Ignoring Reality
Aldous Huxley is not the only author/philosopher to warn our society not to avoid dealing with whatever harsh truths we may encounter.
To what does this concept best apply in today’s world? Well, for one, our educational standards continue to decline, because we’re unwilling to invest in more and better teachers. In turn, this causes an electorate that is easily fooled by liars, and generations of people who are ill-equipped in the global marketplace.
