This is what happens in socialism, the politicians and their cronies control education. The public educational system is designed to produce welfare recipients that are dependent on the government of all of their needs, not academic intellects. Academic intellects can provide for themselves because they have the skills, knowledge, training, etc, to do so.

We're not a socialist country. We're not even close to be one of the most socialist countries on that list. Many of the countries that scored higher than us have way more socialism than we do. Do you know what many of them don't have? A high child poverty rate. If you think the spending on welfare here is high, the spending on welfare is proportionally so high in some of those other countries, they have nearly eradicated child poverty.
