You gonna laugh - somewhere else I got accused again of preaching the mantra of the system "those who do lots earn the most, those who do the least earn the least". It's funny, isn't it?
My mind concept is taking both things into account. Your own ability to perform efforts as well as limitations that are forced upon your (from the outside as well as from your own inside that you can't overcome). As I get to experience it with education: It doesn't prevent you from being a fan of mindless stuff, but what it changes in you is the niveau of the things you start to be content with. No need to talk about high arts or so, I'd think it's only an issue for people who just put an interest into it by nature. What higher intellectual education rather changed was they wouldn't be content with every shit you'd throw before them as "entertainment" or "means of relaxation". They'd sort out more critically which things they used for this - and this would make them buy less of the lowbrow shit.
