Product of American Education

Education includes more than formal, kindergarten to grade 12 and post-secondary education. Education is little-p political, seeking to impose a particular form of mental discipline and assert a particular agenda of power relationships. Ideally, at least in my book, the result of systems of education is the type of enlightened and emancipated society in which we all can live, thrive, and be fulfilled and happy. Then again, there are people with other agendas, especially when it comes to science. It's the guy's sincerity that makes this snort-out-your-nose funny.
