A real education system should be focused on
helping us to find who we are instead of pushing us to look alike. As a result
we compete so we cannot feel we belong when we are simply longing for being.
“We should do away with the absolutely specious
notion that everybody has to earn a living. It is a fact today that one in ten
thousand of us can make a technological breakthrough capable of supporting all
the rest. The youth of today are absolutely right in recognizing this nonsense
of earning a living. We keep inventing jobs because of this false idea that
everybody has to be employed at some kind of drudgery because, according to
Malthusian Darwinian theory he must justify his right to exist. So we have
inspectors of inspectors and people making instruments for inspectors to
inspect inspectors. The true business of people should be to go back to school
and think about whatever it was they were thinking about before somebody came
along and told them they had to earn a living.”
(Richard Buckminster Fuller)
