Education has long been embraced as one of the best ways to combat inequality. Yet, this faith in the power of education has begun to falter. There is mounting evidence that improving our education system won’t do much to fix inequality.
Modern inequality isn’t driven by the gap between college-educated workers and high school grads. All the action is at the top of the income ladder, where the extremely rich have pulled away from everyone else.
Since 1979, wages for the top 1 percent in the United States have grown nine times faster than wages for the bottom 90 percent. That’s not a tale of the well-educated doing better than the less-well-educated. It’s about the super-rich outearning everyone else—including college graduates, who haven’t gotten a raise in over a decade.
So what doesn’t seem to work is a focus on improving education. Even if we could dramatically increase the number of college graduates, or greatly expand access to high-quality education, the United States would likely remain an extremely unequal place, a country where even college grads are being left behind.
选项
答案
教育,长期以来一直被奉为消除不平等的最佳途径之一。然而,对教育力量的这种信念已经开始动摇。有越来越多的证据表明,改进我们的教育体制对于解决不平等收效甚微。 当代的不平等并非是受过大学教育的工作者与高中毕业生之间差距过大所致。问题的关键在收入阶梯的顶端,那些极其富有者已经甩开了其他所有人。 自1979年以来,美国1%顶尖的人的收入增速要比90%底层的人快9倍。这并不是说受过良好教育的人比没有受过良好教育的人更出色,而是超级富豪的收入超过其他所有人——包括那些在10多年里从没涨过薪水的大学毕业生。 所以强调改进教育似乎并不奏效。即使我们可以大幅度增加大学毕业生的数量,或者大大拓宽获得高质量教育的途径,美国可能仍将是一个极度不平等的地方,一个连大学毕业生都被抛在后面的国家。
