Capitalists I know encourage privately-funded lifelong-education, such as completing an EMBA and various professional qualifications.
Socialists I know encourage publicly-funded lifelong-education, retraining and reskilling workers so that they can adapt to emerging economic situations.
I accept that education must not interfere with the democratic process, and that politicians will invariably be less educated than equivalently paid members of wider society, but it seems to me that lifelong-education is a universally accepted ideal so why is the issue so rarely promoted? How did our national models end up promoting a completed education before entering work, instead of adopting a staggered lifelong approach?
