| Message | So, your giving peiople WORSE education, or no education because they are poor, enforcing the class system, having less education and people LESS educated, especally the poor. This is oppressive against the poor, unfair against the poor, and discrimination against the poor,. Trying to enforce a class system, that is immoble and has no mertiocracy. Tyrantical |

| Message | You do realise we still have private education? All this is doing is removing certain public education systems, and unregulating certain establishments. Not good. Full privatisation and unregulation is a no in this field. |
