    When schools make the objective of school education then children will prioritize learning the material.

    The goal is to keep them in day care while their parents are at work and getting a degree because it’s the bare minimum requirement for a shit load of jobs.

    Tests and homework can be easily gamed, cheating is literally the smart thing to do if that gets you through it to the degree.

    I had a classmate in college who paid his friend to take his finals for him IN PERSON. The classes were so big the teacher didn’t know what he looked like. These days he gets 90k/yr reprogramming streetlights.
