If we allow the poor to be isolated and excised from society we'll be creating unemployable adults.

Do we want a society with such huge losers and winners? Stress causes permanent brain damage to the prefrontal cortex, just like shell shock. (PTSD) It damages the ability of the two sides of the brain to communicate with each other.

But what if thats not enough, what if those deprived of the enriched environment - the tragically uneducated still cant get jobs, for other reasons. (lack of numeracy) Should we give up on them because they wont work cheap enough? Because maybe their parents couldnt afford to send them to the right kindergarden, grammar school, middle school and high school? Each at an extra cost of thousands of dollars a year?
