I think in the 1950s/1960s....you could pass through high school, and walk out into the world with the general skills to achieve something, and get ahead.
I also think as we got into the 1970s/1980s....this path through high school became more of a problem, and as you walked out into the world....you ran into complicated matters. You didn't fully understand credit, banks, the art of buying a car, dealing with relationships, or handling complicated matters.
Presently? Just because you wrapped up high school and got a diploma....probably doesn't mean much of anything. Oddly enough, that diploma got you into some doorway to a university where you will attach yourself to debt, and might graduate to get another diploma....which might also not mean much in terms of knowledge or handling complicated matters.
These days....you might be gazing at the teacher-quality that your 'Johnny' or 'Wanda' has, and look at some pronoun 'game' or lectures designed more as a propaganda lesson, than a civics lesson. You'd eventually decide that you yourself....might be better at instructing on simple basic school topics.
The problem I would ask here....can a regular guy from the 1960s/1970s maneuver and transit this era today? You need more patience to deal with stupid people. You have to contend with failed programs which seem to give you nothing in exchange for time/money. You have news media people who tell you that you just don't understand (when you do).
After a while, you will eventually come to the point of realizing that things aren't really that complicated or made into rocket-science....it's just designed as a smoke screen to make you believe in some imaginary story....like 'Cocaine-Bear' might be an actual real bear, or that Biden was a 9-week long lumberjack in Oregon in his youth, or that dumb idiots can serve as board members on a Fortune-500 company.
