49. It dumbs down education.
Here in Texas, schools get worse and worse each year as the passing percentages rise. It forces schools to spend all of their time (and I truly do mean all of their time) trying to meet their production quotas. As a result, children get no stimulation, unless he or she really likes remediation.

You'll get a generation of WalMart line workers out of this one.

At the time, I thought Kennedy was nutso for supporting this one.
