The parallels between Latin America’s problem in educating its populace and, say, the similar problem in the Middle East are eye opening. If one doesn’t believe substandard education breeds poverty and dependence all they have to do is look at any urban area in the US. Lack of educational opportunities may not be the sole culprit, but I suspect it is the primary contributor.

It’s interesting that vouchers “were shown to serve as the most prominent way to expedite quality education in Latin America.” I long for the day when Americans wake up and see that vouchers are the way to go in the States.
