Public education, the economy and democracy

Is our economy dependent on public education?

Let's pretend for a moment that there is evidence of a student test score pipeline to GDP.

Let's pretend for a moment that the economy and public education are linked. I am far more concerned about a different connection.

The fate of our democracy, not our economy, is dependent on public education.

That's the link I think we need to care more about.
