But on the other hand, people are stupid. If they are stupid enough to vote people like Storms in, then they deserve the repercussions of it, don't they. Kind of like SG elections....Sorry, couldn't resist ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gives an inflated graguation rate because they weed out underperforming students and move them into the workforce. The kids have no choice. This use to be widespread all over Europe. This in turns gives them huge unemployment and a huge dependence on social services (the dole) as the English call it...which gets overlooked when painting the broad us-versus-them compared to the Euros.
