Don't forget the propaganda.

This!!! I don't actually expect our K thru 12 education system to inform the average people about macro-economic policy impacts. This is about being gullible, hearing what you want to hear, refusing to listen to opposing opinions with an open mind, and hero worship.

So if there's anything to blame on our education system (and society culture at large) it's a lack of critical thinking education and an excess of magical thinking education that emphasizes blind agreement with authority.
