The Untold Truth of Education

History of Education Timeline - Education Reform

Perhaps one of the most controversial topics in conversations, life’s priorities, values, emotions or social status. For as long as one can remember, an individual’s success has been measured through different “Levels of Education”. Somehow, someone decided who would be sophisticated enough based on the level of education held – a bachelor’s degree, Master’s degree, Ph.D., and certificates followed by impressive acronyms after your name. These accomplished credentials have been the measure of success for a promising future. Those with minimal academic experience from university, college, or technical school are commonly perceived as the inferior bunch in the crowd. A divided America and being at odds with one another has been a generational project since the powers of Europe first initiated its cause between the North & South in 1812. Why is this so normal and credited as a means of self sufficiency? Perhaps this complex model could be a trojan horse in disguise for human engineering; ominous means for a necessary ending.

One of the first foundations of education was established by John D. Rockefeller. It allowed him to use the power of money to influence the direction of education as well as to promote internationalism & collectivism – the enemy of freedom. Classrooms would be used to install attitudes encouraging students to become passive and submissive to their “leaders”. The objective was to create a factory of controlled citizens who were educated enough for productive work under supervision, but not enough to question authoritative influence or seek to rise above their class. For true education would be restricted only for the sons and daughters of the associates of the “Round Table”. As for everyone else, the collectivists assumed the position to assemble skilled workers with no particular aspirations other than to enjoy life. Not everyone wants to be a specialist at something. Many aspire to enjoy the opportunities of life. What does true education for the sons & daughters of the elite look like? Do they only care about enjoying life? Or are there more roads leading to riches that the dominant Fabianist cult doesn’t want us to know of?

Perspectives on Schooling

Schools can guide fresh intellects to run adrift by teaching the students to memorize facts, rather than teaching them a proper application and how to use their minds with those facts. How many algorithms must be remembered to answer a simple question? Are the only credible sources of information regarding basic economics in the school library? This new paradigm is a nasty parasite that slithers its way into minds creating mass amounts of psychological barriers.

More often than not, the one who did not attend or finish University will feel insecure around those who hold law, medical, finance or economics degrees. People work for their desires, comfort, security, the short joy that money can buy. On the other hand, others work begrudgingly out of fear of poverty and famine. Generations of kids are encouraged to finish layers of schooling so they never have to risk encountering such hardships. Maybe this tangible gift of “the opportunity to learn”, that was not provided genuinely, asks for a price in return; like something intangible … our freedom or our sound mind. This not only shapes an animus community but it divides the bunch from engaging in important indirect learning opportunities from realistic scenarios. Seclusion mutates into psychological defeat and causes irreparable damage. Nobody wants to be left out of conversations or feel their voice is the irrelevant one because of a lack of academic credibility.

A hierarchical economy, determined by those with credits vs. those with no credits only put the nations at crossroads with their higher consciousness and lower consciousness. It diminishes confidence and leaves those feeling psychologically inferior to others experience’s, intelligence, ego’s, GPA & IQ scores. Ultimately neutralizing the flow of the free mind and creative thought processes we were exclusively installed with.

Academic institutions have produced numerous specialists who have assisted tremendously with the enhancements in healthcare, infrastructure, engineering, counselling, and communication which has benefited everyone, but at what cost? What is the opportunity cost of mass evolution?

A University student can be granted large sums of money (+$100,000) and struggle to climb out of debt

The Real Reason Your Small Business Loan Was Denied
The average young adult can’t get a $30,000 business loan

In 2021, there was an outstanding amount of approximately $1.7 trillion in student debt from over 45 million borrowers. Tuition can range from $20,000 – $80,000 plus yearly. The United States national debt is currently at an all time high of roughly $28 trillion and counting. There has to be some kind of wake-up call, alerting the world that a scheme of mass corruption, backed by supply and demand keeps a flow of recurring profits from high interest rates. This isn’t new – it’s just getting out of hand. In hindsight it’s obvious, but maybe we are just too distracted by the pandemonium to listen.

As inflation will continue to roar, the interest rate lever will have to rise with it to combat this growing concern. Not only will it be harder for everyone to borrow money but interest payments on loans will increase unforgivingly, making the loans worth more than they were from when they were initially provided. Foreseeably heavier taxes will be placed on those already at the top of the tax bracket list. When trillions of dollars are lent out at the guarantee that many will struggle to pay it back, that paves a long way for billions in interest payments to flow right back to where the loans were issued from. Nice! What an amazing passive income model. If Joe Biden were to “forgive” student debt, like he lied about the moment he breathed on the matter, not only would that slash about 5-6% of the Fed balance sheet, but he would also take the risk of getting thrown out of office as no one in Congress would dare to meddle with the national debt. Why would you ruin this wonderful source of income that the “great leaders in history” & the current ones of this nation worked so hard on building?

