Education drives economic prosperity and is the tool to building a moral healthy society. For the betterment of everyone as many people as possible should be educated.
Strive to learn something everyday. Every situation introduces new information and can help you later in life. Learn a new skill or trade. Learn history, science, art. Learn to be more culturally aware or even to be kinder to others. Learn everything you can. Knowledge is power.
Knowing more is always a superior state of being to knowing less. Ignorance is not bliss, it is the lack of facts. Collect facts, analyze them, and have informed opinions.
