To what end, all that work? If ultimately to enrich Capitalists, that's not a train I want to ride or indoctrinate anyone else to ride (I'm a teacher). How much time does it take to meet our needs in a community living on healthy land, with access to clean air and water? That might well fill our days, but I'd consider bonding with others to be a basic need, something many college students do.

Also, this focus on STEM is harmful. Even STEAM isn't enough. History, Philosophy, Languages, learning about arts and cultures- these are as, if not more, important than learning how to convert minerals into tools, because they get at the Why.
