I would suggest that society as a whole is affected by a childs lack of education.
However the lack of education we have today has nothing to do with math or science. Its an understanding of how people need to think and act in order to have a civil society. After that math is the easy part.
That is true. True, BUT. "Government" is NOT a synonym for "society." In fact, the difference between "government" and "society" is FREEDOM. The two are identical, that is, only in the absence of freedom.However the lack of education we have today has nothing to do with math or science.

I'm not certain they are quite that separable . . .
Well?...So are children who are fed...yet...we know how well collectivist farms, collectivist transport of farm goods, and collectivist grocery stores worked out.

The culture, religious, and political values that create a civil society can **NEVER** be neutral. In fact, it is utterly impossible to have a religiously, culturally, and politically neutral education. It is axiomatic. Therefore.....
**EVERY** godless, collectivist, government indoctrination camp ( mis-named "school") in this nation is a First Amendment and freedom of conscience abomination! ( The good, the bad, and the ugly!)

All education is religious, cultural, and political in content and consequences. None of it is neutral (even math). It is either taught through the lens of godless secularist worldview or it is framed within a God-centered worldview. Just ask my eighth grade nun, Sister Margaret Aloysius.
