Post School or Scam

I'm at the verge of thinking that schools are the "Dow-Jones" of the government. Politicians invest tons of money in them (selected by general school-wide grade) so the teachers try all the harder to make students pass a test instead of making them learn for a future

examples are

>longer school period(summer school, some even have year-round school

>more programs for the gifted (actually is just increased amount of work)

>more expectations to students per year. ({to kindergarten kids} Ok, kids. today we are going to learn the planets in space.

>Etc.
