Yep. Everyone is _equal_ under communism. So no one strives. And it
shows, from OECD...

"Overall, according to the U.S. Department of Education, American
students' rankings in math have slipped from 24th to 29th compared to
the last test in 2010. In science, they've gone from 19th to 22nd, and
from 10th to 20th in reading."

Curiously a friend of mine has just started teaching at a local
University. She was in a panic to get her grades in on time. Well today
her lament was that she was now, less than 24 hours later getting
complaints from students over their grades.

I told her that if it ever occured that she wasn't receiving complaints
it would mean she was doing something wrong.
