Open your schoolbooks, study (if you dont get it secure a tutor) , take tests, go to college and get a job. That simple. But without a dad to make you study (census facts), of course graduation rates suffer. And if we could add a significant proportion of that 15% to our #''s, we wouldnt be #22 in the world in graduation rates.
Lets just blame racism instead of getting to the root of the problem. Here's a fact: There are no tests for dunking ability when it comes to graduation rates. Study you lazy motherfucking americans, both black and white. Basketball wont start your 401k. Why need that though when government will feed you for free, give you free medical and pay you for your 10 kids.

High school graduation rate at record high. Improvement across races. -
Increase college graduates by 50%? Excellent. Millions more who will borrow tens of thousands in taxpayer subsidized loans, which increase demand for college education, driving the price even higher...then the graduates gets our with a worthless degree and start life with massive debt. Excellent plan.allpurpleallgold said:http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/01/22/graduation-rate-record-high-school-students_n_2522128.html

How about a system where those who aren't college material are honestly told that and they are steered toward training and vocations where they can make a solid living and not pay an unreasonable amount for that training? Or we can have psychology majors start life with $100k in debt and no marketable skill and pound our fists on the table that college grads working at the fast food place are worth $15 an hour. -
No degree is worthless. Some woman on MSNBC told me so.MikeDamone said:

Wow. I actually agree with Damone on this one. I'd better check for some flying swine or 25 degree temperatures in Phoenix next June.MikeDamone said:

Blacks aren't a higher percentage of the population than they were forty years ago. Maybe it has to do with 15 to 20 million illegals? They have one foot in the US & one in Mexico. They'll go back to Mexico for 6 months at a time sometimes. Obviously their kids aren't quite as likely to have 4.0s.

It really does. True story.....my dad told me I'd end up as a ditch digger before Caddyshack came out. And he was a judge

Don't forget the influence of jazz, gospel, and R&B on Rock 'N Roll. Nobody else Rocks like America and that comes directly from our racially diverse culture. Let the rest of the World suck on their higher test scores and grad rates. In America, math Rocks and math is the purist of all in sciences available to educated and uneducated alike providing we don't inhabit brainless places such as Kansas.puppylove_sugarsteel said:Is because of minority population explosion? Most specifically black kids and their massive high school failure and dropout rates? Why should America suffer a black eye because blacks have no parenting and thus education discipline.
The rest of the world continues to laugh at us, but at least we can dunk basketballs and catch footballs.
America's public education is a wayward shambles, but no more so than our Third World health care system that denies access to millions of citizens regardless of race, religion, ethnicity, or education. And who but a semi-illiterate, voter ineligible society could come up with something as inane and useless as a U.S. Congress and (50) state legislatures?
What are gallery countries like Sweden, Japan, Germany, etc. really worth toward the advancement of human kind while America has wars to fight, terrorist to kill, and anarchy within our freedom loving borders to govern? When will Texas and a dozen other backward beggar states give us a break and secede? Are you feeling the enormity of America's brain-sapping powers yet?

America doesn't deny access to healthcare. My wife just spent a week in ICU on a ventilator and we don't have insurance. They still treated her like a queen.
Thank God we got in before the death panels take effect. Under Obamacare America will deny access to healthcare. Its called rationing
