Education

We are educated so that we can acquire jobs that provide enough financial support so we can live relatively easy lives. The education that we acquire is also a way to make each generation more capable of creating better societies and expanding on issues that previous generations were incapable of addressing to solve or improve on. And then there is the simple answer to why we are educated which is so we do not appear to be complete dumb-shits when we attempt to have intelligent or just plan witty conversations with one another. Then again, maybe being educated is just to make us feel good.
