Get schooled

Good song to listen to about school - Signal the Riflemen by Say Anything

Questions
1.) Why do we put so much faith in teachers to show us how to do things 'properly', even though they are truly only students of other students?

2.) Why don't we learn about what's relevant to our lives personally? Why do we sit through hours of muck instead of getting life teachings?

3.) Why don't teachers secede that they are learning at the same time we all are? Why not admit that they haven't actually got it all figured out?

Ideas
1.) School is really just a place to herd youth together in a single place in order to subject to the vicious opinions of the board of education.

2.) School is also a place where we can unite with one another under a common banner, where we can find a common enemy and good friends.

3.) A place where if you lock in and focus on success in the system, you can do wel and later on in life get a good paying job and stable living.
