We are all so afraid of poverty and not fitting in with the crowd we feel we need to fit in with that some people will do most anything to prevent these things from happening. For most of us keeping up appearances is all we think we have. Nobody ever stops to look around to see why we feel these ways. Nobody is encouraged, nor is anyone shown the way to their particular destination. For some reason our real destination always winds up in the unreal of our minds; our dreams. This we are encouraged to do.
For years we have heard how it is good to dream, but the real world has no place for dreamers. This is one reason why we are not inclined to drive toward the unreal. The dichotomy is that the social world is just like a dream, a bad dream filled with the walking musculature's of the never has beens. This is not their fault as they too were encouraged to do this and that and discouraged to dream. The exceptions in all cases however were people like, well, we all know who they are/were don't we? They were the one's in the books some people still read.
Imagine an educational system that created jobs for teachers, allowed for creative thinking that had some benefit to the community, and provided a well rounded and complete education that included music, art, metal shop, wood shop, as well as specialty classes for the academically inclined. Imagine school being a place of learning and creativity. Imagine.
How can this be? First, all upper level jobs would be eliminated. For far too long we have allowed politics to invade the future of the children. A new way with less at the top and more at the bottom will loosen up funding to not only have more teachers, but a variety of classes as well with more money going where it needs to go, into the pockets of the teachers and in each individual classroom. Shall I continue? LLc 98.2
