>1994-2003
A bit outdated, don't you think?

something tells me that functional literacy in this mean't technical writing as well, otherwise shoop

The functionally illiteracy has probably skyrocketed further, so we're going to have a total separation between cattle and shitty elites soon.

Italy is going full mad max soon, and that's when italians wake the fuck up and begin to excel at everything.

Fun times ahead!

>47%
Just fucking read a book already.

>The functionally illiteracy has probably skyrocketed further

How come?

>Question: is someone who doesn't read speak English considered literate these days? If not and they speak native understand and can earn a living through it, how then are they dumb?
Answer: No, this is literacy in the national language of the country.

What percentage of the USA's is African American?

all of them

That is from 1994 to 2003 only, later we had the 3rd berlusconi era, a few earthquakes, rise of populism, mass use of internet by uneducated normies, more mafia allegation, EU, 2008 crisis, mass migration and of course having abandoned the post-war education system which was top notch (to the point even Japan considered switching to it).

All these happenings reinforced a certain kind of attitude towards success, scholarization and literacy. Let's say italians turned into chavs, minus the teen pregnancy.

A certain kind of elitist educated minorities (mainly stemming from a couple universities in Milan) are trying to save the country for its ultimate demise, but Lega+M5s will be a huge nail in the coffin. Hopefully from the civil war that will ensue we'll have a new beginning, pity i was born between two economic booms.

If you want to be paranoid, all of this decay is because of picrelated's plan.

No a more appropriate example of functional illiteracy is when someone can't understand the news by reading a newspaper or even by listening to the tv host.

In a democracy this is a big problem, because these dumbasses' votes are valid.

I'm pretty sure that "illiterate" means someone who can't read, not someone who's just uneducated.

>all these old Canadian stats before the flood

It's FUNCTIONAL illitterate. FUNCTIONAL.

Functional because they can function in society just enough to produce wealth and consume goods, they can read, they can talk, but they don't understand.

Look it up.

>How is this possible
I think Answered it. Also, a lot of our older Hispanics even ones legally here for decades have piss poor spoken and written English skills and who knows how good their written Spanish is.

Damn, I knew Italy was a shithole but not worse than Mexico.

Grandmas and immigrants are not considered in this, both have a reason not to be proficient in the local language.
Functional illiteracy means you went to school, but the education system FAILED at formatting you so that you can be part of the country.

TERONI are the problem (e.g. M5s politicians not being able to write correct italian in a formal document).

I bet the 47% are all the Southern Italians

Made me laugh

itt: People who don't understand what functional illiteracy is

It's literally brain drain since most people here go over seas to big companies than work here.

Fuck off el diablo.

What does it mean functionally illiterate?
I'm pretty sure people unable to read and write are less than 1% and all very old.

*Scots

I thought ours was due to p*kis but of it was it wouldn't be almost three times higher than Sweden.

I don't get it.
