so overall people live better
and there are opportunities for people to come out of poverty
Yes you can have the basic if you live the basic life
Most is not all. How about the people who live in the inner city and have terrible schools?
That's not opportunity!
Look at omish people
They make nothing and live perfectly fine
they could still work hard enough to get grades and go to college
that IS opportunity
the fact they are given schooling at all
that is certainly not a give-in historically nor now globally
Their schooling is practically non-existent
Brb
It’s late
Early
Idk
They have not enough books, outdated books, not many arts or language or music programs, etc.
K
doesnt matter
they just need to get through it with grades and then they can get accepted to college
and enter the middle class
If they don't have the education, how are they gonna take part in extracurriculars or idk get a good score on the SATs/ACTs?
you dont need brilliant grades to get into trades school
If schools don't have extracurriculars, they can't do them
im not talking about harvard
the opportunity to pull themselves out of poverty
like i said initially
is there
Well why is that only the rich get to go to Harvard?
Tell me then. Why do you believe education should be limited?
this isnt a discussion about corruption
of course theres corruption in the system
its that capitalism provides people the opporutnity to enter the middle class with relatively minimal effort
public schooling -> trades school
and youre making more than average salary and in the 1% globally
The best education is supposed to be for the best students, not the richest students
If there is corruption, then why don't we try to eradicate it?
It'll take time and effort, but it's not impossible
thats not what we're talking about but i guess the discussion is over
