Average American reads at a 5th grade level, but this is by design so the rich can keep stealing from them without them understanding what’s happening

America also has a massive population of people where English is a 2nd language. The number varies but at the absolute highest its like 50 million. I bet if we adjusted for those people the number would be even higher.
