Education! Just A Hoax!!

It's funny what they say about education nowadays, "You Need It"!! they cry. Well if that's the case then why are so many people dropping out of high school and being on the streets and just have no direction in life? I can't speak for those people but in my opinion the educational system is going to the crapper. Education should be treasured yes, but it should not be taken advantage of and be taken for granted. It can get you far in life yes, but in my opinion it can only get you so far. People like me are smart in a lot of areas already and we don't need school to help sharpen those areas because all the schooling does is give us assignments and make us do things that isn't even related to the subject we need and want to learn in the first place so it doesn't really make any sense to sit in a desk for hours and listen to an instructor tell you about things when you already know them. Education is for people that aren't as smart as the rest of us, all it means to be and all it is to me is a piece of paper with my name on it saying i'm a specialist in a certain area. Who cares? as far as i'm concerned I do not need a paper tellling me that, because I already know it. Some schooling is a waste of time but most of it is valuable, just not for me right now. It's quite irritating how the system works. don't you think?
