That's nearly all of them (graduates)
> In early education, teachers told her to “stay in a corner and sleep” or “draw pictures for them.” In high school, she relied on speech-to-text programs for every assignment. Teachers knew. Administrators knew. Nobody did anything. Now she’s a freshman at UConn studying public policy — and she still can’t read the textbooks.

Sounds like everyone else failed. Every single other person failed. A:Not(I)~>Fail(A).

The same evidence (the only evidence) could have been presented as:

Mississippi is doing great for its kids. We should all follow them.

Instead it’s completely unnecessarily frames as “the political side that I don’t like is ruining everything”. There are instances (too many, unfortunately) where this is true. This isn’t one of them. In comparable Blue/Red states (CA vs TX, NY vs FL) the blue states are doing better, even if u think the blue state performances are also inexcusable.

Have people become incapable of talking normally and need to force everything into an enemy/ally frame? Or is this just rage bait, or ironically, the author “virtue” signaling to their own political tribe
