[QUOTE="Rampant, post: 5762055, member: 52859"] You people act like advocating education is altruism or something. It's greed pure and simple. An educated civilization possesses the ability to advance itself by exploiting the world around it, you don't instate a reincarnation based public healthcare system because you give a damn about joe schmoe, you do it to give joe a reason to go and and become a more valuable peon so he can be reincarnated without con loss. Thus joe has struck a bargain with you, you keep reincarnating him, he keeps working and learning for you so you can afford to reincarnate him. In DnD terms education equals skill point allocation and level, if bob levels he can earn more money, if he can earn more money he can give more money to you for taxes that pay for his reincarnations, and the extra goes into your nice teleport warded summer home. Once reincarnated Bob is now lower level but probably set aside some stuff to make the second go around easier so he can make even more money before it comes time to reincarnate again. Thus you get more tax money. A little greed mixed with a dose of intellect goes a long way. [/QUOTE]
