Maybe we should learn to read, write & cipher in grades 1-12?

If you go with the historical average the number is about 10% of the population. That's all that was necessary to service the very small percentage that represented the hereditary elite. Everyone else was dirt.

Our current elites seek to return mankind to that historic norm.
