Egads. Some of these people are voters. The rest WILL be voters.
...This exam, given in 23
countries, assessed the thinking abilities and workplace skills of
adults. It focused on literacy, math and technological problem-solving.
The goal was to figure out how prepared people are to work in a complex,
modern society.
And U.S. millennials performed horribly.
That
might even be an understatement, given the extent of the American
shortcomings. No matter how you sliced the data – by class, by race, by
education – young Americans were laggards compared to their
international peers. In every subject, U.S. millennials ranked at the
bottom or very close to it, according to a new study by testing company
ETS....--quoted at Vox
Millennials are somewhere between 12 and 35 years of age.
God help us.
