From a reader:

Really? This is “education’s fault?” This is the “liberal’s” fault? This is the fault of all of us allowing society to lose its moral compass starting with the family structure. It is about our widening class system and people not caring about one another. This is not about what education does not do nor is it a liberal problem; it is a societal problem linked to lobbyists (NRA) and politics (big money & power!)
