Entrepreneurship needs to be added to the public school curriculum like yesterday. AI is taking huge parts of the job market offline, we need a legion of entrepreneurs to make new jobs for displaced workers if we don't want to risk massive unrest and societal collapse.
Entrepreneurship is a skill that can be taught. We didn't use to teach it because relying on one in every 100 kids to randomly become entrepreneurs was working. The other 99 just got taught how to be obedient workers. That's not going to work over the next 50 years. A single entrepreneur used to need to hire 25 people to run a million dollar company, now they only need three. This means for the same number of jobs, we need significantly more entrepreneurs than we used to.
We should also replace the word entrepreneur with something easier to spell. I've been one for like 20 years, I still have to look up the spelling every damned time. Am I an idiot? Probably. But I've created more jobs than 98% of people. And that's the problem.
