give a negative commentary about the US educational system all you want, fact is more people leave their home country to attend high school and college in the US than any other nation in the world.

I'm failing to see the obvious? Yea i guess i can't look past peoples stupitidy, its too hard for me, im sorry. if someone cant answer a simple question about geography which was tought in elementary school then i have a right to make fun of them.
Um..i said high school in US is easier, i didnt talk about how many people go where or why. I really dont care. If you wanna argue about who's more intellegent, why dont you take an average 10th grade Japanese student and 10th grade American student and give them test in math and see who scores higher.
As far as people coming here for college, well yea thats true, US has the most opportunities in the world and most of the time companies here don't give a crap about diplomas from other places. So you have one choice, come here and get your education. Well maybe with an execption of pilots. More then 50% of my school were Europeans, do you know why?
BECAUSE ITS EASIER, AND CHEAPER!!!. It was cheaper for them to come to US, get their lisence, go back and convert their lisences to European standards then it was to stay there and get it in thier home country. How do i know? they told me. Or maybe you would like to argue about that too? But you're right your average Lowe's employee doesnt have to know anything about Europe, its ok, stay ignorant - like they told you in highschool at least you tryed.
