> Israel has both universal healthcare and tuition free university
This is both wrong and off topic.
Israel health care is funded by a 5% additional income tax tier. non working people pay a significant fixed annual fee.
University is not free. $5K for the public institutions - which have limited admissions. $10K for many of the spill over private institutions.
Now - about those space lasers ....
- Synaesthesia 6mo ago5k is almost free. And yes you pay tax to find universities. Makes sense. Paying full tuition in the USA is like paying a tax, only worse, it's a lot more.
- etiennebausson 6mo agoAs disgusted as I am with Israel's action over the last 80 years, put the blame where it belong. 5k is far from nothing, it is more than enough in any country than subsidize higher education. Which is most of the world at this point.
- Synaesthesia 6mo agoI mean have you seen what US colleges cost?
- etiennebausson 6mo agoThe US is very much an outlier. This give a very different picture: https://www.studyineurope.eu/tuition-fees/ https://www.studyineurope.eu/tuition-fees/
