Graduation season is upon us, which means yearbooks are being distributed, along with their priceless, pimply-faced pictures and misguided quotes, straight from the mouths of America’s youth.

One such quote is currently going viral on social media, not for its well-stated wisdom, but because it is so undeniably cringe-worthy that it perfectly exemplifies the massive shit show known as our public education system.

High school senior Haley Jackson claimed that if she had founded America, she “would create equal rights for women, such as equal pay, jobs for women, and I would end women sufferage.”

Townhall’s Christine Rousselle explained why Jackson’s statement is so utterly absurd (in case the American education system failed you, as well):

“Suffrage, of course, is the right to vote. “Sufferage” is not a word. While women in colonial America certainly had fewer rights than they do right now, I think that most would agree that ending women’s suffrage would be a backwards step. Now, I’m not going to use this quote to vilify the American education system, but I will say that it’s astounding that this made it through rounds of editing and into the final product. One would think/hope that at least someone would have spoken up.”

Rousselle may have been nice enough not to bash public education for its failure of epic proportions, but I’m not.

The fact that Jackson’s school even asked teenagers how they would have altered the founding of our great nation is ridiculous in and of itself. Some of the greatest minds that ever lived came together to form what is the most revered country in the history of the world, so I think it’s safe to say that anything a high schooler might have to add would be completely worthless.

Something tells me Haley Jackson didn’t get into Yale. At least we know who she’ll be voting for come 2016!
