It’s so worth the struggle to reintroduce basic education about such underpinnings of civilization. The contempt of history for our arrogant and ignorant neglect is going to be bitter. In 2000 we had the funds and resources to build the next century of public works. In 2008 we had the crisis brought on by letting jackals siphon away those resources into war profiteering and financial parasitism, but we could have carved our way out of disaster with another WPA.
