I would have thought that public education ---educating non workers at the expense of workers --is doing something about it.

You're not understanding the proposal. The government makes basically the same amount of money, they just make it up front, and it keeps doing basically what it's doing.

The point is that the government is in a position where they have an incentive to act as your career agent, but aren't really structured in a way to do anything about it. If you could transfer that incentive without transferring any money, you could put it in the hands of people in a position to do something about the fact they have this benevolent incentive to help other people earn more.
