Remember what I said a couple months ago? That America is going to lose its higher standard of living and everything that made up the American Century, because of the ignorances that permeates the children of the future?
Today a literarcy study came out for college grads, and the results were downright appalling. The kind of stuff that makes you wonder, "will my children hear that high pitched Punjabi voice as his boss in a wage slave job?"
I said it before, and I'll say it again. American kids would rather be "cool" than no how to analyze the works of Marcel Proust or even Jonathan Frazen for that matter.
The test found steep declines in the English literacy of Hispanics in the United States, and significant increases among blacks and Asians. Which is really no surprise -- niggas can't get ahead no matter how hard they try -- if they continue to do it they way they have been doing it since the end of slavery (has it really ended though?)
When the literarcy test was last administered, in 1992, 40 percent of the nation's college graduates scored at the proficient level, meaning that they were able to read lengthy, complex English texts and draw complicated inferences. But on the 2003 test, only 31 percent of the graduates demonstrated those high-level skills. There were 26.4 million college graduates. What that's like 7.9 million kids have no business getting their diploma, let alone the fact that the money they spent on so-called higher education was wasted, worse then if they burnt it with naplam, 'cause these idiots thought they were learning something.
The college graduates who in 2003 failed to demonstrate proficiency included 53 percent who scored at the intermediate level and 14 percent who scored at the basic level, meaning they could read and understand short, commonplace prose texts.
Three percent of college graduates who took the test in 2003, representing some 800,000 Americans, demonstrated "below basic" literacy, meaning that they could not perform more than the simplest skills, like locating easily identifiable information in short prose.
Short prose? Oh, you mean like the dumbass paragraphs in MAXIM or PC GAMER or PEOPLE or COSMO or US WEEKLY... the kind of shite I'be been claiming is designed to make people more and more dumb, as in unedjumacated.
I'm Kanye West is saying, should've been a college drop-out, then you wouldn't have to worry about your literacy ability... you'd have an excuse! To be so dumb, and confident.
What's next? I don't know, do you? Who am I? I am someone who makes films. What do I do? I look through viewfinders. And how do I live? I live by the skin of my teeth.
