We are more creative...In most countries they just memorize shyt they are given.

They can't think outside the box....all the new technological innovators tend to be Americans.

If anything parents are to blame.

Kids with 100% responsible parents tend to do better.
My father had his hand on my neck every night after school and made sure all my homework etc...was done and I was ready for the next exam.

Most Parents don't give a fukk. They want the school to do everything.

I agree, but I'm a teacher so I'm far too biased to weigh in objectively.

Politicians and Parents both share blame... We have a economy in debt but can find money for war, and yet will not keep schools from closing, making tuition cheaper, helping the underdeveloped. but we can give millions to foreign shytholes and not fix our own.
I would also add their "must add a reform to my resume" approach to educational reform is leading to teachers' jobs being completely redefined every few year.

Teacher's Union would also be a valid choice imo

whats the last thing an american truly invented?
we're still using the tech from the 80s
Let me flip the question back at you...where do all the technological advancement of the 21st century come from?

If you think we are still using technology from 80's then you live in a different world because the rest of the world goes where America goes in technology.
