The current system is "to create more losers," said education historian, David Labaree. {Personally, I would go further, saying that inappropriate education policies are prima culprita responsible for the creation of an underclass in the first place.} Some even have called this a War!

He was noting the lack of university access for Albanians, and thereof the creation of "a permanent underclass." [PBS Newshour - Mar 26, 2001]
