I always feel that there is a situation when Education is evil.
In the job market there are basicaly two type of jobs, those productive jobs which generate wealth and the others which circulate wealth and their salary originates from those people with productive jobs who are taxed by the central system which then distributes salary to those who are not productive like the courts, the parliaments, the police, the army, the teachers working for the "government", religious higher archy and so many others.
With the unprofuctive jobs in EU now toping Euros200,000, the peoductive workers are encouraging their children to take up such unproductive posts. hence eventually the system is unsustainable. The same when Education teaches about birth control, and the new way of life for parents becomes such that they chose to have less children. The final result is that pensions for the grandparents cannot be afforded nor stipends for students and eventually what is promised to the public cannot be delivered.
I just wonder if Malta could conduct a research in " Wne Education is Evil to start the process of diminishing returns!"
