You supposition is incorrect. Society gains greatly from education. Studies say for every dollar spend on head start society gets between $30 and $60 back in reduction in crime and increased productivity. I don't know where to find the study, but remember it well. What I do believe is that it is impossible for a society to spend more on education than it will get back. What I can show you are graphs that show for every year of education, every year, the person makes more money over their lifetime. The more education the more money. All o fmy friends with at least a BA degree never use any welfare at all. They all have well paying jobs. It si my friends without an education that struggle. And I have both types. << When should a person get educated. How much do they need? How many billions of tax dollars should be poured into a program which produces no detectable benefits? Answer my question.
