You can do a simple test at home or at the work place. Put a sign on the wall, door, or trashcan with some simple instructions or notices and see how many people failed to follow it or see it. People still throw regular trash into the recycle bin, push the door open instead of pull, or walk into the room when they are not supposed to. One of my class meets in the computer lab, and there is always a schedule on the door that tells you when the room is occupied. Accompanying the schedule, there is also a sign that says "Class in session" on the door. Yet, every single day, people either walk right in and get kicked out, or keep peeking into the tiny window on the door to see if it is OK to go inside, when the sign "Class in session" is 1/2 inch away from their face. So, why do people do that?? Probably stupidity. How else would you explain it?
So, yes, majority of humans do not know how to read. Test it at any public area!
