From the cradle to the grave, federal recommendations, ostensibly designed for our wellbeing, 'guide' us through our lives telling us what to eat, when to sleep, how to work, when to die โ and what to think.
Public schools more closely resemble prisons than centers of learning as students are locked in buildings and given a little 'yard time' between hours of forced indoctrination.
The effects of such a system are becoming more evident by the day. In spite of the fact that the United States spends more on public education than any other country in the world, Americans, on average, fail.
When it comes to basic technological skills like using email, buying and returning items online, using a drop-down menu, naming a file on a computer or sending a text message โ Americans rank dead last.
According to a recent study by the Department of Education, Americans with a high school diploma performed about the same as high school dropouts in other countries.
Aside from the educational failures in the Land of the Free, the nation's health is horrific too. Despite spending more on healthcare than any other country, America leads the world in obesity, heart disease, and cancer, while at the same time, consuming magnitudes more prescription drugs than the rest of the world.
Whether deliberate or a merely a symptom of empire โ Americans are being dumbed down and becoming unhealthy.
A well-informed and healthy society is harder to rule over, which explains why America is descending into tyranny โ we are less informed and sicker than ever.
