Had I known then what I know now, I would have done as you did: I had the spine for it. I was, however, too naïve: I thought that college would be different.

It wasn’t.

One of my earlier memories is of sitting on the floor of the kindergarten classroom, gazing up at the row of cursive letters on the wall, and silently lamenting that I had been condemned to suffer another twelve years of stupidity until I could Go To College, where all the smart rich free people doing smart rich free people things were.

LOL.

Had I known then what I know now, I would have gone ballistic right then and there. I would have gone full-freakout, full-psychotic, full-retard; I would have melted down like only a five-year-old nuclear firecracker can melt down. No schoolteacher could have tamed me; no schoolroom could have contained me; no schoolhouse could have chained me.

School is literally worse than the Holocaust.

Juvenile concentration camp delenda est.

I turned 18 before I graduated. I dropped my books off at the office and walked out.

The school went nuts, calling my parents, the state truant officers, and even the police, trying to drag me back.

School in America is Daycare, and the price for this Daycare has become too high, and I don’t mean money.

My Education reform is fire, BTW.

And it’s motives are money and power, and you Daddy’s are getting beat by fat Karens.

The obvious conclusion to ‘results of education are the effectively comprable regardless of method used’ is that *the thing itself is effectively inconsequential*. But because this obvious conclusion would have the equally obvious implication that drastic clear-cutting of the academic-industrial complex is a salutary course of action, it is the one conclusion that the sovereign bureaucracy cannot allow to be metaphysically possible in its Official Reality.

This is one of the reasons why I write off people who parrot Churchill’s thought-terminating cliche as not even rating as thinkers.

Indeed, and this was also the case with kids with illiterate parents from immigrant families.

It’s commonly said that the schools are like Factories…but factories are expected to actually produce their products reliably.

There were several key figures and several historical turning points. America admired Prussian drill-masters from the earliest days of the War for Independence.

Some key figures — perhaps libertarians would says that these men constitute a rogue’s gallery:
