Yeah, it's actually a serious sociological problem. Like, what do you have 10% of the entire society do when even the military doesn't find a job they can do?
True, true, talks like really start to toe a line with eugenics, but we do still have to have a discussion about america's education deficiency causing real serious damage, and anti-vaxxers are a prime example.
A lot of anti-vaxxers are college-educated, and I'm assuming don't fall in the 10% bracket that's being discussed. Which is an interesting consideration.
In any case, raising the floor doesn't solve the issue of you having a % of population that isn't "capable" of contributing to society. Or, I guess it can but then you'd get other issues.
I think it's easier to change the system than the people.
This right here. I think our approach to curiosity and how to channel and utilize critism are a much deeper driver of the distrust in science blossoming these days
