I imagine a lot of the lib discourse of this either avoids the education funding model (rich areas get better schools) or views it as either inevitable or good. If you're a "middle class" lib in a rich area, maybe everyone around you hasn't gone to a school with very little funding, everyone around you has gone to uni etc.
Extremely intentional. Maintains class divide, keeps the “middle class” in check by letting them know if they question anything they’ll get kicked down a few rungs on the social ladder.
Since no child left behind was passed in 2004 and the common core standards that came not long after it. I graduated HS in 2007 so I mostly missed all that bullshit and only got a little bit of standardized testing.
It means,,sadly, that the US education system is doing precisely what it was intended to do. Sigh

Still intentional.
