Free education:
People get a longer education => Jobs get more selective about education and require longer studies => People have to get a longer education to get a job => Jobs get even more selective => etc...
Cheaper education will create more educated people, unfortunately that doesn't create new job prospects.
- eveningcoffee 9y agoFree education does not mean that you get paid while studding. You still have to find means to clothe and feed yourself and find a roof above your head during the nights.
- nickthemagicman 9y agoWell that's the way the knowledge economy works! It's based on your knowledge. So obvs people with more knowledge have better opportunities. It's how it works today except lots of people are left out. The difference is, with everyone educated, now you have a highly knowledgeable populace who are capable of solving harder problems, starting business to solve these problems, etc. I would rather have 1000 people working on Cancer research than at the DMV pushing paper or laying brick. Things machines can do. We would have a net improvement in people's lives and the human race. It's like a win win for everyone.
