This takes some liberties with what Carlin really said.
"There’s a reason that education sucks. And it’s the same reason that it will never ever, ever be fixed. It’s never going to get any better. Don’t look for it. Be happy with what you got. Because THE OWNERS OF THIS COUNTRY DON’T WANT THAT.

We might as well just let them. We are going to have to completely over haul everything from the ground up when dems take over again

If George had been alive in 2015, NONE OF THIS, would be happening!

By HIMSELF, his commentaries on The First Felon running for President then, would have reminded more than enough Americans to have never thought once about voting for tRump.
He KNEW who tRump is and would have schooled America.

Trump is tearing down our government, setting the stage for martial law, and rejecting the Supreme Court’s authority. He wants absolute power. We must stand up now to defend democracy before it's too late!

The problem then will be finding skilled workers.
Because foreigners to fill the high education occupations will be too smart to risk working there.

Privatize. Enrich the rich. Destroy the poor they make poor.

Completely right! I keep a copy of this bit to remind myself that it’s been this way all my life. I’m 67 years old! Billionaires are really useless.

George Orwell stated it very accurately. Agree with the sentiment

NPC Americans are what J.Edgar Hoover & Alan Dulles wanted. Hollywood made it happen for them in the 1960’s. We suck because we amused ourselves till we got stupid. All because of Red scares & Dispensationalism superstitions always appeals to the wallets of paranoid consumer bigots.
