BEING AUTISTIC I would do the maths question differently. 0.12 I would divide by 10 = 0.012 and then X by 8 = 0.096 We just see things differently

@tews123 I'm severely dyslexic. I could not read or write at 13. Ive published 4 books that sell pretty well and get Amzn 4.5* and Goodreads 4.8* Yet at 54 I still can not write with a pen in front of people for the shame drilled into me by my teachers at school in the 1970's

LET ME EXPLAIN - its a little long - I wrote this 8 years ago: In the late 1970's and early 80's computers became a thing and you could process lots of statistical data for the first time. And the political parties did... The data showed the GOP would be demographic-ed out of existence in a couple of decades. It also showed the GOP that stup!d badly educated people - amazingly - voted for them. Voted AGAINST their own interests, as blue-collar workers and for the GOP. So the GOP started to breed their own supporters. They systematically defunded education - in 1976 education was 5.7% of GDP. In 1983 it was 3.4% Some of the specific changes they made were to STOP teaching critical thinking skills, skills that ALLOW people to spot a lie. And it was wildly successful. Am3ric4 now has an uneducated subclass of 35% id!ots and it is enough to swing elections.

@JeremyMckay-b7k " But those are the top nations in the world at those rankings," Yeah thats just not true. Iran is one of the most educated countries on the planet, hen you have China, Taiwan is crazy well educated so is Japan. We look at "top universities" but only consider English language universities - so its total BS rankings. If you include all languages 9 of the top 10 are Chinese.

@Ikkeligeglad Dude that is astonishingly **** . There is 18 X MORE primary research being done in Chinese universities than in English language universities. Most things have NOT been invented in western countries they have been invented in western countries since the Industrial Revolution because money. That is no longer the case. Prior to the Industrial Revolution most inventions were from Persia [now Iran], China and India, the West was a nothing.
