The first view is that schooling is for the purpose of education.
The second view is that schooling is for the purpose of 1) freeing parents to work; 2) ranking people for job assignment.

I believe schooling should be for the purpose of education and education should be to teach people how to think and learn. This is why I did not do well as a teacher, because I also believe in actuality schooling is not for education, and when it is, education is intended to be indoctrination.

They call me a cynic.
