Yes, a self-respecting person definitely cannot live without education, BUT! You are considering too broad a segment of society. Why not take the lumpen proletariat, for example? Or some farmers? Or the poor people of Africa? Or bandits and murderers? Or the mentally ill? :) Do they really need to know mathematics? Physics? Astronomy? And all that other unnecessary nonsense for their lives? I think the answer is obvious. They can learn in middle school, and that will be enough for them, and they will learn about their profession (for example, raising livestock, growing goats, running a household) from their parents. Homeless people don't need to know anything at all... And murderers and thieves are not given higher education in their "specialty." I think the answer is obvious. Not everyone needs higher education!
P.S. Well, you've started quite a topic... it's a bit inappropriate. :smile02:
