These kids are much different these days.  The educational system is garbage and getting worse every year spitting out \"graduates\" who can't even read at a level higher than 7th grade.   And just as I was typing this out, Fox News just reported on a recent study that found that a whopping 74 percent of high school graduates will not qualify for military service.  WOW!!!  That says a whole lot about this generation of \"graduates\".  But we have representatives like AOC and Bernie who pander to these nitwits by wanting to give them free everything.  We're in trouble. Deep trouble.","replyToPid":0}
