"Society does not want individuals who are alert, keen, revolutionary, because such individuals will not fit into the established social pattern and they may break it up. That is why society seeks to hold your mind in its pattern, and why your so-called education encourages you to imitate, to follow, to comform."
-- J. Krishnamurti

I think there is a growing appreciation that the educational systems in North America are largely to create factory workers and office drones.  Kids put on behavioural drugs because they are diagnosed with ADHD are just the ones they've had a tougher time breaking.  But then again sometimes I'm a little cynical....
