      which is really saying something, because education is incredibly terrible throughout the entirety of the US.

      It might not be a stretch to say they are among the lowest in Western countries, perhaps even the world.

        Now I’m curious who the lowest is. You’d have to define what “Western” is, quantify some ratings, and other static statistical definitions. I bet it’s Canada.

        Oh wait, no, we have the south. Shit.

        Yeah, it might be the US. I guess it depends on how the rankings work, when, and what countries are included.

        Might be important to make a wealth:edu ratio. We’re DEFINITELY lowest in that regard. I’d put money on that. Probably lowest or very close to lowest in anything wealth:outcome.
