Today, I read a good article. It was in Time Magazine, and it talked about how over the next ten years a reoccurring thought will pass through the minds of America, and start becoming a reality. More and more people will start to realize that all the schooling we go through is ultimately useless.
Notice that we spend the first fifth of our life in school. Learning new things for the first ten to fifteen years, then it's a repetitive motion. Training for the factory, the system of America. We pour millions of dollars into our educations, with the thought and dream that they alone will get us places. So why is it that people with these higher level educations are fighting for average jobs? Who decided for me that I must pay thousands of dollars a year to get a piece of paper proving my skills? When did my word, and my work, stop being proof? These are the questions we need to be asking.
Yet, we let it all pass. No one dares to say anything different. "What good is one voice? It's quickly muffled." Not if that one voice can start a riot.
