If compulsory schooling is so great and works better than homeschooling, why are people dumber?

If you look at a fifth grade math book from the 1840s it's what we'd call like college level today. Books that were written for the common man are now considered deep and dense and tough. All of this consides rather conveniently with when we started forcing people to go through twelve years of Prussian style schooling which was never supposed to educate in the first place, have you read Horace Mann and his contemporaries?

If you can give me a decent refutation I will be incredibly grateful.

Also, why do you keep on acting like homeschoolers need to prove themselves? If anything you schoolers do. We're as old as humanity and you guys are only about 150 years old. So even if creationists are right -which I don't believe- we have about 5850 years on you.

It seems like on the statistically rare occasions somebody uses homeschooling as an excuse to isolate, abuse, molest, or otherwise harm their kids, everyone instantly piles on the bandwagon and says, "YOU SEE! HOMESCHOOLING IS BAD!!!" Whenever there's a kid who's a little different from the norm, it's automatically assumed that he's sheltered, miserable, and will never be able to lead a productive life. Whenever somebody knows one homeschooler who wants to try out school, they say, "YOU SEE? HOMESCHOOLERS HATE BEING HOMESCHOOLED!"

And yet...

Just about everybody's kids complain about school. People don't like it when they're in and they only talk about how broken it is while they're out. Every day, you hear about increased violence in schools. Yet nobody says, "YOU SEE! SCHOOL IS BAD!"

After Columbine, which was about as drastic and covered by the media as you could get, nobody said anything about stopping schooling.

Why are people such hypocrites about this?
