People whose first language is English should speak it and type it properly.

Example: "lyk omfg did u c dat?"

That is NOT English. Just like bad manners, there is simply no excuse for it. What has happened to our education system over the years? Why has the U.S. government been dumbing down its people over the past 100 or so years?

I petition that people should be better educated. The government is not allowing people to learn to their fullest abilities. It is not a well known fact, but still a fact that 3rd graders in the 1800s could pass the high school exams that we have now. High schoolers today wouldn't even be able to pass a test from 7th grade in the 1800s. The government wants people to be unintelligent, because that gives the government more power over them. I just wish that people could stop being so blind to what the government is doing to them.
