I like some of what Alex Jones has to say, but I am not sure why you are so adamantly against schooling.

Did you know that schools in the industrial revolution were organized to get kids off of the streets to keep them out of trouble? Seems to work, and gives them some direction instead of being miscreants in the street.

Maybe Thumpsky got expelled recently?

The only real problem with schooling is that you can't use a one-size-fits-all approach.
Different schools, and different teaching methods, are required for different people.
I was lucky and ended upat a highschool that was right, but bombed out of Uni because my uni teachers couldn't be arsed teaching... They were all too busy writing their thesii to give students any actual help, so you were left to your own devices.
