We've all been raised on television to believe that one day we'd all be millionaires, and movie gods, and rock stars, but we won't.

I watch tv and the more I watch the more depressed I get. We train our children to believe that life should be beautiful people doing beautiful things and at the end of every transgression, so long as you apologize, even the biggest turd can come out smelling like a rose. They are brainwashed into believing that the good guys are always stalwart and true while the bad guys, easily identified by their black hats and/or physical deformities, are always defeated with little to no cost to the white hats. We leave no room for thought or logical processes until the later years, and even then what little formal instruction in mandatory schooling can be used to convey these monumental ideas is limited, underfunded, and a mockery to merely appease the few who have the foresight to question. And that's the pinch isn't it? If we teach our children from day one that our rights are undeniable and irrefutable but we never teach them to question the very government who decided what rights are “god-given” and what rights can be stripped from a citizen merely for holding an unpopular belief, then how will our children teach theirs to question? Truth is, the power to question and the power to act on the conclusions of such inquiry is stressed in schooling, to one group of people; the upper one percent, that's how they stay the upper one percent.
