In Finland, charging fees for tuition is illegal, which means rich kids have to mix with normal kids, which means rich families had to make sure the schools the kid went to were good, which meant the rich were prompted to invest in public schools. Finland, take a bow.

@vlepy We have “solved” that in Sweden. It’s illegal to charge fees here as well, but we have made sure the public schools have to take all the burdens while the private get as much money without the burdens.

@Laust @vlepy But if I understand correctly, private schools are not allowed to make a profit in Denmark. In Sweden, there are no limits. And they do make profits, huge ones.
