Yep, sounds like public education. 

Education is very important; this is why I don’t want the government playing teacher.  I mean, honestly, all other criticisms of public schools aside, how do we expect to have a nation of people capable of examining government policy with in-depth critical thought if they are educated by that same government?  There’s uhh…there’s a bit of an inherent bias there.

Because cognitive bias is inherent in the experiences, loyalties, and relationships of people in their daily lives, it cannot be eliminated by education or training, but awareness of biases can be enhanced, allowing for the adoption of compensating correction mechanisms. -unilife allan shortall
