The U.S. is the Fourth-Most Educated Country in the World

  

And they say America is falling behind the rest of the world in education.  We can sit through classes just as well as anybody.  Might not be LEARNING, necessarily, but we're damn good at sitting there.

  

--According to a study by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, the U.S. is the FOURTH-MOST educated country in the world.  The list is based on the percentage of adult residents with college degrees.

  

--Canada is the most educated, with 51% college-educated adults.  It's the only country in the world where over half of the residents have degrees.  Israel is second and Japan is third.

  

--The U.S. is fourth with 42% of residents with college degrees.  New Zealand is fifth.
