Thanks, it's always interesting to hear your views. :) About education, yes it's a big business and not only tuition for schools, but also all the prep tests involved (like the LSAT for law school, GMAT for grad school, etc.). Plus, many people take courses to prepare for these tests. All of it is very, very expensive unless you get a scholarship or grant, or have rich parents to pay for everything. Most people are not born with this luxury.
