The banking cartel has led education circles with a gold pen in its nose for a long time.
With grants determining what the colleges teach and who teaches, their influence is tremendous.

John D. Rockefeller had his impact on schools through many indirect and hidden means.

           Just so we're all clear about the purpose of compulsory public schooling,
            here is what John Gatto reported discovering a short time ago in John D.
            Rockefeller's 1906 General Education Bulletin; the document can be viewed
            at the Rockefeller Archive:


            "In our dreams, people yield themselves with perfect docility to our
            molding hands. The present eduction conventions of intellectual and
            character education fade from their minds, and, unhampered by tradition,
            we work our own good will upon a grateful and responsive folk. We shall
            not try to make these people, or any of their children, into philosophers,
            or men of science. We have not to raise up from them authors, educators,
            poets or men of letters. We shall not search for great artists, painters,
            musicians nor lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen -- of
            whom we have an ample supply. The task is simple. We will organize
            children and teach them in a perfect way the things their fathers and
            mothers are doing in an imperfect way."


           John concludes: The tracks of what 20th century forced schooling was meant
            to be are right on the surface, right under our noses. But we avoid seeing
            what's there in the hopes it will go away. The state is busy organizing
            your children and linking them inextricably to the current economy, just as
            if the way we live together in society today is the end of history and the
            best we can do. It wasn't greed that drove this astonishing project to
            organize everybody and everything, but another of the deadly sins, pride.
            It was a dream of political and economic unification of the globe under
            rational scientific management just as if THAT could account for everything
            of worth. The presumptive planetary managers didn't hate ordinary people,
            but they did consider them waste products....
