We all appreciate that education is extremely important and crucial to our lives but is also clear that not everyone can receive the level of education they have a right to. This leads us to divide people into two groups, educated and uneducated people. Both of these types of people have their advantages and disadvantages which can be evaluated in terms of economic power, social status and mentality.
When we talk about educated and uneducated people, the first thing that comes up for discussion is level of income. There is no doubt that educated people are presented with a lot more opportunities than uneducated people. Their achievements count most of the time and they have lot of opportunisties to have a good job so they have better income and consume better food.
On the other hand uneducated people who haven't complete their educational qualification do not have a chance of good job. Due to this reason they have to work in simple jobs and perform hard labour work in constructions. Educated people who earn more over a lifetime which mean higher quality life, uneducated people do not have enough income to make ends meet for their families pushing them deeper into poverty.
High level of income lead us onto social status. Educated people with high level of income seems to be respectable figure for other people whereas, uneducated people are viewed in a different light. Mentality of both groups can be divided into further where it is generally assumed that educated people are open minded and uneducated people are close minded. When a person has gained high quality education they have advantage of great knowledge about the world. Uneducated people follows the same path and practices of their parents and what they experienced in their life and going forward the same mentality is passed onto their childern who do no realize the importance of education through no fault of their own.
