Prior to the pandemic, most jobs were not remote. Now something like 40% of them are. Our schools were set up originally to train obedient factory workers, and to serve as daycare centers that allow mom and dad to go to the office. I can't help but to think that schools will have to change to reflect the new permanent situation.
What will happen to teachers? I suspect that over time, there will be fewer of them, but people will learn more than ever. In 1900, 12 million Americans were farmers. 120 years later, we have four times as many people to feed, and only 2 million of us are farmers.
