When Secretary Duncan offers misleading claims about international test scores and bemoans the state of public schools for failing to provide us with a world-class workforce, and almost no one raises a voice in protest (except those of within the field of education, only to be demonized for protesting), I am tempted to think that we are simply getting what we deserve--like Paul at the end of Player Piano:
"And that left Paul. 'To a better world,' he started to say, but he cut the toast short, thinking of the people of Ilium, already eager to recreate the same old nightmare."
