All right. Here's one example. The CDC. It's tasked with keeping the spread of infectious diseases in check. And it does a damn good job of it!
Case in point: SARS. The epidemic hit more than 7000 people in China and Hong Kong. As soon as there was some indication that it might hit the USA, they made it so flights to infected nations were grounded, and international travel was locked down tight. Thanks to the CDC, how many Americans got it? 27. And none of them died.
And seriously, where are you getting this information about literacy rates going down since the introduction of public schools?
