Kinda interesting to watch. US is actively choosing the "anti-literacy" path forward, compared to all the other big guys in the game. Is there any other proper reason other than potentially bumping up the birth rates? It's not 1900s anymore, where the sheer manpower wins big wars anymore, as manufacturing, science and tech can sway it one way or another. I just don't get the endgame.
There is no reason to think there is an endgame, everything is reactionary and shortsighted.
Neo-feudalism. It's like original feudalism, but with the internet.
