School really is the problem. In its current form, it can not be sustained without radical reform.

If you look at the suicide rate of children under 14 month-to-month, they only stop killing themselves when they're not forced to go to school (Summer and Winter vacation).

Probably the only place in your entire life that you'll be subject to physical and emotional violence.

Calls to "abolish the department of education" are going to get louder and louder.

Just to clarify, are you implying that life is better in countries where the population has little or no education?

Hopefully i’m misunderstanding because that would be quite something.

Schooling and Education are not quite the same thing.