Student debt forgiveness isn’t in Biden’s annual budget—here’s why experts say that’s ‘not surprising’

On the campaign trail, President Joe Biden issued his support for $10,000 of undergraduate or graduate student debt relief for every year of national or community service, up to five years and $50,000. Since then, House and Senate Democrats repeatedly urged Biden to “broadly” forgive up to $50,000 of federal debt through executive order during his first 100 days in office.

Biden’s first 100 days are now behind him and he has repeatedly pushed back against leaders of his own party, stating that he will only support up to $10,000 of debt forgiveness and that he would prefer Congress craft the legislation. 

On Friday, The Washington Post reported that several “ambitious Biden campaign pledges” will likely be left out of the annual White House budget — including student debt forgiveness. The Biden administration is reportedly reviewing federal student loan relief programs separately.

But higher education expert Mark Kantrowitz says the news is “not surprising.” He says those interested in the future of student debt forgiveness should instead pay close attention to the memo Biden has requested about the use of executive authority to cancel student loans. 

“President Biden is still waiting for the U.S. Department of Justice and the U.S. Department of Education to report on their review of his legal authority to forgive student loan debt through executive order,” explains Kantrowitz. “Only after he receives that report, which I expect will find that he does not have the legal authority, will the ball be in Congress’ court.”

Student debt forgiveness has been notably missing from Biden’s proposed stimulus packages and his infrastructure package. And Forbes contributor Zack Friedman argues that the number one reason Biden is unlikely to cancel student loans is simple: if he wanted to, he would have done it already.

Students develop different life skills from all the extraordinary, real world experiences that money can not buy. Adversity is the primary requisite for maturity and self-improvement. There are a multitude of tests & challenges that promote the psyche to more intelligent degrees of creative thinking applicable for future scenarios. The majority want to get out of the “rat race” but the fear & greed driving the endless cycle of having to earn more just to eventually spend more, puts them right back in the race.

Education can open doors to mixed networking, knowledge, hands on experience, critical thinking, leverage, relationships, memories etc. A pool of extensive versatility offering rare opportunity. But that doesn’t necessarily mean that it’s the only course of securing a wealthy future.

The insatiable temptation for materialistic possession is a driving psychological force triggering the necessary fear to never diverge from your “economic purpose” or your “role in society as a citizen”. The forces of capitalization, survival, envy, confusion are some of the controlling synergies surrounding the education industry. These are the strings that have been continuously pulled on by the puppeteers through years of behavioural experimentation and observation. By keeping the public in the dark, the players who don’t understand the objectives of these innovative algorithms are possibly preparing themselves for further vulnerability. Instant gratification is a psychologically losing game when there is no counter measure to regulate those inclinations.

The habitual routine of impulse decision making feeds a troubling chemical imbalance eroding away at self discipline. Once again the puppeteer is presented with an opportunity to play on the undisciplined behaviour of euphoric buying/spending, materialistic ascendence, desires, addiction etc. They are well aware of how essential cash flow is in the economy and how every individual depends on it to sustain basic needs, and more importantly to nurture their preferences. A plausible means named “consumer preference flow” moves in tandem with the capabilities of becoming creditworthy, the backbone of capitalism. The moment people become complacent with their living conditions, and end put an end to the search for Infinite Intelligence, ignorance settles in. The ignorant one who is less informed on ulterior motives is more likely to buy into the dream or purchase a product/service from those who will always be there to supply, if they believe it can one day bring them great fortune.

Money buys happiness, right? That’s the norm. That’s what’s right by decree. The capacity to think freely and act on those thoughts with confidence for the rest of your life earns a peculiar kind of happiness.

  1. True.
    Education is not about degrees and labels one gets from Universities.
    It is more to do with being prepared for facing life questions …to have values.
    Education cannot and should not be used as a means of discrimination..it should in fact be a leveller with equal.opportunities afforded to all

    1. I agree. Not everyone is a left brain thinker & not everyone is a right brain thinker. Some can do the class, others cant. Our strengths should be used to leverage other people’s weaknesses.
