South Korea to Offer Free High School Education Beginning Next Year

For those that didn’t know, you have to pay to attend high school in South Korea. Elementary and middle school education is currently free and soon so will high school:

The South Korean government and the ruling Democratic Party have decided to allocate the Korean New Deal and the Youth Hope Package more than 20 trillion won (US$16.9 billion) each in the 2021 budget. The funding will make high school education free for all students next year, one year ahead of schedule. The government will also be greatly expanding the supply of public rental housing for young people and newlyweds.

Moon wants to make everything free in his democratic socialist dictatorship.

So you think public high schools in the west should charge tuition also?

The original ‘New Deal’ in America was an abject failure, so of course commie moon wants to repeat it

“So you think public high schools in the west should charge tuition also?”

Combined with a poll tax and a literacy test, it would straighten out a number of problems.

Poll tax and literacy tests? Yeah, like the US used to have and they were freely (one could even say liberally) abused?

At least you recognize liberals abuse a lot of stuff.

Wow, that’s an odd reading of what I posted. It was not liberals who abused poll taxes and literacy tests.

Referring to this? The shameful historic and continued racism in the democratic party in the US? https://ammo.com/articles/jim-crow-laws-democrat-party-century-of-racist-history

Your grasp of history and geography are pretty lacking.

Um, your grasp of the facts and history reveal a lacking canadian education. The democrat party of today is the same democrat party of 1861…and still pissed a republican president took their slaves away.

George “segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever” Wallace was a proud Democrat.

Johnhenry is just suffering a dissociative disorder that ignores LBJ saying “These [Blacks], they’re getting pretty uppity these days and that’s a problem for us since they’ve got something now they never had before, the political pull to back up their uppityness. Now we’ve got to do something about this, we’ve got to give them a little something, just enough to quiet them down, not enough to make a difference… I’ll have them [blacks] voting Democratic for the next two hundred years”.

These “men”, if I can call them that, are no different than those running the Democrat Party now.

Note Bill Clinton was famously called “The first Black President” in spite of his Rhodes Scholarship, endowed by the late Prime Minister of South Africa, Cecil Rhodes, architect of Apartheid.

President Barack Obama was “half white”, raised by his rich white grandparents in Hawaii. He never had a moment of the authentic American Black Experience.

Joe “Joey Fingers” Biden was responsible for legislation that wrongly sent thousands of young Blacks to prison for non-violent crimes, destroying their hopes.

Kamala Harris is no more “Black” than President Obama, being born of British and Indian parents, often visiting her father’s family in Jamaica. Her history of abusing her privilege as a prosecutor — improperly prosecuting and incarcerating young Blacks — is similarly well-known.

But johnhenry wants to believe that 190 years of white Democrats and their puppets will end if only Trump can be defeated by a senile old man and an unlikable harridan.

Yeah. Run with that.

Now let’s get back to Korea, shall we?
