Crush the current grossly inefficient educational system, replace today's students + teachers + researchers with unified "online content creators/consumers".

Gamify them, and pay the best creators so they can work it full time, until some company hires for more them since they are so provenly good.

Destroy useless exams, the only metrics of society are either:

Reduce the entry barrier to education, like Uber has done for taxis.

Help create much greater equal opportunity to talented poor students as described at free gifted education.

Give the students a flexible choice of what to learn, which basically implies that a much large proportion of students get a de-facto gifted education.

In some ways, Ciro wants the website to feel like a video game, where you fluidly interact with headers, comments and their metadata. If game developers can achieve impressively complicated game engines, why can't we achieve a decent amazing elearning website? :-)

Ciro Santilli is extremely passionate about this issue, partly due to Ciro Santilli's self perceived compassionate personality.

Ciro Santilli's main approaches to reduce it:

One of Ciro's most direct experiences with social inequality is described at: São Remo, the favela next to USP.

We have to be careful not to make everyone poorer when trying to reduce inequality.

But as things stand as of 2020, increasing taxes on the very richest, and notably wealth tax, and investing it in free gifted education, seems like a safe bet to achieve any meaningful level of equal opportunity and meritocracy.
