I've heard a lot of adults talking about a million topics, and if they don't know the specifics they just say "I'll Google it."

Aside from the political aspects of Google, the point is pretty good -- you can learn almost everything online.
You need to repair your dishwasher? I bet you can find a YouTube video that tells you how.

Why do we warehouse kids in government schools? It's not about education. It's glorified daycare. Families would be better off keeping their kids at home and focusing on actual parenting. The "education stuff" can almost take care of itself today.
