Uniformity?

The school sets a great example in classes such as health, or planning when we all make a resume with the same attributes. It almost looks like we printed it off the internet and put our name and address on it. They expect us to go out, apply and get the job that twenty of your friends applied for a few hours earlier. How can we, when every other "young adult" has the same generic resume? While one may get the job over another, it certainly doesn't help us later on when we apply somewhere else and take a picture of the resume beside us, copy it out then return and steal the job from the person who had those qualifications. They tell us "everything we need to know." Yet once we graduate, we don't know. We don't know anything.

Some schools set overly amazing examples by making you wear their uniform in order to come to school. They say uniforms make everyone equal. Yet they tell us the Commies are bad. Communism is all about students being equal with each other, but not people who are staff. Students, peasents, staff, government. I'm sensing school is a tad bit communist.

Take the Third Reich for example, school is one hell of a fascist place. We don't get to vote for our teachers, our cafeteria menu's, what we need to know more about, and we certainly don't get to start parties for our favorite teachers to run as principal. Like Hitler, school dictates when we go, what we do, who we argue with, why we learn what they scream in our ear drums, and where to place the school. We all know they strategically place the school far enough away from the good places that we decide it isn't worth going so we stay to get told where to sit. Filled with propaganda as well. If Hitler were alive, he'd be going after the school systems.

Prom is like a dictatorship. We vote on things. We set things up. We get dressed up, (everyone knows that the tie is the hardest part of prom). Then when it actually happens, we find the things we voted for were boring and not what we wanted. We should have voted on, a change of them every 10 minutes. Am I right? Just like a newly elected president should.

See how school sets us up for becoming your everyday generic peasant, a Russian Tsar, a Fascist Dictator, or a war monger leader from Northern America. We are a statistic. Another number to their graduate over drop out percentage. Most of all, school is government.
