The amount of resources available for free at your library is absolutely ridiculous. Wanna do a JSTOR search? Libraries gotchu. Wanna watch a movie for free? Libraries gotchu. Genealogy? Libraries gotchu. Wanna look up digitized images of sewing patterns in 1930s ladies magazines? Libraries gotchu.

100% agreed. Education really serves to manufacture people who have been inculcated with the knowledge, ideology, discipline, and culture that primes them to serve the whims of business owners and politicians. The education industry helps reproduce capitalism itself.

The idea that education can produce "good jobs" as a counterweight to capitalism's tendency to make bad jobs (through deskilling, precarity, and outsourcing) is something no educated person should believe. (Yet it is the central mission of every educational institution)
