The chimp

Video from recent BBC advert showing chimp teaching young to use tools

Commentary in the style of David Attenborough

The chimp shows his young friend how to get termites with a stick

He could charge a fee for teaching the young chimp how to get termites

For example three thousand termites per year for three years

He could patent the stick and claim a portion of all the termites collected

He could own the termites and charge for access

What a fool

How primitive

Education is neither an indulgence for which people have to pay, nor an offence for which they should be penalised, but an investment, the cost of which should be shared by the community.
