"Schools kill creativity"

[baseline bum]

It's to train the kids to replace their parents on the assembly line when they keel over and to obey superiors, as well as to accept the political status quo and have fidelity to the national government drilled into them (and fidelity to the old country which their parents might hold nipped in the bud).

Naturally an economy which places value on creativity and problem solving would be ill-served by such an ins ution.

Except there's no assembly line anymore.

It has to do with this country not prioritizing education like other countries. 1.32% of the budget is spent on education in this country. 1.32%!!

France spends 7.2% of GDP on Education.

Of course expenditures on "education" at the federal level are low.

Further, if expenditures were a factor in the quality of education the US should have the greatest primary and secondary education system on Earth.

Except there's no assembly line anymore.

That's the point.
