This quote reads as advocacy for unconditional basic income. I don't think education would ever be considered "dilly-dallying" in a society where poverty is generally impossible.

Hopefully that would also mean education would become cheaper.
Actually, given how expensive education is right now in the states, you could probably take the money one would spend on educating someone, put it in stocks or whatever, and have a nice 20+k yearly income, for which two people can rent a cabin in the mountains, grow their vegetable garden and chill.
Maybe corporations should adopt poor people or commission huge parties or works of art.
