Chapter 187: Hereditary Education
Takayuki Nanno and Kazuya Takahashi each got the “prey” they wanted. After they left the venue, each of them went to a nearby five-star hotel with their women.
Masayoshi Kishimoto realized that they were definitely not sleeping alone. Before they fell asleep, they would engage in a number of adult bed exercises. Even if it wasn’t a turnover, there would be clouds and rain.
Masayoshi Kishimoto took a taxi back to his home in Nishimabu, Minato-ku, alone. Before he even entered his home, he noticed that the lights in the large living room on the first floor of his home were still on.
He knew that Sakai Rie had the habit of going to bed early and waking up early. This once sleeping late happened to her, it was bound to be something.
Masayoshi Kishimoto took out his key and opened the door. He saw Sakai Rie sitting alone on top of the long sofa, holding a red wine glass in her right hand as she sipped alone.
“Drink less and go to bed early.” Masayoshi Kishimoto threw down this sentence and wanted to go upstairs to take a bath and go to bed.
“Are you able to come over and talk with me?” Sakai Rie said bluntly.
Without refusing, Masayoshi Kishimoto walked over towards her and sat down on top of a single sofa on his left side. As soon as his butt sat down, he smoothly leaned his back against the back of the chair.
“I’ve been stimulated today.” Rie Sakai said as she gently shook her tulip-shaped red wine glass in her right hand.
Masayoshi Kishimoto unhurriedly crossed his legs and swayed, and said with a heartfelt smile, “What a rarity, you still have times when you are stimulated.”
“Today, the Rosebud Society organized a gathering. The topic was about children’s education. To this day, I realized that they had started a small group a long time ago.
Even the teachers who hire cram schools or tutors are kept secret. Only among the members of the Rosebud Society can they pass on and share relevant information. If any of us leaks out the information, we will be kicked out.
Not to mention the children of poor families, even the middle class children can’t share the quality education resources with the children of rich families.
What is this talk about fairness in education? It’s all a lie. The good teachers all go to the rich.” Sakai Rie lamented.
“I thought you’ve been stimulated by something? So it’s because of the hereditary nature of education! What’s so strange about that. From kindergarten to high school, those top private schools have been around for ages.
Even the allocation of enrollment slots is basically a distribution within the established upper class circle. As long as one person in your family enrolled in that school in the first place, then they will always enjoy such a place or priority in the future.
In the next tier of private schools, what parents do, what grandparents do, what grandparents do, how well educated they are, how much the family earns per year, etc. will all be included in the school’s examination.
As for those schools for the general public, there is no threshold at all. As a result, children attending such free schools will have to make a lot of detours in their studies, because after all, the teachers are not good enough.
After all, the teachers aren’t very good, and most of the teachers who write the questions for the entrance exams come from prestigious schools. In addition, private schools have more connections than public schools, both in the government and in the private sector.
Even government funding for education is skewed in favor of prestigious schools. The reason is simple: officials and legislators often come from prestigious schools.
Their children, grandchildren, and grandchildren will follow in their footsteps and attend the same prestigious schools.
The average public school dunce doesn’t think he’s stupid, he thinks he’s smart, and never has a chance to make a name for himself.
In order not to be criticized by public opinion, the prestigious schools will also be shy and caring, offering a few places to the hardworking and smart children of the lower and middle classes.
But then again, if everyone could get ahead, then who would do the jobs of waitresses, cleaners, etc.?” Masayoshi Kishimoto said calmly.
“No one in your family has ever studied within a top private school either, and even less in my family. In the future, what about the children?” Rie Sakai naturally thought about how her offspring should also receive the highest quality education Dao.
“That’s a good thing to do. What does your Rose Society do? Among other things, there is the aspect of sharing and passing on information. In the future, if you have your eye on any school, you can go to it.
At that time, wouldn’t it be fine for me to make a large donation. I’ll just spend money on whichever school I want to buy a place at.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said nonchalantly.
“What if this method you mentioned doesn’t work?” Sakai Rie said as she put down the glass of wine in her hand.
“It’s always fine for me to just pay for whichever school I want to buy! I’ll become a school board member myself. In addition to this one method, you can also buy places from the hands of any wayward famous families.
Don’t forget, didn’t you pay for that one golf membership of yours from the hands of other people?” Masayoshi Kishimoto cut in.
“It’s just about impossible for the children of the poor to get ahead. Not only that, it makes me feel like their intelligence level will drop overall and they’ll get dumber and dumber. Students taught by mediocre teachers will only become more mediocre.” Rie Sakai sighed.
“Their difficulty in escaping the fate of being enslaved for generations is not designed by God, but by the smartest bunch of people in this world ages ago.
As society develops and progresses, it then continues to make all sorts of improvements to make it look more and more fair on the surface. Modern society to exploitation and extraction to do more and more hidden, not like the feudal society so bare direct whip service.
Nowadays, many people have not yet broken free from the invisible chains around their necks. Didn’t Marx say that? Workers have nothing but chains.” Masayoshi Kishimoto said in a serious manner.
Sakai Rie’s body leaned forward in concentration to look at him and said, “And how did you escape your set fate?”
“Who made me smart?” Masayoshi Kishimoto was not able to say that he was the one who was reborn to be able to foretell things. He squeezed his eyebrows and laughed and said.
“I’m asking you seriously. Not joking with you.” Sakai Rie seriously said.
“I’m also answering you seriously. Marx also said that once classes are formed, then it’s nearly impossible for people out of each class to break the chasm of class barriers.
I myself have pursued to the minutiae and seen a little bit of it, and I also hope to find the key to a happy life. However, the city I live in, the organization I work in, the reality I come into contact with, class is solidifying, the rich are getting richer and richer, and the poor are still poor.
The people who are able to cross the class divide are not ordinary people. They are the anomalies among the masses, the one in a million, one in ten million, or even one in a hundred million.
These few people are born to play the role of leaders in human society. Some women have the gift of being able to tell at a glance who is the boss, who is the richest, who is the most powerful among a large number of men.
Education is supposed to bridge the gap between classes. However, there are only so many good schools and good teachers, so it is impossible for everyone to benefit. Good teachers are human beings who also want a good life.
So they naturally go where the money is. The children recruited from places that can afford the money will inevitably not come from a poor background.” Masayoshi Kishimoto put away his smile and said.
