The USA remains one of the worst educated countries – unless you are rich and can afford one of the top schools. The general population is ignorant of science and maths and has a low literacy rate. Ranked 31st in the world way behind the UK and other European countries.
Despite being the world’s top economy there is no money for education because the Billionaires take a huge proportion (increased their wealth by 60% while ordinary people struggle) and a huge chunk goes on WAR!!
Since the war began on February 28, U.S. forces have launched more than 7,800 airstrikes targeting Iran’s navy, missile stockpiles and defence infrastructure
| Missile Type | Approx. Cost | Source |
|---|---|---|
| ICBM (Sentinel program) | $141 billion (program cost) | |
| Standard Missile‑2 (SM‑2) | ~$2 million each | |
| Cruise missiles | Between $1.8 million and $2 million, | |
| S‑500 system | $2.5 billion |
So next time you see those missiles going off in Iran – each one is a school!
