is education the real foundation of a nation?

As a continuation of my other response, I'll tell you that education never ends. High school preps us for college. Then college preps us for life. Then the real education begins. Let me quote from one of my discussions. "The day I stop learning is the day I want to die." You're 19. Think about what I'm telling you. If you don't now, you will in twenty years.

Education is everything. Without it... you end up being a third world country. Not only it is everything to your country... but it is everything to you personally. It is the difference between you having an easy life or a hard one. It is a shame that our most important education happens in our teenage years when most of us are irresponsible teenagers. If we could have our education when we are in our thirties... we would be far more intelligent. Unfortunately... this is not possible. Unless you choose to go to night school while working during the day.
