The biggest problem that I see in the west was the rise of the belief that anyone can simply go through a curriculum and now be upper middle class too. It's ruining potential, drive, competition, etc. It's super quasi-Marxist as well.

There are growing populist movements in France and Spain for sure. And you could be correct in establishing a pattern between slower economies, higher-inequality and unrest. > This winner take all economy is stupid Yes i.e. crony capitalism. > this competition is the result Of course, everyone doing the exact same thing and expecting to be the exception to the rule is not actually competition. Why are you not asking the more critical questions like: why is there yet no competition to Universities themselves?
