The 1948 UN Declaration of Human Rights states that education shall be mandatory and free for young children (grammar school, I guess,) and available on a merit basis for advanced levels (college, I guess,) so in performance of this (unfunded) mandate the signatories shall provide and fund elementary school. How advanced schooling is to be funded is not of interest, it could be private schools so long as it admits students based only on merit. Is the Declaration twisted like a pretzel trying to keep up with societal evolution?
