Public schools tend to make their students passive. I also note that parents, etc. are passive. The K-12 system is such a successful leviathan, it just squeezes the life out of everybody.

10 years ago I wrote an article called “A speech to teenagers about their education.” Same ideas roughly. I believe this is my most successful article in terms of views. I’ve always loved it because it’s short and somewhat rowdy.

I couldn’t find it anywhere except a rogue Trump site where the Admin claimed he was the writer. I will soon post this somewhere else but for now here’s the only link I have:

Feel free to post either one.
