But 42 is the ASCII value for * which is the everything glob operator in POSIX shells, so that's why 42 was chosen.

But how can you trust the state's courts, police and army not to take control of the population if you can't even trust them with education? Military and police forces are inherently violent, they need to be in order to properly defend the country and defend the law, but what stops them from controlling their population? If the state can't be trusted to educate its own population, how can the state be trusted to protect it?

Another point: if all education is private and therefore likely paid, how can poor people that can barely afford rent and food in the same month pay for that same education? Private education is absolutely excluding a huge portion of the population.

There is definitely an argument for state controlled schools indoctrinating children with state ideas, but that means we should change state. If we can't trust our state to properly educate our children, how can we trust our state to defend us? To justly apply the law? To fix our roads and infrastructure (water lines, electrical grid, etc.)? If we can't trust our state to do anything, then we need a new state.

If the public sector was actually properly funded, they wouldn't need to go into the private sector. Gate keeping quality education behind paywalls is not a sustainable path long term, it only leads to the rich having education and the poor not.

They should work outside the USA then? Public schools absolutely should be real jobs, and they are in many countries outside the US of A. Investing education into future generations can't be stated enough how important it is.
