Stupidity in America?

I hear a lot of people talking about problems with education in America, with Americans being misinformed or stupid, etc. I have also heard many ideas to try and solve this problem. Some people say there should be more American History classes in school, some people advocate Voucher programs, and still some say we should just increase funding. Others say things are fine as they are. What do you think? Here's a video that should bring about some interesting discussion that I found on youtube. I hope you all enjoy it, and I'd like to hear what your reaction(s) are.

Please refrain from posting until you have at least seen the video.

Actually I'm talking about closing down all schools or at least not forcing children to attend. Fuck compulsory "education".
