Balzac and the Little Chinese Seamstress emphasizes the importance of stories and literature in everyday life. There are many instances where the main characters undergo change as a result of contact with media. Therefore, stories influence our lives because they inspire the motivation to change. Being able to adapt to a changing situation is necessary for success. Such can be obtained through literature. Getting an early start reading books will increase the chances of success later on in life. Perhaps that is why impoverished children are crippled for life; they have a lack of literature. Society’s next move should be to educate the homeless and poor to be productive members of society. If everyone on our Earth had the ability contributed one positive thing to society, the world would be a better place.

I agree to a point, but it is total education that is the key. Just being able to read is not enough. The US really became a world power when educating the masses became a priority.

Once the Government and the Teachers Union realized that they had a captive audience for indoctrination, the level of US education fell off, and then the US started to struggle.

Education creates a productive and prosperous society, but continued education also allows for effective revolution. The dumbing down of America continues to this day so that people will be just smart enough to hold a job, but no more than that, so that the people in power stay in power.

The poor and homeless should be educated, but they should also have a choice in that education so that as they learn, they can choose the best school instead of being indoctrinated into whatever the educators deem fit for them.
