The part on education was the most cringe for me.
As a general rule: when rich big egos try to improve education, it ends poorly. Consider the Gates Foundation itself trying to MBAify teaching and then being astounded when it (a) didn't improve student outcomes and (b) drove teachers away (not surprising: if you have put up with MBA levels of brain rot you might as well get paid better than teaching can ever sustainably pay) [1].
