Education is essential to the success of any nation, and of any individual person. The education system is so fragmented and inefficient, that the United States is falling behind.
The cost of education. Yes, there is a public school system, but that only takes kids so far. Private schooling is often expensive, and free charter schooling is rare If educating students though to college would only stimulate our economy and help the state, why does the government not help more, or even just pay for college?
Also, what of stress? I have been physically injured (stress triggered muscle spasm, tore a muscle off the bone) from stress, and have had a close friend suffer a seizure. The way education is structured is extremely stressful, making it less efficient. This is a problem to investigate.
