It's unclear to me which country you mean you'd rather live in.
But for me, I actually do prefer to live in the US. But it's a fallacy to think there aren't ways the best could be improved. IMO the US could stand to do a little bit of growing up, and get rid of this "life is a club/party, and partying is the meaning of life" mentality that I see is so the root of many different kinds of behaviors (that are not partying in and of themselves)
i agree, but the life is a club/party mentality isn’t what’s plaguing education, it’s the waste of time trying to get the bottom 10% of kids to perform at the median level. when i was in school, those kids got sent to alternative school so the rest of us could actually learn.
furthermore, i think not enough attention is being paid to the top 10% of students, most of whom are ignored as the teacher tries to wrangle a few shitheads poisoning the well of the classroom so to speak.
i think teachers should be paid roughly 5x their current median wage while simultaneously making it as difficult to become a teacher as a doctor , lawyer, or any other prestigious licensed position
