depending on how things in the world go, I'm not opposed to kids going to high school once some groundwork of sanity has been laid. Once they are capable of critical thought, and understanding that there are alternate paths, and not just some giant system that you must be fed to as a necessary function of continued existence.

The last people to get a really quality public education in the US was in the 80s and maybe early 90s. Schools are nothing more than containment centers for the underclass' brood until they can legally go be debt slaves. Why would I inflict that on a child that could not yet understand what was going on? The schools were always destined to be the trenches of whatever social movement was currently being pushed as they are literal indoctrination factories (by design, mind you), that you are hard-pressed to avoid. Who wants to put a child there? What sort of absent, uncaring, thoughtless individual wants to watch the humanity of their child be stripped away as they are mass-produced into the kind of soulless nigger-cattle that fills the world today?
