American Public Education

The culture of the US is that 'We the GREATEST country ever, but you're so, so screwed if you try to leave.' They don't educate us like the rest of the world (who, by the way, can be considered 'more intelligent'.) They make it nearly impossible for someone to transfer countries - try moving to England with your license. Get a new one, apparently. Your Bachelor's degree? Not really as high as it is in the States.

 

We really should be able to 'Europeanise' the states - not government-wise, necessarily, but education-wise. It's the GDP that believes that the power of ONE EFFING NATION overrules the power of like TWENTY.

 

Wait. You state the obvious truth that we're the greatest country in the history of the world, and for that matter in the history of the universe, but then you suggest that we should adopt an educational system that must necessarily be worse than ours?

 

Where did you learn to think like that?

 

Oh, yeah. Sorry.

I lol'ed.

 

But yeah, that's basically how the US runs (corruptly) the education system. It's quite difficult for someone who lives here to move out, simply because they insist that the US use different standards for EVERYTHING.
