Illiteracy rates would drop?!
Of course they ******* would - it's like abolishing the ******* concept.
Most spellings derive from meaning, not phoenetics. How the [composite word including 'f*ck'] do these wankers plan to cope with phoenetically identical words which are spelt differently to distinguish between their meanings?
Morons.
Utter. Utter. Morons.
Of course it doesn't help that most Americans can't pronounce the words that they do spell right anyway... Eether? [composite word including 'f*ck'] off - it's pronounced "eye ther"

Influential Parents group P.A.E.D.O (Parents Against Educational Dunce Ousting) continued to point to figures suggesting that the majority of Americans now believed that 2+2 = 5 and that therefore Mathematics should be taught on this basis.
P.A.E.D.O spokeswoman Lorenna Bignips said "Mah boy is bein' 'scriminated 'gainst despite the fact he is in the mah... muh... maj.. despite the fact more people are like what he is. If we changed maths as we are suggesting he would be a success instead of an abject little failure that's never gonna net me nothin'".
Experts in accents said that Lorenna Bignips could not possibly be real.
In other news pressure group C.O.C.K ( I got nuthin) today again suggested that if the majority of American's did not know that a country existed that it was the duty of the American Government to bomb that country out of existence to prove the American public right. A spokesperson for the Bush administration admitted that they were amenable to this suggestion but stated that knowing where to send the planes.

The thing I find most disgusting is that they want our KIDS to learn this. What purpose will that possibly serve? Make an employer laugh out loud in the persons face when they fill out a rezoomay.
Its like they want the future generations to become complete ******* morons. And to what end? Too make life easier in Elementary school and Middle school? Yeah, cause God knows those were the hardest years. College was a breeze compared to spelling tests. FFS...........

Belive it or not, schools tried this in the late 60's/early 70's. Of course, when the entire concept was declared obscenely stupid, the poor bastards who'd been taught this had one hell of a time catching up after being taught that way.
