The Education Trap – How Learning Became a Business
from Economic Nexus: Unmasking Global Power · host Scott Carrick
This episode reveals how global education systems have transformed from public goods into multi-trillion-dollar industries. It examines the rising costs of tuition, the student debt crisis, and the privatization of learning through for-profit universities, testing corporations, and online platforms. It also highlights how education inequality is deepening as access becomes tied to wealth, and how knowledge itself is being commodified. The episode ends by calling for education reform—reclaiming learning as a public right, not a private investment.
