Reasons for Kleptocracy's Compulsory Schooling
That is to say:Reverse Engineering School's True Purpose
(Not Swallowing the Reasons Offered by the Managers)
(Not Swallowing the Reasons Offered by the Managers)
Deschooling Society detailed a host of reasons modern secular societies have compulsory schooling (Ivan Illich, 1970). In 1970 I found his reasons to be as encyclopedic as I could imagine. Since then I've been adding my own reasons as well as expanding on his. Illich's book was published, became a best seller. My offer to actualize what he was proposing received next to no support, only one of my articles was published, what I published online from the 1990s onward got sabotaged and censored following my arrest in 2006. First Knatz.com, then its deschooling spin-off, InfoAll.org, listed my "reasons" for schooling (a list very unflattering to kleptocratic civilization). I mean to transfer all that to this InfoAll blog. Additionally I began a data base for such reasons in the mid-1990s. That too must be sorted through. And of course I think of new reasons regularly.
I believe I should first put up all that I can: then edit them down, extract the essence: maybe edit them way-down.
Reasons: Halter, my next post, in another few seconds, will not though begin with Knatz.com's published reasons, but rather with an analogy I hadn't used previously:
But never forget, Ivan Illich and I, Paul Knatz, offered the world a way out: cybernetic community information networks, a public- (not government-) internet. You, the public, didn't pay for the infrastructure (you let your saints starve, as usual, you didn't get it).
Illich and I get sandbagged. He's dead, I soon will be. But we're wrapped in Jesus' arms. (Guess where we'll see "you"!)
First, all institutions have one purpose in common:
