This article is flawed in many ways. Not once does he mention the problems with modern "education" as it relates to churning out great philosophers. Philosophy requires having an open mind in order to push the boundaries of human understanding. Modern education, especially in industrialized countries, does the opposite of nurturing free thought and critical thinking. In the United States, children who express different ideas and ways of thinking at an early age are much more likely to be dosed with psychotropic drugs to "normalize" their behavior and thought patterns then to be cultivated as future great thinkers.
