The Marine and the Hippie

In this dialogue, the failure of post modern education, in the US specifically, but across the world more generally, to promote excellence, or even standards in education. The notion that all deserve education is both a good and bad thing. On the one hand, universal education has led to lifting millions out of superstition and ignorance, and has allowed them to advance in technology, art, music and science. On the other hand, it has created a one-size-fits-all model which is simply inappropriate for a number of people, especially those whose aptitudes lie in other directions, and the insistence that these individuals remain in the same educational system as those who actually want to learn and have the ability to excel in class tends to draw resources from the students who care enough and have the ability to learn. But the issue is not "not education" or "private home school" but taking the priorities of industry and putting them on the back burner to restore a sense of education as a dialogue between teacher and student.
