5. There's a reason our education system

is the way it is now. It's been years in the making but now we're actually graduating sheeple. Mostly because that's what they've been taught by their loving parents. I see this everyday and have relationships with family who's kids can't fathom that mom and dad might be wrong about anything. And those very kids passionately back those ideals up to the death.

So kids these days are getting triple whammied by a broken education system, propped up by their clueless parents, then graduated out into the world with no prospects.

I feel so bad for children these days because of the non-future they have and fear for my little girls future everyday. My wife and I both work our asses off just to make ends meet and now we have to spend what very little free time we have making sure our child is being educated properly.

Our education system has a massive effect on our society and it's been heartbreaking to watch it crumble more and more every year.

The worst part is the situation we're in now with our education system had been planned for a long time, and well executed.

Sheeple are easier to manipulate than educated critical thinking adults.
