Education and technological progress re income inequality

Not just having stuff, but managing the complexity to employ the stuff. Toffler, the Future Shock guy, pointed this out in a telecast lecture -- the education system, as presently structured, addresses an older mass production economy's labor needs. More attuned education would evidently help the less well off adapt to the technological complexity of today's work environment and close some of the gap.
