Literacy rates have been falling off a cliff for decades.

If theres no literacy, there is no critical thinking.

The only solution is to deliver high quality education to all folks and create engaging environments for it to be delivered.

Ultimately it comes down to influencing folks to think deeper about whats going on around them.

Most of the people between the age of 13-30ish right now are kinda screwed and pretty much a write off imo.
