Standards? Who needs standards? Or values? Or traditions? We're an Idiocracy now. All lowered to the basest level. It's the idiot left/commie way. Embrace the reality. Competition is evil and cruel, so it must be eliminated so all can be ""equal"".
The real problem is... there doesn't seem to be any will to reverse the damage that leftists like Obama and Ayers have, quite deliberately, done to this nation.
