come on @freemo, turning "mandatory job training or mental health therapy" into "educating the populace" is a very poor attempt at changing your argument.

Nobody can be againg universal education, but you want to condition people survaival to job training, which is way less than education.

Or maybe I misunderstood your words: did you mean that anyone pursuing higher education in any possible field should be financially supported by the collectivity?

It would be great to see univerisities full of poor people studying history, phylosophy, music, math and so on, not only for free but with a decent income.

I totally agree that educating the populace in such way would benefit society in many way, maybe even economically, in the long run.

But if you just meant to condition people survival on "job training", you are really proposing to collectivize the cost of upgrading the reserve army of labour so that, the employers could keep the wage as low as possible.
