What we need to do is look at criteria to why Finland and some other countries have better results on knowledge assessments compared to our country and some others.
And implement what they do. And see what happens.
You know, a scientific experiment to see if we can use their items and get the same results.
But that would also probably mean our culture of having such inequality in life must change; Finnish tend to be very collective and don't fear being deprived of vacation to interesting places, fearing living in rentals that they can't afford, possibly in a vehicle for a while, etc.
You know, they have economy that isn't a terrible throwback to the 1800's for the workers. So people have aspirations to actually learn and retain knowledge.
Ours retains what sports player, coach, actor, musician, etc. is screwing, doing, scoring, and whatever else.

Aristocracy is a parasite utterly harmful to civilization as it causes depriving of everyone initially with tokens of farts and pies called beggar giving... some people like handouts apparently you do. But most of us rather prevent the deprivation that causes the horrors in the first place, waiting for some aristocrat to bless us with building a museum for the masses, putting on a nationalist firework display to show their mystical ordain power, or for a few years showering a few poor people with some food and medical attention in some random 3rd world nation, and even more funny is was the sad effort to educate these 3rd world famine stricken riffraff into mystical magical entrepreneurs even funding their initial businesses... then it all failed because there wasn't an economy to whom to sell the new found mystically produced entrepreneur stuff as the World Bank and a group of aristocrats failed attempt at what it called entrepreneurship education and seed money. They built businesses... but nobody came. Because everyone was poor in the country.
WHOOPS!
But alas, the aristocrats so disconnected don't realize that's happening worldwide... eventually their billions or millions will not mean anything as an economy wouldn't even exist in the same sense as we continue on this absurd economic system in a few more decades.
We must switch to a co-op based business models to which workers are the owners and vote on how to operate, rather than a corporate model where all the funds are funneled to a few owners. The workers ought to be shared owners with every worker having votes on compensation, production, capital expenditures, leadership, etc. We can use the same Federal Reserve type system, call it the Federal Reserve Co-Op Bank with the duty to lend to co-ops at discount interest rates directly, similar to the liquidity discount lending our current reserve bank does to keep all of the private banks that are otherwise essentially bankrupt/insolvent afloat. Same can be done directly to co-ops.
No need for an aristocracy to go hat and hand so they can continue to parasite off our labors. Capital formation becomes literally a democratic process, and the co-op brings democracy to the workplace, and democratizes the fruits of the labor as well.
As you can see, aristocracy are as useless as the former mercantilism and feudalism of nobility and royalty.
Not only are they useless, they're harmful.
