We don't care fuck-all about education. Wait, we don't care fuck-all about educating other people's kids. So there is no money in it. The only people who go into teaching do it because they love it. Then we pay them shit and burn them out. Except for the lucky few who end up at private schools.

But fixing the damage we do to ourselves with the lifestyles we don't want to fix? That's worth some coin. So medicine also attracts the ones just looking for the money. But since the serious dough is in specialization, that's what everyone does.
