Yeah, basically.
If you want a school system that doesn't suck you do have to pay for it.
Same goes for the rest of social support structures.
America might not be ready for this but plenty of other countries have managed it fine so I'm sure with how filthy rich America is they can work it out.
Additionally, we would need to provide various ways for kids to spend more of their time at school (how else are you going to lessen parents' influence)?
And then, after holding on to such an investment for 18 years (a bit more), we will begin to see results?
Aside from the cost, because this would mean 300% raises, minimum, for teaching staff, this would be a social bloodbath, and the education sector will fight anything that goes 1% in that direction to the death.
