| Message | If schools are privately run, as we strongly believe they should be, they should not receive ANY government funds. All this does is throw government funds at a school and you get nothing in return. |

| Date | 23:22:26, January 27, 2006 CET | From | Northern Lights | To | Debating the Charter Schools Abolishment |
| Message | reasonable. non-profit organizations should raise funds for their own purposes. however we do absolutely refuse the abolishment of a public education system, free until the first university degree. if someone wants more, let him/her pay for it, he/she can finance studies by student loans. |
