I didn't mean to dismiss the interview, just lower expectations that the page was about explaining the point in the title, it's not.
You're totally right that last 3 paragraphs are about education, but even most of one of them he detours into "You'll find the same thing with the press...," and talks about the media.
I don't want to tell anybody not to read it, but I'll just say I got really excited about the title, but then a little bummed out the link didn't necessarily defend that point very well. I don't mean that as a dis of Chomsky, it was a casual interview, not a vigorous essay.
