To answer the original question are people getting dumber the answer is yes. The next question is why? Well we have an elite group of people, well at least they think that they are better then everyone else, and they believe that they have the right to rule the world and we are their slaves.
Here is a little history that starts to explain why we are at where we are today. This is the agenda as stated by William Torrey Harris, US Commissioner of Education (1889 to 1906)
Looks like his plan been a smashing success!
Naturally us slaves are not suppose to be smart enough to question our master orders because that leads to all sorts of problems for them. Thus we need to be dumbed down so we are unable to ask any embarrassing questions. Here is an another interesting quote that us sheeple are not supposed to be aware of:
The from the “Army Admissions Tests”
illiteracy in:
1900’s was 2%
1940’s it was 4%
1950’s it raised to 19%.
1970’s it climbed to 27%.
It would seem that our current education system is working just the way they planed it.
Many people have been conditioned to think that what happened two weeks ago is ancient history and anything that might happen two week from now is way to far in the future to worry about. Yet these so called “elite” have a slightly longer time frame. As you can see their planning goes on for years, even decades in advance.
They have long envisioned a two class society, with them the elite on top and everyone else as a virtual slave to supply them with all their needs. Of course that was not likely to happen if there is an informed and educated populace. Thus they set about this degrading the quality of the public school system. Naturally this was done in the name of fairness for everyone. Thus everyone is entitled to and should preferably be forced to be publicly educated. Then the standards to graduate were then systematically reduced for everyone, that way we will not hurt someone’s feelings by saying they are smart enough to graduate.
As a result back then in the 1900’s most people were quite literate and able to read and write fluently. Today about one in three people are functionally illiterate.
So where does that leave us? Well everything you have been taught, everything you know or think you know about the history of the world, religion, politics, etc. much of it is probably wrong. Thus it is time to take of the blinders and start seeing the world as it really is. The truth will set you free, but first it is going to really piss you off.

He believed children were property and the state had a compelling interest in disposing of them as it pleased. Some would receive intellectual training, most not. Any distinction that can be made between Harris and later weak-curriculum advocates (those interested in stupefaction for everyone) is far less important then substantial agreement in both camps that parents or local tradition could no longer determine the individual child’s future.

This reform is not new. It started in the early 1900s when John D. Rockefeller, Jr.’s Director of Charity for the Rockefeller Foundation, Frederick T. Gates, set up the Southern Education Board. In 1913 the organization was incorporated into the General Education Board. These boards set in motion “the deliberate dumbing down of America”. In Frederick T. Gates’ “The Country School of Tomorrow” Occasional Papers No. 1 (General Education Board, New York, 1913) was a section entitled “A Vision of the Remedy” in which he wrote:
“Is there aught a remedy for this neglect of rural life? Let us, at least, yield ourselves to the gratifications of a beautiful dream that there is. In our dream, we have limitless resources, and the people yield themselves with perfect docility to our moulding hand. The present educational conventions fade from our minds; and unhampered by tradition, we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive rural folk. We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or of science. We are not to raise up from among them authors, orators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians. Nor will we cherish even the humbler ambition to raise up from among them lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen, of whom we now have ample supply.”
