What does education have to do with this? Are we really still pretending in this day and age that education is some magical panacea to fix even a fraction of the ills? A populace with a lot of education and a poor means to earn a living wage just means you'll end up with a lot of educated poor people.
The current way of things is an anomaly in human history. You can't have a continuous consolidation of wealth by the very few AND allow them to capture the means of production and pretend that things are going to be hunky dory in the long run. Either you ensure that the average person can have a comfortable life in your system, or heads are eventually going to start rolling. The only question is how long before that happens.
