The direct link between education and prosperity has been shown by many studies, of which http://www.milkeninstitute.org/publi...395&cat=resrep is one example I found in all of 3 seconds of searching. Feel free to find studies showing the opposite or negligible effect.

As for your other questions: build more universities to help with large classes. I am unsure what grade inflation has to do with anything, perhaps you could be more specific?
