Correction: I am overseas. Currently in Europe, most of the time in Asia. America HAS LOST IT'S CREDIBILITY. IT IS A DONE DEAL!

Overall, it’s an educational problem. Those who voted for Trump and the MAGA voters.

Unfortunately the Southern States don’t seem to have the educational funds needed to hire top notch teachers.

I once spent time helping a 25 year old from Louisiana learn how to read. He grew up on a cattle farm and knew a great deal about farming.

He came aboard a ship as a deck hand.

He couldn’t read at a first grade level. I purchased some books. I taught him on my breaks.

He was interested.

He didn’t keep the job long. There were issues ashore. I lived in a different state. I gave him the books and asked him to find someone to continue teaching him. I hope he did.
