Read UN human rights list. It states right there that schools should be mandatory and mandatory teach about the UN. And in another section of the document it says rights are "universal" to people that aren't against UN interests. Many countries happily follow these "guidelines" in the school sense... how is that education? From my personal experience school was just a indoctrination tool, to make people subservient to state, employers and the UN. All useful stuff I learned, even decent basic maths and language was learned outside school (example: my parents taught me maths, my grandmother taught me how to read and write, I learned English, Lua, C, etc... on my own, learned physics and chemistry by reading books)

Many people, especially PoC and "poor people", do not have this advantage (be it because parents or other family are locked up in jails, or because parents have to both work two jobs in order to make rent) - public schools are the only education resource for kids in these families. We as a society must not let them down or we will face the harsh consequences in the future.

Right. Public school is just some worldwide conspiracy. I'm sure the Trilateral Commission had something to do with it. By all means abolish them. It would certainly drastically reduce my property taxes. </s>

Education should be mandatory, and should teach about the UN just as they should teach about all recent 20th century history. The UN is very important to the state the world is in. >From my personal experience school was just a indoctrination tool, to make people subservient to state, employers and the UN.
