How America made its children go crazy....

Our friend Spengler is foaming at the mouth over "the sorcerer's
apprentices in school psychology" who forgot that "learning
how to learn is the point of education."

His full indictment of the educational establishment essay is here.
Concluding paragraph is here:

"If China replaces us at the pre-eminent world power, it will
happen because their children are smarter, more persevering,
more ambitious and tougher than ours. And we will have no-
one to blame but ourselves for handing our kids over to
quacks and snake-oil salesmen."
