Well...its spelled "guarantee." Next question, who controls the US government? Answer: large businesses. So in effect "markets" do control the education. It is clear that allowing markets to control will not always result is what is best for human beings. The quicker you get off the ideology that you've been trained to believe in the business controlled education system, the better off we'll all be.

Government controlling education is the problem. Why isn't it on the market? I guarentee there would be a lot smarter individuals if educations was market controlled.

Starting around the 3:40 mark he spoke with such passion and truth it actually brought tears to my eyes. George Carlin was the best comedian to ever walk the planet. He is surely missed.

"It's called the American dream... because you have to be asleep to believe it."
What a line.

Actually, we learn most of what we need to know from school. However, its laced with such pro-capitalist, pro-American way propaganda that people that it muddies our thought. If we could get by our emotional attachments and actually think critically we might be able to improve. Sadly, what we have id hypocrisy and scapegoating - blaming others and criticizing them for problems we create. If you buy into America uncritically, then don't whine when it doesn't work well. Take responsibility.
