Institutional indicators



You can tell a lot about a society by its institutions. Schools, prisons, and universities all are indicators of what is really happening in our culture. However, with that said let us talk about what I see. There seems to be a devolution-taking place. Violence changes minds faster than ideas and the rule of survival of the fittest still reigns. Schools and universities indoctrinate the children to worship money while stripping them of any self-preservation or worth. With the value of human life losing, its importance we get as a society of self centered, immoral greedy people looking for escape thru money and power. This way of life follows the children into adulthood and eventually to prison. Here they can practice what they have learned in school. We are in a cycle, a mouse wheel if you will, that rewards crime while looking down upon common decency and respect. Even criminals worshiped as heroes in the media follows us throughout our daily lives. Sport and rap stars give examples that crime is the cool thing to do and with enough money and power, you can get away with it. This all can stop if more people would home school. By not allowing your children to except the public school propaganda, we could get a generation of decent, caring individuals who can think and act on their own. Without young, impressionable minds, the devolutionary cycle can be broken.
