In U.S. economic development, it is rare to find practitioners focused on education as a strategy for job growth and increasing the median wage. Instead, the focus is typically on attracting companies and high-skilled talent to boost job and revenue generation. I don’t argue this is not an important strategy, but it is only one half of the solution. Focusing on job creation while underinvesting in the local talent pipeline will exacerbate existing inequalities, frustrate employers seeking local talent, and stunt local economic growth. The one-sidedness of our approach is concerning, but what worries me even more is how little Americans seem to be willing to do to change the inequitable funding structure that underpins the U.S. education system and perpetuates intergenerational poverty, as is evidenced in this poll by Governing.com where respondents were overwhelmingly against raising taxes for education.
