It didn't do George Bush much good and he got to be President. You can do the same as long as you get the supreme court to help you.

1. No You Don't Need School -- If You've Been Born With Voracious Curiousity |
|
Really, the only way around school is if you are gifted with a voracious appetite for knowledge. Otherwise, you're fucked.

3. Unfortunately, I think that American kids are being medicated for that |
|
School is set up to weed out those who can't fit into the system. The incredibly gifted often end up frustrated with un-recognized or mis-diagnosed appetites. Teachers don't have the tools or the training to teach every child. Our school system is broken.

2. Who said this quote "Education is wasted on the young?" |
|
It's not meant as a dispearagement I was just wondering. The context is that there's alot of people that go to school who are young who dont appreciate it. And alot of older people who cant because life gets in the way. I was just wondering who said the dang thing. It was on Quantum Leap a few nights ago and i can't remember it.
