[QUOTE="Nithavela, post: 77659322, member: 185184"] I don't think that a lack of teaching children "math and english" is what causes poverty. Unless those children go into STEM, those skills are pretty useless above a certain level, when it comes to jobs. You can't just teach people math or english and expect them to magically have a job materialise after school or college, especially in todays world, where any kind of creative job is in dire threat of being done by friend computer sooner or later. What would really help young people avoid unemployment and poverty, in my opinion, would be a strengthening of the trades. Encourage children to go into trades, improve working conditions and public image for those jobs and you might get plenty of people who have gainful employment for as long as the AI overlords don't build robots who can tile a roof or insulate a wall. They might even make it halfway to retirement before their jobs are obsolete. Unless of course if the goal is not to ensure that those children are prepared for the job market, but only to ensure they aren't taught DEI or wokeness. Then I guess occupying their minds with english or math is an acceptable choice. [/QUOTE]
