Linguistics For The Ordinary Person.

In my opinion, 99% of real crime in the world is condoned by our so-called educational establishments. I mean big-time crime - the stuff that even elected governments are party to, and sometimes even victims of. So, why do I pick on our "educational" establishments? Because,I have long thought that at primary level, children should be informed on the importance of the words we use and on the best uses of versus the abuse of. Most of the world's thieving and cheating has always, and continues to be, concealed by the simple ploy of vocabulary-switching. It goes back a long time! Biblical reference to the Tower of Babel may be origin of "babble" -dressed up as the "gift of tongues".It may also be labelled as jesuitry (OED), code, emergency legislation, National Security,and many other things too. But while it's purpose can be positive if used to raise everybody's level of understanding, it is almost always used as an advantage of the better educated against the less educated. That the better educated continue to abuse the less educated in this way says little for our educators. They praise charities rather than call for improvements to make them un-necessary - is that not a fair indicator?
