I thought school was for basic education, not getting ready for the labor market.

The point of school is to churn out workers. The government didn't throw money into education because it felt generous.

That hasn't been the case... Ever I think. We're still trapped in the industrial revolution's education system - create laborers - but with a lot of extraneous bullshit tacked on in an attempt to mesh it's obsolescence with modernity and labor-saving tech. It's always been about controlling the workers.
