Unfortunately, it is apparent, given the results of this study, that we are very far from this ideal state of affairs. We now turn to the fundamental concepts and principles tested in standardized critical thinking tests.
Government does not want society to become critical thinkers.

I wonder if there will ever come a time when government and society in general will be truly open and transparent and honest because of the progress of critical thinking?
