What a load of crap. The education system brings up the lower half of kids. The rest of you in the top 10%, you're going to have fantastic life outcomes no matter what happens in school. Stop whining. 100% of kids aren't born creative geniuses, they'll be lucky to graduate and provide for themselves.

Yes and no. By when you're rich you can buy your way into good schools. Schooling should be used as an educational tool, but it is not the sole tool for knowledge.
