Thought Experiment for Educational System

Economic Bullies Love This

It's unnatural for kids to get no reward and no punishment. Rewards 10 or 20 years later are not motivating. This system creates bored, submissive, and incompetent employees.
Many middle-class kids have been so fawned over by their parents that they expect it from their teachers as well regardless of how they do. The best motivation is strict discipline, as in the military.

Unk,
Millions (my guess) of unsanitary, unnecessary, and damaging toilet overflows occur each year because people don't know how a toilet works or how to stop an overflow (it's really quite simple). Who is responsible for educating* people about this? I say it's the "educational system". :up:

*I try to educate my tenants regarding this, and it has helped greatly, although some overflows still happen.
If people want to pursue a trade like plumbing, that would be their choice.
 
Unk,
People go to college to learn how to solve the problems that they themselves have unwittingly created. It's really quite a brilliant scam. ;)

You don't have to become a plumber to understand how a toilet works.

Lots of what is called education isn't really teaching, it's just passing on information, in a formal setting.

Is that what you do in the classes you teach?
