Written many, many, many decades ago, yet does describe humanity becoming more ignorant. With the invent of artificial intelligence this prediction does now seem plausible. Classrooms are conducted with a dumbing down effect and children are not being taught properly or intelligently anymore due to a completely toned down stupefied curriculum. At least this seems to be the case in the USA where the dropout rates are horrendous. Also it is sadly creating a Morons 101 special needs for 65% of the students before they either barely graduate or drop out.
