"better democratic citizens"? Too broad a concept to nail down.

Education is a tool. How you use it depends on you. I can kill you with a hammer or make a house with it. Education in the right direction gives them a better tool, with which to make a living. If you cannot do that, we have nothing to discuss. If you have a PhD in say Sherlock Holmes. What will you do with it besides become a parasite or at best work in McDs?
