More opportunities to get education is what we need to be investing in. Too many intelligent people that want educations in poverty or dealing with other stuff aren't able to get the education we invest in because they're helping out at home or other stuff like that. I know a kid who's parents passed and he lives with his grandmother, but she's extremely old (in her eighties or nineties i believe) and he doesn't do much homework or do anything with friends because he's always making sure she's taking medicine or getting groceries (when he can't find a ride he walks to the grocery store because she isn't really supposed to drive)
So yeah, I didn't know if you had said that in a sarcastic way or not, but I just wanted to point out that's it's not so much as education...
Well, I don't know what can be done about situations like that, aside from maybe offering online classes, but you still would have to find time to take them. Plus, classes like biology and others that use a lab wouldn't be possible to take.
But yeah, I'm seriously pro-education. I think it's sick when the state takes from school because their budget is effed. It's even worse when, like in Stockton CA where I live, they also take from police and fire departments. Because it's totally logical that when your students suffer, they won't have to resort to crime or anything just to make ends meet...
That's it. We really need to start investing more in education.
