I think the main problem with the US educational system is that it is not an educational system at least in the way most people think it is but is more like a re education system to ensure that the people are smart enough to turn the dials but dumb enough to not realize how hard they are getting screwed by the cabal of criminals that has hijacked this country.

That is why actual standards are going down the toilet why there is this obsession over useless standardized tests which would serve better as toilet paper than actual accurate measures of academic achievement and why music and the arts are always the first to go. The establishment has no interest in a well educated and informed population because knowledge is power and they want all the power.

That's why I always educated myself at home instead of at school.

That is good the desire to learn is a sign of a strong mind, I myself read and research quite a bit and used to watch the History Channel back when it remembered it was still the History Channel and every now and then watch the Discovery Channel and the Science Channel when something good comes on.   Far too many people make the mistake that learning should only be confined to the classroom when life itself should be treated as a learning experience.

Everyone always made fun of me because I considered learning the most important part of any experience.

QFT

Learning is most important experience in life and many people fail to see the beauty of learning just for the sake of gaining more knowledge.Most people see it more of a hurdle which they have to pass to make money which is a flawed perception.

I just find that learning is good sure but, the U.S. educational system is definitely screwed up. Even though I lost the interest in learning, I still have to go to school. I find that education is important but, the system just isn't working out.

The US Education system is completely broken. It needs to be fixed ASAP.

I'm not sure if that was sarcasm or not, but it really does need to be fixed.

It's not sarcasm, it's just very direct and simplified.

This pretty well sums it up for me. http://mlpforums.com/topic/35685-the-real-problem-with-our-educational-system/
