My favourite part in that picture is that seemingly one of the students has to miss out on that knowledge since they need to operate the crank.
He's from the next grade up. He already had that batch of knowledge pulp extruded into his brain.
If they put a motor on the knowledge machine, that kid will be out of a job and his family has to move back to the country to tend the fields.
Bold of you to assume they aren't outsourcing the farm jobs to big machinery producers(John Deere) or prison forced labor.
His parents are behind on tuition
Must be a public school
