Regarding education, do the people who need it the most (underutilized adult workers) clearly understand how to pursue it? Do they understand the costs, benefits, risks, and rewards? I doubt it. Policies should emphasize the of dissemination information that ties education to opportunity. That way people can make informed decisions (e.g. 'if I do these things, spend this much money, spend this much time, then I can expect to make this much money, in these metro areas'). Maybe education is partly a design problem? What if education was just easier to plan for, obtain, validate, and apply?
