| Message | Section 1 is to make sure education and upbringing is done in a safe, maintained and monitored area. If done at a private home, it could lead to unwanted instances or undevelopment in certain areas. It also could allow for a discrimination and a lack of certain skills in certain areas because of the lack of teaching role models. In some instances, it could also damage a childs life more if they do develop the skills they need from home, because they'll be missing out on important social experiences which they're going to lack more of in a home schooled experience than a safe, maintained area. Section 2 is to uphold the responsibility of the private sector and allow it to decide more into how education facilities are run. In the current method, private schools are a lot more under appreciated yet they're still of great use, and in many cases will out perform anything a Public School can offer. But we also understand that a lot of families cannot afford private education and therefore offering a similar program to what we have done in the medical sector, we families can request additional payments from the government so they or their child can attend education if they so need it; this is however prioritised for the disadvantaged families and will not be focused on those who can afford the fees, yet exceptions can be made in certain circumstances. |

| Message | Section one denies civil liberties. We do not want a nanny state. Section two - we could agree to if Sec. 1 is removed. |

| Random quote: “The people's war isn't just a war of destruction, it is also a war of construction. We will build new facilities, new hospitals, new farms. We will seek to improve the lives of the people around us. This struggle will be as costly as the struggle against the bourgeois army, and indeed will be even more damaging to the enemy.” - Comrade X, former Hulstrian politician |
