“I want to know why government is in the education business and why I am forced at gun point to pay for it.”


In Russia, the state provides most education services regulating education through the Ministry of Education and the Ministry of Science and Higher Education. Regional authorities regulate education within their jurisdictions within the prevailing framework of federal laws. Russia’s expenditure on education has grown from 2.7% of the GDP in 2005 to 4.7% in 2018 but remains below the OECD average of 4.9%

Well, Soetoro took the “Student Loan” system over, so most of it is HIS (and his Overlords’) fault.
