Govern-cement school is designed to make people hate learning.

The "smart" phones are less useful than a Sinclair computer from the 80s.
You could learn to program on it and get it to do all kinds of things.
A smart phone is soooo dumb. It locks you out of all the useful features.

Scientists on TV say, "it is settled science"
Anyone saying that, and claiming to be a scientists should be tarred and feathered.
Because science is always evolving.

Cars in the 50s were things people could work on and change and modify.
Now they make cars that are so integrated, so fragile, you stick a screwdriver into your radio in the wrong place, and the car no longer starts.

Our world has been made to make people want to zone out. And so much regulation against doing anything real.
