More (not so) fun facts:

54% of American adults read below a 6th grade level.

21% read below a 5th grade level, which is considered functionally illiterate.

High immigration numbers don't fully explain it either, as first gen immigrants only make up about 1/3 of those with low literacy.

You know what's even better?

The next generation isn't going to be able to read nor focus on anything for more than 60 seconds, and after it comes to pass there still won't be any meaningful regulation of social media either.
