OECD Skills Outlook 2013, Adult Education Policy

The OECD released a 466-page report titled "Skills Outlook 2013," which assesses the literacy, numeracy, and problem-solving skills of adults globally. The hosts argue the report is being used to justify "Common Core" and to prepare the workforce for a future of low-level "information processing" and data entry. They suggest the OECD acts as a New World Order think tank setting global education and tax policies.
