@IterIntellectus We can fix that. Just start at the list for age 3 and work your way up. With love, from an old teacher:

It is done. Here are clickable links of over 400 books in the western canon, separated by age group. It's meant for all of you who want the best for your child's education and for your own as well. The good news? Emily Dickinson was right when she said of books: "How frugal is the chariot that bears the human soul." Link to the library below: ⬇️

@IterIntellectus Yeah I personally know someone that does not know how to read and write and relies entirely on the state. The board of ed has failed, shut it down for good.

@IterIntellectus Now ask @grok what’s the median number of books in American households. It will tell you all you need to know.

@IterIntellectus I ran a consumer business here in the US for many years and some of the emails and letters I’d receive showed people struggling with expressing themselves at all. I’m hopeful AI can help these people engage better with the world.

@IterIntellectus It's a problem but there's a large racial element to this that might help you sleep better. Or not, IDK.

@IterIntellectus What did they mean by "American"? Are we talking American on paper? Basketball Americans? Illegal aliens?

@IterIntellectus what they mean to say is that as the white population continues to decline these numbers will get worse

@IterIntellectus "US adults" means immigrants are included. Well duh, that's what happens when you import tens of millions of illiterates.

@IterIntellectus Not surprising… when you stop teaching grammar, proper pronunciation, reading of actual literature as homework assignments… you get exactly that societal literacy picture. And it’s not just an issue in North America, which makes it even more worrying…

@IterIntellectus This is true in the UK as well, having worked with low skilled adults. About half of all adults do not have English skills to A-C level.

@IterIntellectus Over 50% of American adults have sub 6th grade literacy. Roughly 28% are not literate at all. It is important to remember this at all times.

@IterIntellectus Turns out that inviting a hundred million+ legal and illegal people into your country from origin countries who have sub 80 IQ's is a bad idea for every statistic that matters.

@IterIntellectus How is this possible? I mean, how is it possible to spend what the US spends on public education and still end up with this result?

@IterIntellectus The colored people are the ones who aren't literate and also suck at math. There. I just explained. Take a look at the math scores of the LeBron James high school or Chicago inner city test scores.
