That idea could be on to something. I guess it would have to be tried to see what happens.
I think what people really want is the economy to be better, and since the economy isn't what it used to be, the popular theory is that at some point, the education system got infected with some disease and started to fail kids, causing the bad economy. When the economy was humming, I doubt many people thought the education system failed those kids. The simpler explanation is that the education system was in a relatively steady state and the economy just went bad.
