That chart is too optimistic. In 1970 U.S. schools ranked high on the world stage; now they do not. And it only looks at tests of regurgitated facts. It does not measure how well schools do teaching people how to logically think and reason their way out of problems.
The federal Department of Education was created about 1979, as a final gift from that earnest and unusually honest progressive fool Jimmy Carter. And the federal government has done two things since it got its sticky fingers in education--it has made propaganda of it, and it has made it exponentially more expensive.
