[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think school is the driver for financial success nor wisdom. I don't think ultimately any of this matters because public school is for the masses. You have to want to succeed and/or be educated. Cream rises to the top and always will find a way. Ultimately, you'll never construct a society where everyone is going to be equal. I do wish trades were more celebrated and encouraged but you know, there's a lot of money to be made there even if you aren't academically inclined so that's an example of it's not academics that lead to success 100%. I think people need to realize that desire to succeed, to learn, to want better is always a minority. It doesn't really matter how we set up the system, those who want better and are able to do well will always do so but the reverse is true too. No matter how strict we make the system and hoping kids are pushed up to calc, it won't ever be enough kids who will get there. [/quote] OK[/quote]
