, they did win "Most Vibrant!" for the 53rd
year running.

Could there be a correlation?

Nahh...

#9  Hillary's State Dept. lost $6 bil that has not been accounted for
As the ad says, that's just 'sofa money' compared to what State spends.

#8  If you flood places like California with unemployed and uneducated illegals, what do you expect? It's bound to drag down the statistics for literacy and employment rates. These illegals soak up a great deal of government benefits at taxpayer's expense. The cost of the wall would be small in comparison to the costs paid for having these illegals here.

Hillary's State Dept. lost $6 bil that has not been accounted for so far as I know. That is about what Trump is asking for building a wall. So screw the Dems and the uninterested Pubs. I hope they pay the price in the next election.

#7  What the actual “browning of America” looks like with illegal immigration and no standards for skills and education for those we pretend are going to be assimilated. Just bough a home in Nevada and leaving California after being a resident for 42 years.
