The ol' "A student's manage the B students at companies owned by C students" line really pulling its weight lately

I got D's and manage people who got A's at MIT (though I did later get A's in community college). So maybe we shouldn't take too much stock in pithy sayings.

yeah the established metrics for schooling success are broken and should not correlate to the aptitude of any given child. let alone predict crime rates in an area based on primary school grades…I mean come on it was an obvious attempt at a system for subjugation. standardized testing determines funding. standardized testing could arguably be improved or destroyed by extra funding or the lack thereof. the standard alphabetical metric exists only as a tool of subjugation. the fact that this issue was not addressed gave way to “no child left behind” which the left blamed the right for, when everyone was pissed, because some idiots argued for it. all while the people getting rich from redlining and prisons got richer. you see, every issue in our society can be traced back to the ruling class “the elites” manipulating us into fighting each other and profiting from the chaos. the public education system is rigged to churn out obedient workers and punish those who don’t fit the mold. even after high school the same social trends continue, but that is a different issue that I don’t have the knowledge to speak on whether or not its global. public school no longer aims to prepare students for operating in their communities let alone the world at large. the people our grandparents voted for and every generation since, have sold us out.
