Why exactly?

American education is terminal rather than building lifelong skills.

Folks associate reading with an assignment instead of a skill that needs to be refine.

I mean if you a kid or a teenager okay. But how do adults just be like " I don't read books a lot." How the fukk does that happen?

In school they make you read the same boring books over and over again and overanalyze ever detail, so most people just assume that reading books is always boring and they stop doing it after they finish school. I used to read a crazy amount of books when I was a kid. Like a new 300 page book every day or two. But I have a lot of stuff going on nowadays so I don’t read as much as I used to. I agree that it’s sad when people don’t read at all though.
