So what ? Of course - you like doing what you like but say "I can't live without all this stuff produced by people who hate their lives. No way ! This stuff is needed !".

Let people be happy. If they want more stuff, they will be happy to work for it. If not - no. Give them this choice.

How is that gonna work ? Teachers and apprentices ? Read the above link. In such an organization - there is no pressure for things to "work". People will call themselves "teachers" if they want to. The day they stop wanting, the day they feel bored, or disappointed - they stop teaching. Same applies - for their "Students".
Imagine - nobody would be bored, or disturb the teacher - because he is there by his own will....

"Imagination is more important than knowledge"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albert_Einstein
Quote:
Einstein clashed with authorities and resented the school’s regimen and teaching method. He later wrote that the spirit of learning and creative thought were lost in strict rote learning. In the spring of 1895, he withdrew to join his family in Pavia, convincing the school to let him go by using a doctor’s note.[5] During this time, Einstein wrote his first scientific work, "The Investigation of the State of Aether in Magnetic Fields"
If he was kept at school - bored to death - scavenging time to live, maybe he would have not written that. That is what children go trough. Even if not all of them have the same interests as Einstein. Some say : "lazy children, they like just to live ! We know 90% will fail to be Einstein, but who cares, don't give them time to live, later they will not be able to integrate and work for us !". And even Einstein - did not agree with the system... So - the system does not even try to produce some Einstein in a million. Just to mold people...

Around 1900:
Rockefeller's General Education Board

"In our dreams. . . people yield themselves with perfect docility to our molding hands. . . . We shall not try to make these people or any of their children into philosophers or men of learning or men of science. We have not to raise up from among them authors, educators, poets, or men of letters. We shall not search for embryo great artists, painters, musicians, nor lawyers, doctors, preachers, politicians, statesmen, of whom we have ample supply. The task we set before ourselves is very simple. . . we will organize children . . . and teach them to do in a perfect way the things their fathers and mothers are doing in an imperfect way.
