Why is Illiteracy a threat?

What happened to economies? The gap between the rich and poor in society is so wide and becomes wider everyday. Why? Who by the way are controlling the race to power? Only those few who were gifted the luxury of knowledge!

The gap that separates the segments of society should be narrowed in order to balance the utilization of nature. And, to narrow down the edge, illiteracy should be eliminated, if not, minimized. This simply means that EDUCATION is the answer.

Illiteracy could widen the gap and should be cured, the earliest possible time. By the way, the learned have been diagnosing this matter for quite a long time and continued doing the same until now. If there were solutions before, the same were not sustained, maybe for lack of the needed support.

Again, who will do the curative effort? This question should be answered by governments all over the world. We educate even the least of our brothers and sisters. There should be support on education because illiteracy is a threat to society more than terrorism.

Financial freedom should be on top when talking about education. More schools, more good and dedicated teachers, more books, more computers and other educational paraphernalia for the less fortunate. There should be no boundaries, no colors, no religion and no bias when subjecting peoples to basic and useful information.

Education should focus on family, government, health and morality. Is this doable? The answer is simple, YES!

It follows that children, who should be educated, are well-fed! There is no proper education when stomachs are empty. There is no learning when the brains are dry. A hungry child learns only how to look for food, the simple need to exist and survive.

Again, illiteracy can topple down governments. Remember that!
