| Message | The Technocratic party will only support this bill if a second Article is added, namely the lowering of the age at which education is mandatory to 12. At this point, those persons who are lack the innate skills to proceed at a higher level should no longer be required to attend. Rather, we should greatly increase the education standards for the remaining 6 years, such that those who are of proper skill may derive the most benefit, without being slowed down by those who lack it. |
