Is this real!? If this is real then no wonder the schools don't know what to teach. �If technology has really advanced this far then we really don't need that many workers per capita. �And yet we have people killing people to steal their watch or tennis shoe. �But society would collapse if it wasn't based on sales, trade, barter, and people making themselves useful. �So the schools have to teach co-operation, teamwork, following directions, and creative original thinking. �Those are the skills that have value now. �But don't they come naturally? �(google secular humanity). �Then why do we use schools? �Networking? �Get us out of the house for something to do? �I guess if GMO food is close to wiping out world hunger and vaccines can eradicate diseases then the last thing to look at is each other. �Maybe some people think we'd still fight wars even if we had nothing left to fight over.
