    Very True. Part of the problem is the "P.C." crap they are getting is school. We have watched the quality (and accuracy) of education nosedive over the last ten years. We still have two children in high school, and this year the school started using the common core method (which is nothing more than the old Soviet system, Lyndon Johnson tried back in 1964.) Geography and history are not a priority in today's educational system.
