Show Notes

Education is crucial for a good system, but current systems are unequal, segregating children based on social background and perpetuating cycles of poverty.  Addressing this requires increased funding, teacher support, and potentially banning private schools to ensure equal opportunities for all students.  Investing in education is vital for societal progress and breaking down barriers to social mobility.

A better education system is crucial for a more equitable society, but it faces challenges like outdated curricula, underfunded schools, and unequal access.  To address these issues, Ian DeBay proposes eliminating private schools, ensuring mandatory education, and utilizing technology to provide accessible and personalized learning.  Ultimately, a comprehensive system overhaul is needed, prioritizing education as the foundation for a more just and prosperous world.
