John Taylor Gatto - State Controlled Consciousness

John Taylor Gatto, an American retired school teacher of 29 years 8 months and author of several books on education, talks about compulsory schooling and explains why it is bad.

 

Most people believe that compulsory education was invented to educate, that’s a lie, there is a reason why prisons, compulsory education and factory’s made their appearance around the same time. Factory’s came but the people rejected this kind of degrading work at first, working in factory’s was thought of being similar to slave labour and nothing a gentleman (the system started in England) should do. They could not change the adult people to accept the work in factory’s but they could create a system which would condition the next generation to think of this kind of work as normal; compulsory schooling.

 

That’s how it started, Prussia and England were the first places, from their it came to the Soviet union were Marxist principles were added and this system than found it’s way to the US - thanks to the Rockefeller foundation. And fallowing ww2 they have started to re-import it to Europe were the people are now blown with this kind of Neo-Marxist indoctrination which does not really educate.

 

The humans brain in many aspects works like a computer, it takes in information and works with what it got. Feed wrong, illogical, and/or incoherent information to people and you take away their ability to think clearly and in the same way that a computer feed with wrong data does not work properly. Intelligence is only raw power, without the right information put into context in an intelligible way, even the most intelligent people will appear stupid because they can not put their raw-capacity to use!
