No offense, but this is where it starts getting weird and into the whole "society is bad!" that seems pretty extreme:

>They just choose to not settle for the mediocrity, nor accept the indoctrination pushed by the education system.

Most people I know who went to public schools came out fairly well. I refuse to share this elitist/ideological attitude towards them. What indoctrination? Don't you think that's a rather general and blanket statement considering how varied each school district is? Maybe that's more of a criticism of how schools are run in your area.
