    Have you done any plumbing before? It's not only about turning wrenches and screw drivers....you need to know how to calculate area, use chemicals/polymers, and how to use power tools.

    School is a necessity in this society....even with people being forced to go our citizens are plumb dumb. I don't see how society gets better without it....ppl are ****ing lazy and aren't motivated to learn anymore.

    Basic calculation and use of power tools, yeah you sure need to spend 40 hours a week for 13 years locked in a room with 30 kids and one disinterested adult to do that....

    Have you considered that forcing people to go and claiming it is a necessity are some of the reasons why people are dumb? We are all Pavlov's dog's making someone miserable (by sending them to be locked in a room with 30 kids and one disinterested adult for 40 hours a week) is perhaps a disincentive to learn. Teaches kids to associate learning with misery so it's not something they seek out, and with schools working on a curriculum based system everyone ends up with the same basic level of knowledge and no one seeks out anything else because they associate learning with misery.
