A Real Education... a way back for the sheeple and the economy.

It is certainly true that an education system is the engine that drives an economy in innovation and technology. But for more than 100 years... the majority of the "educated" have been indoctrinated into being good worker bees. This is the Prussian model. It's been in the US for over 100 years and promoted by the government as well as the globalists behind the scenes.

Another method, that dates far back is called the "Trivium". It uses the natural method of learning and building upon knowledge to logic and wisdom. Rather than attempt to explain it more I'll just refer you to notes that do a much better job. Trivium and Quadrivium Cliff Notes by Gene Odening



For those who have looked for the causes behind stress, low self-esteem and the myriad of other social diseases that seem to be exploding within the society... being able to understand reason and logic and giving people a path to the dignity of self-determination could very well be the solution to a vast majority of these.

"To be under the rule of task masters; to be dictated as to what to think by others or via the media; to labor under the illusion of being a well informed individual; to become a stillborn adult, a life long adolescent - these are the results of our century old institution. The ideal of self-determination is trampled mercilessly and in its place grows self-alienation. In being aggressively indoctrinated not to think . . . that is, in being programmed against our very nature, is it any wonder most of us live in a constant state of low-level fear and are anxiously disoriented in an ocean of chaos without the ability to
judge as to what are appropriate and beneficial goods and values? Man cannot long live or maintain health without his primary means of survival; the exercise of his rational thought."

As I look into this Trivium more, I see the problem more and more clearly with our society. The fact that people have been taught to reverse the process. To proclaim wisdom with no logic, fact or reason behind it. Thus, they don't know why they do the things they do or believe the things they believe. They just follow the people they "like". They are encouraged to have an opinion on things they have no clue of what it comprises of or how it operates. They can't see how a real opinion is formed and therefore don't even know how to ask the questions to determine if this opinion is based on reality or just an illusion. This is why we have to teach ourselves and our fellow man that this is indeed important.
