Documentary film being made about how our education system is designed to keep people from learning how to think, and instead to just follow orders. Also the main web site has lots of info. Just passing this along for those with an interest.

Three Presidents on American Education:



--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If a nation expects to be ignorant and free, in a state of civilization, it expects what never was and never will be?
- Thomas Jefferson
from a letter to Colonel Charles Yancey, Jan 6th, 1816
We want one class of persons to have a liberal education and we want another class of persons, a very much larger class of necessity, to forgo the privileges of a liberal education and fit themselves to perform specific difficult manual tasks.
- Woodrow Wilson
from an address to The New York City High School Teachers Association
Jan. 9th, 1909
Rarely is the question asked: Is our children learning?
- George W. Bush
from a campaign speech, Florence, S.C., Jan. 11th, 2000
