The problem is not that people are uneducated.
The problem is that people are just educated enough to believe what they have been taught, and not educated enough to question anything they have been taught.

I think this is true. It’s hard to question everything you’ve been taught or learned as true.

Enough to be gullible, not enough to be skeptical
Very interesting quote and unfortunately so true!!
Feynman was able to bring comprehension of physics to the layman in “Six Easy Pieces.” At the time he made that statement they were still generally teaching students to think—and they were allowed to. For the 30 yrs or so that followed, a college degree assured you were employable—and a value.
Unfortunately true.
Taught to follow not lead
University degrees used to be about learning the skill of critical thought above all else .... overtime it degenerated into rote learning preordained 'facts'.
