Americans exist on a vocabulary of clipped sitcom one-liners and catchphrases from adverts.
You don't even teach joined-up handwriting because the average American brain is so clogged with fat and sugar it can't comprehend language unless it is laid out so a toddler can read it.
You can actually see them have a stroke when trying to read Shakespeare or anything written before 1900.
joined up handwritting is just harder to read though. If you accept the premise that you write things for people to read them cursive is then counter productive

I knew the American education system was bad, but I’m still surprised to see the fruits of its labor.
