Hey Alvin! How's that public education thing working out for you? Not tooo gooood!!!
Reading, writing and arithmetic is no longer taught well and 80 % of freshmen college students need some form of remedial education. "Industrial discipline" sounds a lot like"Industrial Armies", doesn't it? Do you know who called for that? Karl Marx, the father of communism.
Alvin and Heidi are statists too! Why don't you collectivists leave people alone to be free instead of hamsters for your treadmills?

Newt Gingrich wrote the forward to one of Alvin and Heidi Toffler's books, and recommends it. Newt Gingrich is a statist.

Fantastic video...we are preparing our children for the past, not the future.
In the description it is claimed this is evidence we live in a police state.
I submit that because people are creatures of habit, we cling to old ideas...institutionalized obsolesence. Mike Judge's movie "Idiocracy" is recommended.
Our republic may be failing, but the police state is not here...yet...

el problema en latinoamerica es que muchos niños no pueden estudiar, porque no tienen recursos, no hay escuelas, o simplemente deben trabajar desde temprana edad, entonces no habria educación y todo lo que han dicho no aplica, en africa y suramerica, y la viejita de rojo tiene actitud de canchera.,,,
Facinating analysis, what a great couple.

There are many educational systems in the world that pretend to be alternatives, but none of them proved to have more efficiency in the creation of competitive jobs or researching minds. The main problem of our system is the incapability of teaching to think; pupils (and unfortunately students also) only know how to memorise and come not able to discover or invent. I guess this might be resolved with national tests totally different from a year to another with no model exercises.
