During Roman times, children's educators were usually slaves. Nothing has changed. The principal thing a slave can teach children is how to not be free and make the best of it. In other words, how to think like a slave.

There is truth to this. Also a lot that is false. Our education systems train people to think and work in a rote manner. The same is expected of people in most jobs. Most people have more creative energy than they realize. Under the right conditions they would harness it gladly.
