As if we needed more proof, here is yet another study documenting that young people today have the average IQ of bricks. Allow me to quote:

"...most college students cannot handle many complex but common tasks, from understanding credit card offers to comparing the cost per ounce of food..." My dead grandmother could compare the cost of food, and she had seven years of schooling back in the 20s and 30s. Come to think of it, she probably still could, if you dug her up.

"More than 50 percent of students at four-year schools and more than 75 percent at two-year colleges lacked the skills to perform complex literacy tasks. That means they could not interpret a table about exercise and blood pressure, understand the arguments of newspaper editorials, compare credit card offers with different interest rates and annual fees or summarize results of a survey about parental involvement in school." I'll cut 'em some slack on not understanding newspaper editorials, they may have been tested using the NY Times' editorials, and no one outside the Democratic party's loony wing can understand the arguments made there.

"Almost 20 percent of students pursuing four-year degrees had only basic quantitative skills. For example, the students could not estimate if their car had enough gas to get to the service station." Free investment tip: Start buying shares in road rescue companies.
