MODERATORS
Yes, I acknowledge that this would be a shock to society in the short term. But do we really want to maintain the current status quo?
When I wrote Internet, I don't necessarily mean people will have to teach everything to themselves. I mean services like online classes which offer similar curriculums to a university course.
I think if you read my comment again, you'd find I acknowledge things need to change, I just think your proposed solution is bad.
I can imagine ways to accomplish these goals more gradually, with less complete and utter destruction, but I don't think someone who proposed something so extreme from the word go really wants to discuss the moderate stance, so I'll leave it with you as a thought exercise.
I agree with you that we could do this gradually. I'm just creating a what-if scenario in this thread.
