Bad education systems for poor people has a been a problem since the beginning of time. However, given the times we live in now, one can more easily take matters into their own hands and take corrective action. e.g. if you have a bum math teacher, just log onto youtube and watch some Khan Academy lectures. of course, the Internet is not a panacea, but it can narrow the education gap much more effectively than most anything other method. As cited, the internet is much better at helping rectify bad or lax teaching methods than creating a safe learning environment. i.e. It can't do much about bullies stealing your lunch money, or having to dodge stray bullets on the walk to school.
