I mean everyone on this thread seems to be pointing to the negative. I would like to point out that what we have achieved from a civilization perspective is literally through education and the structures that we have have gotten us this far. It is a broad tool and could be better. However lets not throw the baby out with the bath water because of all these anecdotes. It feels a little like everyone complaining about capitalism for all the woes in the world.

Maybe it's worth a bit of perspective.
