Also cutting education now has no effect for about 25 years or so(in their view. Its approximately right but not completely true...) Their short term brainrot is so bad they would abolish education entirely in a heart beat and coast on those miniscule savings for a few decades until the world rips itself apart...

Also, my pet conspiracy is they all know the world is going to devolve into chaos due to global heating and climate destabilization anyways so why should they care about education when its not going to produce anything worthwhile when the chaos hits... from what I'm seeing 2040 is where things get dicey and most things have inflected negative. 2050 is where things break down genuinely. Too many bad things happen at once...

I've already accepted that I'll join the revolution when it comes. I will gladly strive for the communist cause.
