SHIP SINKING MYSTERY STILL NOT SOLVED IN KOREA
30% of South Korean citizens still don't believe their right-wing government's story about the sinking of the Cheonan naval ship.
Some critics have made the case the South Korean vessel ran aground and was not sunk by the North Koreans.
See, that's what happens with Public Education. The people learn how to read and ask questions. Also any technological advancement or even Tech-not-sliding-backward depends on the Internet now. And the people being educated.
Our choice, education or a return to the caves. But the Anti-Education folks still try not to quote Adolf Hitler, as filtered by his physician and confidant in the book "Hitler Speaks!"
Where he said "Universal Public Education is the most virulent toxin Liberalism can impose on itself" (he defined himself in many ways to many different audiences) "The only necessity is that they have sufficient education to be willing and efficient conscripts for our armies and efficient coolies in our industries". And somewhere in the middle he points out that Education would give the coolies and conscripts lofty ideas that the state-corporations would have to suppress, like actual Equality.
