Yes, businesses want children indoctrinated into the products that make them money.
Also, businesses want job training to be done in schools at the expense of education. I’ve talked to many people that seriously think that college is supposed to be entry-level job training. That kind of thing was always part of what new hires learn in entry-level jobs.
I was once told "we're not going to teach you what you need to know, just what employers want you to know". Lost all respect for that "teacher" in that moment, as well as the school.
This was not recently either, that kind of dumbification has been going on for decades.
That’s more worthy of respect than someone who doesn’t admit that capitalism affects our education system
I mean, are they wrong? Why else do people go into student loan debt if not to get a job?
