“Fancy private schools that train the children of the elite, who go on to be leaders in society? Or mediocre suburban schools who train workers?”
“leaders...workers”
There are more jobs for workers than leaders, ask the CEOs of the Fortune 500.
Here’s a nice quote from C.S. Lewis for you:
“You see at once that education is essentially for freemen and vocational training for slaves. That is how they were distributed in the old unequal societies; the poor man’s son was apprenticed to a trade, the rich man’s son went to Eton and Oxford and then made the grand tour.”
