Why are Teachers Teaching?

[Waratah]

Stue has pointed out my errors, thank you Stue. Sorry Koolay.

So to answer your 2nd question a 2nd time, yes I see problems with your first question. Your first premise I say is bullshit in my opinion. Your second premise is wrong because their job, government or not, is to teach the curriculum as far as I am aware(I was going to put, is it not, then question mark, but now I can save all that writing by just putting a question mark after aware. I have to say isn't english just so much fun, NOT.)?

Sort of off topic: Are premises still premises when you put a question mark at the end of a declarative statement?

But when government compulsory schools were established, it's purpose was to indoctrinate children into accepting the religion and/or monarchy by teaching the children obedience to 'elders' or 'superiors'. To this day, it hasn't changed a bit, as government school is completely hierarchical and children are essentially political livestock for the ruling class.

What does the above have to do with this:

Government teachers for the most part are failed professionals, but their job is to teach children how to have a successful career?

I have heard of moving goal posts, but you have just changed fields.
