The Higher Purpose of Tradional Education

“What we call “Education” works like this: Information is pumped into the left brain – most of it completely rubbish – and what students are asked to do is to hold that information there, and then when they get an exam paper in front of them to regurgitate that onto the paper.

If they remember it and put it there well enough and repeat what they’ve been told, they pass the exam and progress.

If they take that information in the Left Brain; transfer it to the Right and start filtering it and questioning it, and saying, “Well, does it make sense? What do *I* think about this?” – And then tell the exam paper, “Oh, actually it’s a piece of shhh this stuff.” – Then they don’t pass the exam, and they don’t progress.

The education system is completely built to make left brain prisoners who are basically sponges of the “official version” of life...”
– David Icke

Great knowledge and good people exist within the education system, and much necessary information is conveyed there, yes - but is not *this*, in fact, the model it runs on? Are not "left-brain prisoners" the NORMAL product of, and thus the higher level purpose of how traditional eduction is designed? (Aren't right-brain subjects like Art and Music regularly cut from school curriculums and then downplayed in the workplace?) "The people" must be trained by their "leaders" somehow don't they?
