There is most certainly something bigger in life! Michael Hi Mark,
Thank you for your comment,
I’m hopeful that a combination of the current economic downturn and the baby boomers reaching retirement age, (my thoughts here), will create a surge of people overthrowing the current mentality.

There is most certainly something bigger in life!

That is a very good point you make. I would go further and suggest that the UK education system was initiated in the first place to provide better educated 'factory fodder' and really has never deviated from that. The whole point of learning 'reading, riting & rithmatic' is to prepare students for a job, years of serving 'the machine' and retirement. The tax collection point is a valid one and another reason why governments would want to keep things as they are. Let's hope they have a real problem in the future as more and more internet cottage industries spring up. I rather like growing vegetables and collecting eggs. Hi Wizzer,

Certainly the "Get out of school and get a job" mentality exists. I know I go to work every day and then come home to my computer and do MY work, hoping to get out of the rat-race. However, I don't see many people doing the same thing. Most of them use the computer as a toy and just rely on their pay check from work. Their must be something bigger in life!

Interestingly I think the whole UK education system has also grown to support the "system" that the authorities created. I teach children to fit in with the system of mass movement of people to and from work at 9 & 5. Teach them to think in that way during their formative years and you retain control. More importantly from a governmental viewpoint you can then keep a closer check of tax collection. Have millions of home based workers and the "system" needs recreating. I'm all for it - although I prefer someone else to do the farming! I like the angle you’ve created with this post.
