About I do not know where I took this shot. I think I was just driving about and saw a few flags...and slowed... then stopped... and took the shot.

I think the US literacy rate is right around 98%. I cannot tell people what to think... but I am dang glad they can at least read...

No, I don't see the situation that way at all.
I just get sad when people people say "America's the greatest" without regard to objective, comparative data against the other industrialized nations.

I don't say this to point out our flaws, I say this wanting to scream, "but we can do SO much better than we're doing now!"

I will confess that growing up, that was my own secret pleasure: Whatever I read is mine. Forever. No one can spoon into my brain and change the way I read it and understood it.

Yeah... well... I tend to think a bit more positive. The folks I meet and talk to, those I converse with daily... can read a newspaper. They can get the basics of life and living. As a conservative I can easily say, "They are part of this nation. They have the ability to understand and participate." As a liberal... you should at least enjoy and accept the fact that most people cannot argue Proust and Shakespeare and the musings of the the Loy children... but they can read enough to understand and comprehend what is passing day by day. Literacy does not mean dissection of Faust... it means taking information day by day from sources at hand. Literacy and "functional" literacy are different... yet the same. I hold to my posted comment. We are a literate nation. We may not offer our ruminations to the satisfaction of some... yet, we can read. Yes we can.... Conservatives expect effort. Liberals demand compliance. "Meet our expectations or deserve our disdain. We are sooooo much smarter and know better than you..."

I hold by my post... we are a literate nation. We can read.

What we read and how we dissect the information is no one's business other than the person who is making the effort.

I see the people and think, "Yes! They are making the effort! They are working to an end!"

I sense you see the people and say, "NO! You are doing it wrong! Do it MY way."
