Education tends to raise productivity and creativity, as well as stimulate entrepreneurship and technological breakthroughs. All of these factors lead to greater output and economic growth The right wing in this country make it a mission to dumb down and cherry pick facts to promote a narrative which is misinformation at best and propaganda at worst
