You have nothing to apologize for. Your government should be apologizing to you for the state of education in the U.S.

i found that everyone of my employees that ive had the pleasure of coaching and working with over the years that have college degrees have traded most of their common sense in for book knowledge . I guess the job market is just that bad where the degree they went to school for that those jobs are scarce.

I would love to go back to school if we had classes where we learn things of this nature . but I would hate to go to school and then become so arrogant and self absorbed where I felt that any of this knowledge made me better than someone that does not know about these things . .. I guess when some people go to school and memorize more material they somehow become less humble .. I would be thankful and wish to share my knowledge not ridicule or belittle those who are not at the same level..

First, find a community college near you and look at the list of classes.
Second, ask the staff there to help you look into getting the financial aid from the federal government to cover the cost of tuition and books.
Third, education doesn't make you arrogant and self-absorbed. It's your decision what type of person you want to be.

And all of that has WHAT to do with the state of education in the USA ??

Burying your head in the sand or turning the discussion into an ad hominem attack on the person/s pointing out the shortcomings in the system while the rest of the world leaves your country in its' dust, education wise, is part of the problem, not part of a solution.
