If you think this is truly beneficial you should be able to hire people to do it. If you can't convince people to do this what right do you have to force them?
That's fair, honestly. I was going to make a quip about kids not wanting to learn math, so what right do we have to force them to learn it. But in all honesty, you're right. We treat kids like little machines who must do and say as we command, and that's a problem. I still stand by saying that experience with the working world would be beneficial, and that it should be part of standard education, but as far as the ethics and morality of it goes, it's a sticky area that would need much discussion.
