“College isn’t the place to go for ideas” — Helen Keller
“It is possible to store the mind with a million facts and still be entirely uneducated.” — Alec Bourne.
“I have never let my schooling interfere with my education.” — Mark Twain
In Part 3 of my critical thinking and education series, I am posting a video from Charlotte Iserbyt, the Senior Policy Advisor in the Office of Educational Research and Improvement (OERI), U.S. Department of Education, during the tenure of Ronald Reagan, and author of “The Deliberate Dumbing Down of America”, as the substantive portion of this commentary. Ms. Iserbyt’s father and grandfather were members of the Skull & Bones secret society and as Senior Policy Advisor of the OERI, Ms. Iserbty had access to an abundance of secretive minutes from past educational policy meetings that revealed the true intention of the Rockefeller and Carnegie funded global education system. Whether or not you believe everything Ms. Iserbyt has to say, her pedigree makes the interview a definite worthwhile listen despite its length and is sure to make you reconsider your views about institutional academics.
We, at maalamalama, have long stated that business school curricula promotes and instills zero knowledge critical to understanding how capital markets truly operate and how to create wealth. For this reason, we have often stated that “Delaying a College Education in this Economy is the Right Choice.” If we were responsible for building a nation’s business educational curricula, here are some of the topics we would consider mandatory, none of which are taught in business schools today, and all of which are part of the maalamalama Wealth Secrets educational online course:
A History Of Central Banks and Their Motives
How Money is Created, How the Monetary System Operates, & The True Definition of Money
The Real Definition of Inflation
How to Properly Interpret “Official” Government Key Economic Indicators
How to Interpret Publicly Released Corporate Earnings Statements
How Bankers Have Shaped World Thought Through Academia & Media
Understanding Fractional Reserve Banking
Understanding Austrian v Keynesian Economics
The Real Story Behind the Efficient Market Hypothesis & Diversification Strategies
The Monetary History & Investment Value of Silver
The Monetary History & Investment Value of Gold
