The Trump administration has declined to release nearly $7 billion in federal funding that helps pay for after-school and summer programs, support for students learning English, teacher training and other services.
The Trump administration is seeking to cut the only federal after-school programming in the nation that funds activities that reach about 1.4 million students nationwide.

#9: Hi Danni. You said it. Look how well the students in China eat, study, and learn. Meanwhile in the US we can't feed our students but we are teaching them active-shooter drills in school, like the "Duck-and-cover" drills we did during the Cold War.
Republicans wrecked our education system just to keep the masses dumb and the oligarchs wealthy.

#11: The snowball became an avalanche, Doc, and we're at the bottom. The NRA, hate radio/TV, 'state's rights polemicists,' white supremacy, faux Christianity, "Manifest Destiny," and lobbying groups, have synthesized well, morphing into the dystopia we have today. The "I got mine and I'm keeping it" meme is the dominant culture for 49.8% of Americans. Throw in the "Bread and circuses" (UFC, NFL, MLB) and Americans quickly forget about the core issues of poverty, daily gun deaths, or cuts to Medicaid/Medicare/Social Security: as1.ftcdn.net
Good luck with the grandkid.

Intelligence -- the ability to learn, reason and solve problems -- is at the forefront of behavioural genetic research. Intelligence is highly heritable and predicts important educational, occupational and health outcomes better than any other trait.
Recent genome-wide association studies have successfully identified inherited genome sequence differences that account for 20% of the 50% heritability of intelligence. ...
OK, so less than 50% of intelligence seems to be genome related?

Lyrics excerpt ...
...
One nation
Under God
Has turned into
One nation under the influence
Of one drug
[Hook:]
Television, the drug of the Nation
Breeding ignorance and feeding radiation
[Verse I]
T.V. it
Satellite links
Our United States of Unconsciousness
Apathetic therapeutic and extremely addictive
The methadone metronome pumping out
150 channels 24 hours a day
You can flip through all of them
And still there's nothing worth watching
T.V. is the reason why less than 10 per cent of our
Nation reads books daily
Why most people think Central America
Means Kansas
Socialism means un-American
And Apartheid is a new headache remedy
Absorbed in it's world it's so hard to find us
It shapes our mind the most
Maybe the mother of our Nation
Should remind us
That we're sitting too close to...
[Verse II]
T.V. is
The stomping ground for political candidates
Where bears in the woods
Are chased by Grecian Formula'd
Bald eagles
T.V. is mechanized politic's
Remote control over the masses
Co-sponsored by environmentally safe gases
Watch for the PBS special
It's the perpetuation of the two party system
Where image takes precedence over wisdom
Where sound bite politics are served to
The fast food culture
Where straight teeth in your mouth
Are more important than the words
That come out of it
