Indoctrination verses Education

Education for many,view the school or institution, which allows members through tax payers, the abilityto attend several years of indoctrination: the purpose of school is to not empower the lower class or middle class, but to promote ideals to over-all conformity. Once an individual has been molded, groomed by what society deems acceptable, the next step is to teach nothing more than a foundation of ideals and theory.At this point, the individual assumes his or herself capable of performing a task that is required by a proprietor, partnership, or corporation. The indoctrinated indivdiual seeks to enter a cult like environment, where through many years of conformity, allows the business to indoctrinate the employee further to play an amoral game.

Education and indoctrination are different. Indoctrination is training a person to be controlled. Education is the training of one's self to judge for his or her self by questioning multiple sources for validity and accurancy--- though he or she realises that all sides of perspective is bias.

Education allows an individual to continue researching multiple sources of information, including an involvement within several professions. Education allows an individual to realise that the world operates in a scheme of deception, lies, and that all war is a farce. Many individuals who defend the integrity of universities, will argue that they've gain knowledge, but I've realised that what we learned at the University setting gives us nothing more than a piece of paper that isn't worth anything. After several years, the degree becomes a memory of debt: paid through grants, scholarships, or parental contributions. There's several levels of indoctrination. The Associate, Bachelors, Masters, and Doctor's degree. All degrees are designed to prove to a business that the individual isexploitable and can be indoctrinated for a series of years. A career isn't what you think it is. It is nothing more than a job with several years. Job security doesn't exist.

Our degrees are meaningless. A piece of paper doesn't prove skill. A degree proves debt. School is a business. It's a factory. The product is a class of students with false hope.

The purpose for indoctrinated individuals is to make the master look brilliant. The purpose is to create slaves.

The real education is seeing the farce. Everyone thinks of themselves clever and the thought of someone else being smarter angers them.

Sounds like a blog post to me.

Edit: What did you major in?

You're right, education gives people the tools to question sources and think critically, and that's what college does. College, for the most part, encourages people to question their preconceived notions and to approach things scientifically with as little bias as possible. College encourages people to experience different viewpoints and see the world in more than a unilateral sense. College also greatly helps job prospects. College students are underemployed right now, but they're still earning better wages than the people without a degree. Go to one of those job sites and do some searches, they're all asking for people with training or a degree. Now the merits behind acquiring a career can be discussed seperately, but personally I find it really hard to affect change if you don't have a sustainable income. What alternative are you proposing, panhandling? At least getting a job, even if you do see it as submitting to a machine, grants you some means to be self-sufficient and affect the environment around you.

DO about this?

By the looks of your writing, you could use a little of the latter.

OK?
