because the Dominican government needs to allocate an amount equivalent to 40% of GDP for education, that's why.
You could give these come platanos 100% of the US's GDP and still would have a half iliterate country. You can throw all the money you want but the stupidity of Dominincans is not caused from lack of decent schools, but from a lack of desire or will to put forth an effort at learning something new. Dominicans are lazy, especially when it comes to learning something they feel they dont need.
This country is one big a$$ cheatsheet! El pais del chivo constante. Country will never progress when 75% of its students cheat at every single exam presented to them. I was a creative cheater in my high school days but these people are just descarados....and so are the teachers who permit it.
In the words of an extremely smart man, You cant fix stupid.
