Right, so what do we do?
I say the government establish a first class public education system. Not good public schools for the rich kids and shitty public schools for the poor. We raise the standards for teachers and start paying them what they are worth.
Throw a better, more effective public health system that can be accessed by all into the mix and maybe then we can start talking about equal opportunity.
Also, spend more money on public libraries and public broadcasting as well.
