Frank Zappa talking abour public schools. The schooling system is designed to turn you into usable instrument. They don't teach you anything that really matters, they only make you memorize pointless things that 99% you will never need in your life.
If you wan to get indoctrinated, dumbed down and close minded, go to school, if you want to actually learn something that matters start reading books.

Great quote from a brilliant interview.Full video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-n_pXa28OsY
I believe a perfect example of what Frank is saying to be true is the game show "Are You Smarter Than A 5th Grader". Only 2 people won a million dollars. Most adults don't have to know what they teach in the 5th grade, we forget most of it, because we don't use it in life to make a living and support our families.
