I noticed that we are like cattle to the goverment.They form us like that from childhood. In school they herd us from class to class making us believe that not going to class is wrong. Then later on in life we are all ready programed to move from job to job thinking that is the right way to make our money. but there are those select few that dont listen they skip class and dont have legal jobs.So the goverment takes them to I.s.s. or jail. This is why I choose to avoid jail as long as possible and rebel against any and all authority figures that I can. I just thought you should know what the goverment is programing into your mind.

....well duh we are being brain washed since we are born, thats why boys room are blue and girls room are pink...its not really based on the government but culture. example the way we greet each other, here we shake hands in china they bow

ishmael says some interesting things on this point. read My Ishmael. it's good.

we go to school not to learn but to fill in time basically. if there is anything that we NEED to learn, i mean stuff that is actually useful, we wouldn't need to be consciously taught it, because we would pick it up in our day to day. like tribal people knew what they needed to know and anything that wasn't neccessary, they didn't learn, because it was just a waste of time.

Our world is far different from that of a tribal one. School is means to the end that you will be able to sustain you welfare on your own and hopefully contribute something of value to the greater whole, without seeking your welfare from others, such as the state. Though this is not always possible for genes and environment can often, and commonly do, retard potential.

what does school teach that apprenticship cannot?

nothing school fucking sucks ass, its like the biggest waste of time, i mostly just stare at the wall for 8 hours

I have been taking Criminolgy courses at school and it really does seem like they are trying to brainwash me into thinking the way we do things is indeed the corect way. However they have not been getting to me because i find it all boring and forget everything after i take an exam.

I agree. I forget everithing too after i take an exam I am not interested of. It is the only way...

Well conventional schooling tends to cover a variety of subject area, whereas apprenticeship instructs in only a limited vein of knowledge. It sounds as if you don't think apprenticeship is schooling.

Yes, but nowadays they teach in schools too many useless things that you never apply in your everyday life, and that seems to me like a very stupid thing to do. They are wasting precious time, in which they could teach something you'll use in your job later.

I think that i should kill the goverment start with the president and then the vice pres. and so on if anyone wishes to help me let me know. fairwell.

Yeah like that stupid basic math... ya know, the stuff that teaches cashiers how to actually USE there brain to figure change instead of looking totally LOST when the computer blanks out on them...(fast food cashiers are the most common ones that have this problem)

i think of apprenticeship more like life skills based.

as in, you are an apprentice to your parents and learn life skills that way.

as said, although, you might learn a little from school, you do forget a lot of it after the exams, and i really do think that if anything was worth learning, like essential for your survival without welfare etc, you won't be taught such at school

*sighs* Hmm, i agree that regular school sucks a wad and some. But it's bad enough that the graduates of today(in america) can BARELY read, write(fill out an application), or do simple math.. I think they need to make school tougher, more of a challange so it is not so boring..
