But poor people also have unequal access to educational resources for learning technical skills.

  And this is the perfect economic justification for free high-quality education, with some form of acceleration for the best students. This is especially in a country that has a high valued currency - as low and no-skilled jobs that can be outsourced, will be outsourced - but really true for any country as it only increases their talent pool. So if a country, like the US, wants to improve productivity, they should have an education system much like many places in Asia.

    Yes. But I don't see what this has to do with the topic at hand?

      Not all replies have to be counter to the parent post. I was just riffing off your parent post, much like you were. The topic of the thread being that the poor have unequal access to education, but that exceptional talent may exist within that cohort. I just wanted to emphasise the economic incentives of universal access to educational opportunities.
