Education doesn't work, full stop.
Most Americans learned how to read, write, and do math in schools. They aren't perfect, but I think you underestimate how much learning goes on just to become a functioning citizen.
- ThrustVectoring 11y agoMost Americans hate doing math, do not read for pleasure, and rarely write outside of work. That's not anywhere close to success. The most important skill for getting good at something is enjoying it, and our current educational system is actively counterproductive on that axis.
